I can't believe these thug Asian losers. The army should take our ship back and push the bastards into the sea.

there is a lot of implication involved - the ship's flag is australia. Meaning it is under the jurisdiction of Australia. The Indonesians aren't that stupid to jump from one hot soup into a bigger pot of hot soup.

check up on maritime laws

Perhaps the Customs Ship could smuggle them into Malaysia after dark.

They were in Indonesia's are of responsibility for sea rescue and the Indonesians asked the Aussies of they had a ship near and would they respond to the distress signal. International law says each country is responsible for those within its a international recuse area, so it's Indonesia who should take them.

They're in a port, so throw them over the side and let them swim as they've worn out their welcome and we certainly don't want people like this who are so disruptive in Aus. There's enough religious idiots here as it is.

what are they going to do when they are in aust :
like all refugees they got to have a house and food and school

then if no job become unemployed stats, if they have a job, the job is from someone who is already here

the children will get study money

most making babies to have ausborn kids this means more wealth sharing

more refugees means poorer us

If every government did the same, the people would be forced to stay where they are and solve their countries problems instead of moving elsewhere and changing it to suit them.

I wonder how many migrants actually vote green. They tend to favor labor.

Yes, you are right on the above. But some how they managed to hoodwink our customs to attend to it.The Indonesians would definitely prefer to let that refugee boat SINK than to send one of their own ships to rescue them. They have had enough problems from their existing brood of refugees.

So now the problem is the ship, not the rescue area. In order for them to remove the "refugees" from the ship without angering the international community + without breaking any laws, they would need permission from the kevin rude government! This is where the stalemate is.

The "refugees" were being taught to capitalize on the stupid human right laws/system. Drill a hole in the boat, set fire, hunger strikes are just some of the tricks being taught to them by the smugglers in order to get australia citizenship.

They are Tamils right? Then why don't they seek asylum in India rather than traveling half way around the world to Australia?

I've been trying to get an answer to that question from the sri lankans for a couple of weeks.
seems bloody obvious that tamils would head across the strait to Tamil Nadu in India if they were being persecuted.

wicked me.

since ocean viking could sail a couple thousand km to tanjung pinang....why not sail another few thousand km to sri lanka and offload them there? I am sure the Sri Lankan government would love to have their citizens back.

Because they only want to live with white people

Typical asians and africans, they see white skin as glamourous and high class

That is why you see many asian women white men couples

That is why they don't want to sail to japan which is also advanced

Paul Keating used to say that "Australia is a part of Asia". But the reality is it is because Australia is not part of Asia that these people want to come to Australia to live. Can't blame them for trying and you can't blame Australia for saying no.
