The Dear Utol (2025): Kilay is Life Episode 42Australian government seeks to prevent all asylum seekers who arrive by boat from ever stepping foot in Australia, even if they are found to be refugees.
A harmonious multicultural nation depends on the government "being in control of its borders," Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said at a press conference Sunday.

Turnbull told reporters his team would seek to amend the Migration Act to prevent "irregular maritime arrivals," taken to the regional processing centres in Papua New Guinea and Nauru, from making a valid application for any type of Australian visa, including a tourist visa. There will be exceptions for children.
"This will send the strongest possible signal to the people smugglers," he said. "If they seek to bring people to Australia, those passengers will never settle in this country."
Appearing to refer to refugee advocates, he added, "it will send the strongest possible signal to those who are seeking to persuade persons currently on Nauru and Manus that the Australian government will change its policy and allow them to settle here."
The announcement comes on the heels of Amnesty International's "Island of Despair" report, which condemned Australia's treatment of asylum seekers as torture.
Australia began to send anyone who arrived by boat seeking asylum to offshore processing centres in 2001.
Centres on Manus Island in Papua New Guinea and Nauru are ostensibly intended to deter others from making the journey. However, Amnesty called Nauru "an open-air prison designed to inflict as much suffering as necessary to stop some of the world's most vulnerable people from trying to find safety."
Those sentiments were echoed Sunday by Australian Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, who said the proposed laws expose a "nasty obsession with punishing refugees."

Save the Children Australia's director of policy and public advocacy Mat Tinkler condemned the move, suggesting it would exacerbate the despair of those already held in offshore detention.
"Without offering these children and their families a realistic, humane and viable resettlement option, the Australian Government is only further exacerbating the mental anguish and loss of hope that we have seen build on both Nauru and Manus," he said in a statement.
"These children and their families are just like most Australians. They want to rebuild their lives -- to learn, work and spend time with their families."

It's not clear if the Labor party will support the move. Deputy Leader of the Opposition Tanya Plibersek told reporters it was "a distraction" from Immigration Minister Peter Dutton's mismanagement of his portfolio.
