  Activities

• We need to attract activities that highlight Perth’s strength – our natural environment, our wines and laid back lifestyle.


• There is no night life in Perth. In my recent trip to South Korea, the shops didn’t close till 4am in the morning and opened again at 10am. The atmosphere spilled out into the streets with open air markets, food and places to meet were in abundance. The City buzzed at night.
  
  Retail trading hours


• Generation Y wants more choices when it comes to shopping.
  
  Daylight saving


• Daylight saving adds to the atmosphere of the city. Our Summer is one of our strengths - let's use it.
  
  Our Indigenous culture


• Why not represent the indigenous towns around WA through dot paintings around the city.


• Welcome signs could be translated into indigenous language too.
  
  Youth Spaces to encourage arts, networking and innovate!


• Trendy places to invite young people to share, network and encouraged to join a non profit organisation or art, drama or dance project.


• Young Entrepreneurs want a place to socially network and share ideas.
  
  Environmental Hub


• Perth can become a city known for it's sustainability. We could be a leader in solar power, efficient public transport, recycling or water use.
