Abstract: Abstract Public opinion is always an important effect that influences the direction of countries’ immigration policy while the evaluation of immigration policy based on online public opinion has a significant theoretical and practical means. This project adopts a sentiment analysis and LDA analysis to evaluate the attitude of online public opinion toward Australia’s 2023 new immigration policy for New Zealand citizens and identify the main public concerns about this policy. For the new policy in 2023, harvest public opinion information, maintain the natural language processing technology to analyze internet public opinion. Research on public attitudes and attention about the new policy from sentiment score and Latent Dirichlet Allocation analysis. Based on the results of that two-analysis method, this project then raises related suggestions for Australia policymakers in their future immigration policy-making.
