So long as Australia sees itself a a part of the World community and gets involved in wars be they right or wrong. and expects to be treated in a reasonable fashion by the rest of the world, then Yes they Should. That is like asking " should Australians be compassionate people". there is nothing wrong with giving a helping hand to your fellow man. The people that seek refuge in Australia end up as Australian as the rest of us.
most refugees come from Vietnam and Asia
Australia is one of 146 signatory countries to the United Nations 1951 Convention and/or 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees. Please see the related link below.
Australia has the usual cats, dogs, mice, horses, guinea-pigs and a variety of pet birds and fish. In some states, rabbits are allowed as pets, but not in all states. Ferrets are also allowed in Tasmania. Australians are not permitted to have native animals as pets, except if they have special carers' licences. There are no hamsters in Australia.
Given that most refugees have little or nothing by way of resources other than what they can carry, most refugees simply head for the nearest border where, likely as not, the Red Cross will have set up a camp of some sort where the refugees can eat and sleep.
Answer this question… The citizens of a country should be allowed to decide how that country is governed.
no, i don't think so
Because they are a lot less fortunate then us
Australia's refugees mainly come from countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
refugees pay about 200000to get smuggeld to australia
They are returned to their country of origin. Australia does not accept refugees who arrive unwelcomed in Australia.
Issues surrounding the population debate in Australia are:Does Australia continue to be a dumping ground for illegal boat people, and where should these people be processed - on Australian territory or offshore?Should Australia restrict legitimate immigration, and if so, should restrictions be assessed according to skills and what immigrants can bring to Australia?How many legitimate refugees should Australia accept, and how should the criteria for acceptance of refugees be determined?
All law-abiding people should be allowed in Australia, gay or straight.
Yes
most refugees come from Vietnam and Asia
because it's humanity and they are people like us they're no different!
In 2007 there was a survey and it showed that there were about 57,267 Greek refugees in Australia but that number has probably doubled or even tripled.
This seems like such a simple question... yet requires quite a complex response. Australia is a signatory to the UNHCR Refugee Convention making them responsible to assist refugees seeking asylum. As a matter of security and border protection this is required to be achieved through controlled entry into Australia. The problem arises when asylum seekers use boats in an attempt to reach Australian shores. This is not controlled and could pose possible threats to the community. Before being allowed into Australia it is a requirement that they be in possession of a visa allowing them to enter the country. There is no doubt that Australia needs to take asylum seekers in, but not through their unprecedented arrivals. So to answer your question, yes refugees are allowed in Australia so long as they have a visa. If they have no such document they will be held in detention indefinitely until they are granted a visa.
