　　Queensland is one of the eight states that make up the Commonwealth of Australia. It is located in the northeast of the country and has an area of approximately 18.5 million square kilometers. It is the second largest state in Australia by area. Queensland is Australia's* tourist and holiday destination, and has the reputation of "Sunshine State" and "Paradise on Earth". The climate here is warm and sunny. There are many beautiful and charming tourist attractions along the eastern coast of Queensland, such as: Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Fraser Island, Capricorn Coast (Capricorn Coast), Whitsunday Coast (Whitsunday Coast), North Queensland Coast, Great Barrier Reef National Park (Great Barrier Reef) and so on.

　　As a state famous for tourism, it is understandable that Queensland has taken such radical measures. As to whether it can succeed, time remains to be tested. However, printing and packaging have long been closely related to human business activities and food, clothing, housing and transportation. It is not easy to prohibit them.
