  to the aussies out there what do you think of the government policy to send asylum seekers to png and have them settle there if they are proven to be refugees and if not to be sent home or to a third country.

  i believe this policy will definately stop the boats.

  Still thinking , Bob Carr recently said they are economic refugees an i would agree with that in most cases the real refugees are the ones in th ecamps in Indonesia , Hong Kong and other places waiting for years to be given residency anywhere they are welcome even in a poor country.

  Why don't these boat people just fly to Sydney and claim refugee status? It would be much cheaper than paying up to 10000 dollars to a people smuggler and they would be safe. The obvious reason is that they then wouldn't be able to destroy there documents the very documents they used to get into Indonesia in the first place. The flight to Sydney is only a few hundred dollars more from anywhere in the world compared to the flight to Indonesia. Barry

  It is claimed by asylum advocates that many asylum seekers enter Indonesia with false documents and this is why those documents are destroyed but the program I saw this was brought up with the belief it would be better to supply even forged documents as this gives some evidence to follow up claims being made.

  When the new policy was announced asylum seekers in Indonesia have said they now wouldn't make the trip to Australia but would register with the UNHCR. Which is a requirement for their claim through the proper channels. Why don't these people register? According to law they are required to register at the first place of safety not travel half way around the world and pick the richest country they can find. Barry

  Gday Julia,

  A program on TV during the week on ABC I think there was a Liberal party man and a LAbour party man. I don't know their names I don't follow politics much. The very arguement was used above that under Labour 90% are put to the back of the que because they have no papers but under the Liberals that 90% would not be settleled in Australia because they have no proof of who they are. Both the Labour and the Liberal side didn't refute the 90% figure.

  I have a customer a lawyer who wrote the United nations refugee laws into Australian law and have asked him many questions about people who come here without papers and Australias obligation. I asked him specifically about the 90% and he said that was about right. Mr McGilvary is from the states and loves baseball. He plays in baseball teams here in Canberra even though he only has one leg.

  You are right though most illegial entrants come here on planes.

  I think if we have a imigration policy to settle genuine refugees we should settle the ones in the camps because we know they are genuine. We certainly can't be sure about the ones who fly to Indonesia on an aircraft and do have documents and those same documents are lost between Indonesia and here and then we just have to take their word for it.

  Julia the percentage of asylum seekers destroying their documents is 90% and under the Liberals that 90% was automaticaly not regarded as fair dinkcum refugees. Under Labour that same 90% were just put at the back of the que which wasn't very far back. The interesting thing here is that it is also quoted that 90% of boat people are settled here as refugees. Is that the same 90% that destroyed their documents? Barry

  This topic is very appropriate because of some misunderstandings here. Haveing been brought up SDA the history of the church is very important to SDAs but the names of Jonas Wendell, George Stores, Henry Grew, George Stetson and Nelson Barbour are unfamiliour to me. The names William Millar and Ellen white along with other names in SDA history and not mentioned on this site are Uriah Smith , Edison, Joseph Bates and James White .

  Many of the early SDAs came from the christian connection church and didn't believe the doctrine of the trinity however it was Ellen White who smartened up and took a stand in promoting the trinity doctrine which mainline SDAs hold today. Of course there are SDAs that don't believe in the doctrine of the trinity and some in the SDA church of today see it as a big problem as they promote their idears to other SDAs. Barry

  When Australia had the white Australia policy one of our prime ministers was reported as saying ' Two Wongs don't make a White' taken from the saying 'Two wrongs don't make a right'
