Chairman of BHP Billiton Jac Nasser has called for construction of a resources centre in Australia to address the skills shortage in the resources industry, reports Adelaide Now.

Nasser said Australia could suffer a decline in living standards unless it lifts its productivity levels through initiatives such as creating a “global resources centre of excellence”. “Without productivity improvements, it’s hard to see how Australia can address the challenges that we face, including climate change, an ageing population and a high exchange rate,” Mr Nasser told a luncheon in Sydney on Wednesday.
