I think you mean 'Populate or Perish.' It refers to Australia's problem of increasing its population so that the country would have enough people to defend it against an invader. In 1942 Australia with its small population was in grave danger of Japanese invasion. The British had been defeated at Singapore, forcing Australia to seek an alliance with the US. After the war, the next likely invader was Communism. The Australian government attempted to increase its population naturally, with little success, before accepting white immigrants from Europe to become Australians.
After WW2, Australia had very nearly been invaded so the general thought among the Australian people was to populate or perish. At the same time, Europe was destroyed by war with hundreds of millions of people with no where to go. Put the two and two together and thats why Australia accepted a boom of migrants following WW2.

This policy led to significant immigration, particularly from Europe, resulting in a diverse multicultural society. It contributed to the rapid development of infrastructure and industry, helping to transform Australia into a prosperous nation. The policy also sparked ongoing debates about immigration and its implications for Australian identity and social cohesion.
