Well - the new jobs regime, that world market thing, requires that workers FIFO at their own expense to countries that will offer them $10 a day and a hovel.. maybe a whipping as well.

For God's sake, don't start him ("Greggy") off again.

No-one cares what he thinks (and, I'm sure he knows it) but he'll keep going on and on and on until you have to give up due to sheer frustration.

Yes - I beleive Mr Abbott is now going to send them to Cambodia. 

Let me see, Malaysia or Cambodia




Cambodia is a "vaguely communist free-market state with a relatively authoritarian coalition ruling over a superficial democracy."[11] Cambodia still faces numerous challenges and sociopolitical issues that stunt its development as a nation. In 2013, Cambodia scored a 20 out of a scale of a 100 (highly clean) to 0 (highly corrupt) on the 2013 Corruption Perceptions Index, which also ranked the nation as the a ranking of 160 out of 175 nations (tied with other nations) making the nation one of the most corrupt in the world and Cambodia is the 2nd most corrupt nation in Asia with North Korea being the 1st.[12] According to Freedom House in their 2013 report Cambodia scored a 5.5 out of a scale of 1 (Free) to 7 (Not Free) indicating that Cambodia as a nation is 'Not Free'.[13] As of 2013, the Human Development Index (HDI) ranks Cambodia 138th place (tied with Laos) making the nation one of the lowest ranking in terms of human development and that it indicates that Cambodia has lower medium to low development presently.[14] Cambodia is a low income economy with it having one of the lowest annual incomes in the world with the agriculture sector dominating the country's economy, followed by the service and industrial sectors. According to the Global Hunger Index, Cambodia currently ranks as the 32nd hungriest nation in the world out of the list of the 56 nations with the worst hunger situation(s) in the world



The country is multi-ethnic and multi-cultural, which plays a large role in politics. The constitution declares Islam the state religion . The head of state is the king, known as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong. He is an elected monarch chosen from the hereditary rulers of the nine Malay states every five years. The head of government is the Prime Minister.

Since independence, Malaysia has had one of the best economic records in Asia, with GDP growing at an average 6.5% per annum for almost 50 years. The economy has traditionally been fueled by its natural resources, but is expanding in the sectors of science, tourism, commerce and medical tourism. Today, Malaysia has a newly industrialised market economy, ranked third largest in Southeast Asia and 29th largest in the world. It is a founding member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the East Asia Summit and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, and a member of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, the Commonwealth of Nations, and the Non-Aligned Movement





If I were in their situation - I would take Malaysia

Incorrect - they advocate a better solution that the current one of PPP in processing (Piss Poor Performance in Processing), which leads to people smugglers making a good living, though conditions often gives their passengers a sinking feeling, but no more than a brief visit for a few years to Maniac Island does.

Now - a proper system of onshore processing and/or international processing would go a long way to resolving the issues.

Put 'em to work on the GAIA.... jobs and incomes at proper rates and an opportunity to acquire skills etc... EARN rather than LEARN to be citizens.
