My intial reaction to the show was that refugees should go back to where they came from but my views have dramatically changes since
Take this Quiz: http://www.sbs.com.au/thefacttester?question=4What percentage of immigrants are refugees?
Why does such a small number of people make for such a big deal both politically and in the media? (Give your opinion)1.5% of immigrants are refugees in Australia
Because they are human beings and the way they are treated is unfair and cruel. As they are only doing what we would do in the same situation.
Where does Australia rank among countries accepting refugees?
They rank 16th in world
To what extent do we have an obligation to help other people suffering in the world? (your opinion)
We have a large obligation to help them as it could have easily have been us born into thri current situation, we have been lucky enough to be born into a wealthy society making it an obligation to help those less fortunate.
How much extra support do refugees receive in comparison to other Australian citizens They get the same amount of support
How many Asian nations have signed the UN Refugee Convention?
Only 11 Asian nations have signed the convention
Why is it important to note that Malaysia has not signed the UN Refugee Convention? What does this mean for refugees in Malaysia?
Because Malaysia is home to hundreds of thousands of refugees meaning for those there seeking a new life their transition to a better life will never occur whilst Malaysia is not apart of the refugees convention
