It has been a nightmare for many Refugees and Asylum Seekers as they wait for many years. It becomes a big challenge to find direction in many host countries after getting your status. It also quite possible for many refugees to have lost their ability to positively contribute after their skills are put on hold owing to the "NO RIGHT TO WORK RULES".
After getting refugee status the many years of idleness, grinding poverty and degradation at the hands of systems managed by host authorities it becomes very difficult to confront the employers as the refugees lack everything that is asked for when one wants to be employed. Many of these host countries claim to be masters of human rights. Where and in which industry can you use the experience of "NOT BEING ALLOWED TO WORK" as a stepping stone to a job? When people seek Asylum you are not coming to get help to be reduced to nothing. Do we need redefine what it means to be an Asylum Seeker? It is sad to to know that the Asylum systems and programmes in many host countries seem to have been designed to punish rather than sympathise or assist the people coming from zones of conflict. There are those that are fortunate to be granted Refugee Status without going through the abusive route. The the question is how many Asylum Seekers that have been fortunate? Imagine competing for jobs with people that had the right to work and have been working when the Asylum Seeker was waiting for the transmutation into a refugee. The practice of getting their status after 1- 8 years or even more of not being allowed to work is the worst experience? Many Asylum Seekers live in fear of everything around them owing the conditions placed on them by the departments in charge of their daily welfare. Many of the conditions are like those found in boarding schools with conditions where the "HEADMASTER's" teachers in charge and prefects come to check on you. To describe it with simple mindedness these are modern day Open prisons and torture camps built around communities in host countries that are looking after Asylum Seekers.
The term "FAILED ASYLUM SEEKER" is abusive, intolerant, arrogant and brutal to victims of rich nations' quest to domination of poor nations.
What kind of politicians are nations putting in office? Dictators in Africa and many other parts of the world are not alone in abusing power against the vulnerable. Many of the Democratic posturing institutions leading nations of the world are led by war advocates that believe there is democracy in torturing other human beings whiles sparing some. "The Rebels in Libya have more rights than those that support Gaddafi" this is just an example of how powerful nations view democracy. According to God we all believe every human being deserves justice alas! life is not like that.
Asylum Seekers suffer all forms of abuse imagine, everyday living under a Notice that reads, "You are a person liable to detention and Removal".
It is time democracy should be experienced by everyone, everywhere in the world if we are to be respected as representatives of justice in the world. Our actions and deeds are an investments of what our nations will harvest in future. It is clear many people's experiences are that no evil goes unpunished no matter who it is that is behind the violence. It is time we all understand that seeking refugee is not a luxury. All humanitarin needs that should addressed with the positiveness possible.
"You are no allowed to Work" or do anything that will bring meaning to your life and cause of being a human being. You are supposed eat, and do everything to the most minimum conditions the authorities feel happy to witness. All the conditions of Asylum stay are tailor made to make those involved realise, feel and know that they are unwanted in these host countries.
The politicians despite their institutions being responsible for the wars and chaos that brought Asylum Seekers to their shores are happy to see Asylum Seekers consumed by the flames of war they created.
The politics of seeking refugee has become dangerous to an extent it can destroy your physical and mental health.There are extreme cases of people that have died because they sought Asylum. It becomes a situation where one has to seek Asylum from an abusive Asylum system. BIG Brother politics is destroying the sanity of human beings as poor nations are continuously being viewed as the sources of natural resources and war zones to experiment the effectiveness on military inventions.
Refugees from war zones and Despot regimes are always forced to take the hardest routes in justifying their seeking protection.
What world are all nations creating when we see our pride grounded in pounding weak nations with bombs destroying infrastructure that we will use as an excuse to mortgage national wealth to justify rebuilding?
IF GOD WOULD ONE DAY SWAP ROLES AND HOW WOULD YOU WANT TO BE TREATED?
Let us come up with humanitarian solutions to problems confronting the world than investing in bombs and guns.
Asylum Seekers and Refugees are human beings who deserve to live without the label being stuck to their back, shoulders and heads.
Stop the madness of discrimination of starting unjustified conflicts and reduce Asylum Seeker problems in many countries.
It has been found easy to decimate the infrastructure of Libya with Bombs, guns and sophisticated planes than to go and feed the starving people of the Eastern African nations.
Who is fooling who with all this cruelty against humanity?
