I won't take them into my home because that would encourage more refugees to come by boat, displacing UNHCR camp refugees seeking resettlement here.

I propose we do something other than throw boat refugees to the dogs by putting them somewhere as dangerous to their health as Nauru has become.

I do not propose we do anything for those IMA's that do not qualify as refugees. We send them home.

I propose the Malaysian Solution be tried and refugees on Nauru go there, and any future boat refugees join them.

Ah Ha!

It's only as dangerous as these Queue jumpers & the Greenie Groups want to make it out to be. Why aren't the Islamic abusers of the children Charged. Strange that.

Why would Malaysia take on potential trouble makers? They have enough troubles with the ones they have.

No hand the Camps over to the UNCHR & wipe our hands of the situation. After all it's their job. Isn't it?

Let's clear up one thing here. Being a Refugee means you accept the first safe country you are taken in by. So! if someone leaves Iran, flies to Malaysia, gets a ferry to Indonesia and then on to a decrepit smuggler vessel to Australia they are not "Refugees.
Malaysia will accept without demur any muslim. Do not bring up the fact it is the most corrupt country in Asia. Then onto Indonesia another muslim country where they get the smuggler boat. They had sanctuary not once but twice! What they really want is Centrelink and lots of it!
We just need to keep going sending them to places without said Centrelink and the problem disappears.
Do not thank me it is just part of the service of being a retiree.

The UNCHR Convention states "Coming directly"

JBowyer: They had sanctuary not once but twice! What they really want is Centrelink and lots of it!

Exactly. They are not Asylum Seekers. They are Economic Lifestyle Seekers.

The UNCHR Convention also states that these types of people are not genuine refugees & therefore are not afforded the protection of the UNCHR Convention.

The very reason the UNCHR will never take over Australia's Detention Camps.

Jayb,

The leeches are interested only in countries with generous welfare payments. In Malaysia, nobody gets money without working for it. I will never forget on my first trip Malaysia, a guide saying with great satisfaction, "We don't tolerate lazy bums here". Not sure about Indonesia, but they don't throw money around. I don't think welfare is a feature of any Islamic countries.

But silly Australia pays ridiculous amounts of welfare out to no-hopers. On TV tonight, a single mother is dragging in over $52k a year, and Morrison is carrying on about how it's wrong how anyone taking on a job has to take a cut. Well, the simple answer is to cut welfare payments. If people doing bugger all are getting more than people working, we are stuffed. And the answer is not to raise the minimum wage, because that wipes out jobs. Cutting back on welfare payments is the only answer.

Err JBower, there is a flaw in your reasoning.
Can you imagine a refugee in risk of his life fronting up to a travel
agent in Tehran, buy a ticket to KL, then fronting up at departure at
Tehran airport immigration ?
Does that sound like someone fleeing in terror ?

Is there an airline link betweem Iran and Malaysia ?
Such a person would have to go via Iraq or Pakistan.
So there would be more than two safe countries.

No, the whole thing is one big racket and our politicians of both
left and right are too stupid to see it !
