Australians disliked Asian workers because they were energetic and competitive. This led to wish that they be excluded from the work force as the average Auzy could not compete. Being bad workers put them in a position where they were not able to compete with imports so tariffs were put on imported goods that would make it easier for Australians to compete. Australia never actually had a white Australia policy they did not have the guts to bring it out in the open instead they ad what was known as a literacy test, set in a language the would be immigrant did not speak.
