| Wow! Amazing stats about illegal immigrants. Now I see the problem, they are just too darn popular! Land of hope and dreams eh. Actually, to stop in Australia for a one hour tarmack-sit (that didn't even involve getting off the plane, just loading passengers on) from NZ to Malaysia, my Chinese friend had to get an Australian visa. On the way back, only Asians had their passports double checked by Australian officals after the Malaysian ones. I thought it was the most rascist thing out and was really annoyed, but my Chinese friend took it calmly since she knew many Chinese entered illegally. Do you think its big countries that can't police it? We don't really have that kind of problem here (New Zealand). Because if you want to stay longer you just ask for a visa and they give it to you. Also maybe because we don't have as high status as the US, not as popular!! The problem we do have is of students coming to study but not studying and opening dodgy illegal $2 shops with stuff they imported in their suitcases. |
