The Coalition wants to fast-track the "special investor visa" scheme created by Labor to lure more entrepreneurs from China, India and the Middle East.
So far, 28 of the "888-class" visas have been approved, including 15 in Victoria, nine in NSW and two each in Queensland and Western Australia. The first was a Chinese toy maker who invested $5 million in Victorian Government bonds to bring his young family to Australia.
