Cruelty in PNG: hunger strike on Manus Island : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 22/1/2015

An indigent state such as PNG, with limited infrastructure and facilities to process refugees, let alone resettle them, actually imperils applicants once their claims are fully processed.

We as Australians - "welcome" - all new people from all cultures, who wish to call Australia "home", please come through the front door. We (as Australians) abhor people smugglers, who ply their illegal trade with no care as to over 1,000 adults and children who died at sea. I applaud our government's stance in returning boats to place of origin. I have watched Parliamentary Question time over the last twelve months with Sarah Hanson Young and Greens continually berating amount of children in custody. I advise the following, the Liberal Government didn't cause this problem. They inherited the problem. I believe Howard Government had seven people in custody. When Labor gained government the flood gates opened for people smugglers to ply their trade - over 30,000. Sarah Hanson Young and Greens if you were really interested in children in detention's welfare - as opposed to continually negating any avenue for solution with current government - you would support government's actioning for return of illegals. I also advise I am a swinging voter - who has a heart.
