and what about those who are waiting?

 

It is very sad but it is probably best to ask those Australians that keep sending their relatives money to get on boats, most on waiting lists don't have that luxury.

see here is the thing, "people who send them money" that in itself is illegal, isn't it? (for that purpose)

 

There are thousands in refugee camps, but they can't leave because they have no papers. There are people whio can afford to send them money, but they don't, because they respect our laws and know it is illegal.

 

There are over 500 kids atm, all finished grade 12 to an Australian standard and with places in Australian Universities. They have sponsorship to stay here, and their uni fees paid for by fundraisers etc too, so no expense to the Australian public, and yet they are not allowed to come, they have to wait.

Which refugee camp are they living and getting educated in?

Here is one, there are others in Mae Sot
