Australian govt warns Pakistani asylum-seekers against illegal entry

Re: Australian govt warns Pakistani asylum-seekers against illegal ent

No offense meant. However this is what you fair "Australians" did to a group of people called Aboriginals.



@apple I will be waiting for you "fair and lovely" rebuttal to this evidence.

There is no way to rebut the treatment of Australian Aboriginals.

As to the people talking about Harbhajan Singh, he admitted to calling Symonds a monkey. Later, in Sydney, he claimed he was saying maa ki. However, I mentioned crowds and the Indian people in Varanasi and Mumbai were most definitely doing monkey chants when Symonds was facing the ball. It was the most disgusting, overtly racist, display I have ever seen in a cricket game.

Your kind of stupid, Ray, deserves a prize. I´ve taught you before on the White Australia policy. Should have realised that morons, like yourself Ray, aren't so easy to teach.

Always amuses me when Indian's talk about the White Australia Policy. Conversely, it annoys me when many Australians discuss it as Australians are awful at knowing their own history.

Indians and Japanese (they were our allies in 1900) were exempt for the White Australia Policy.

For entry into Australia, under the White Australia Policy, an arrivee had to pass a written test which was in an European language. Immigration officials decided which European language the test would be in and the majority of people denied entry, under the White Australia Policy, were European communists in the 1920's-1930's (They would get a test, which they'd fail, in Celtic or Basque language).

The White Australia policy was the idea of Australian trade unions and church groups. Unions didn't like wealthy Australians employing large numbers of (typically Chinese) labourers at low wages and the Church were opposed to Coolie labourers as they considered it to be, effectively, a form of slavery. Right wing politicians would have opposed government control over "assisted immigration" of Asian labour as those workers were important to industry. But unions and church groups, were pragmatic enough to realise that the Australia of the period was profoundly racist and if they called their policy the White Australia Policy, no right wing politician would vote against.

In retrospect, it was terrible name... But yes, while people here don't seem to understand Australia, I don't think the White Australia policy or Australian racism is relevant to this discussion.

Take care my boy with your language.

We in India are not used to such syntax.

Please consider as a friendly caution.

Further, you require to take birth once again before you think you can teach anything to me.

I have factually proved that Australians are the most racist of people in the world.

Disprove it if you can.

Keep getting amused and provide amusement by selective interpretation.

Here is the provisions of the Act for you.

The Act (White Australia) provided that any would-be immigrant could be subjected to a 50 word dictation test: "Any person who when asked to do so by an officer fails to write out at dictation and sign in the presence of the officer a passage of fifty words in length in an European language directed by the officer"[2] would be a "prohibited immigrant" and was to be prevented from landing.[3]

This was similar to tests previously used in Western Australia, New South Wales and Tasmania. It enabled immigration officials to exclude individuals on the basis of race without explicitly saying so. The passage chosen was not important in itself as it was already decided the person could not enter Australia and so failure was inevitable. Although the test could theoretically be given to any person arriving in Australia, in practice it was given selectively on the basis of race.

Wiki

History
The Immigration Restriction Act was the key part of a package of legislation passed by the new Federal Parliament in 1901, aimed at excluding all non-European migrants. This package included the Pacific Islander Labourers Act and Section 15 of the 1901 Post and Telegraph Act, which provided that ships carrying Australian mails, and hence subsidised by the Commonwealth, should employ only white labour. Its sentiments were in line with Australian nationalism in the late 1880s and 1890s, and moves to restrict non-European immigration to most of the Australian colonies dating back to the 1850s.

It was initially proposed that the Test would be in English, but it was argued that this could discourage European migration and advantage Japanese people, and Americans of African descent.

Since when were Indians Europeans?

There is no way to rebut the treatment of Australian Aboriginals.

Crocodile tears will not wash the Sin to Humanity and the Aboriginals - the real owners of Australia.

At least the US has made amends by electing Obama.

and Australia?

Sweet political correct talk with no genuine actions. Only cosmetic.

Trying to educate me about Australia through the aid of Wikipedia? Haven' t I told you before to stop quoting Wiki with subject matter experts?

Which part of my "syntax" was offensive to you? Me pointing out how incorrect you were, or mentioning that you are profoundly stupid? It hurts my brain to have to stoop to your mental level, moron.

Conversing with you Ray, is several pay-grades below me. Have a nice weekend, I'm signing out I can't be bothered schooling you anymore.

You mean to say Australian govt. (like the Chinese) have hired 10 cent-ers and 25 cent-ers also, apart from your pay grade?

Let's not delude ourselves into thinking that Symonds type racial abuse is only limited to Indian crowds and get shocked.

Remember Adam Goodes? The Australian Aboriginal Player who confronted racism head-on?

Adam Goodes: Moment Aboriginal Aussie rules footballer confronted racist 13-year-old girl who called him an 'ape' and had her escorted from stand | Daily Mail Online
Aussie Rules football hit by racism row as player Adam Goodes is called an 'ape' - Telegraph

Wonder where does a 13 year old Australian child get an idea of taunting Goodes by calling him an ape? She certainly is no Harbhajan!

It is quite normal for people lacking education wanting to educate others. I pity the students of a certain "TOEFL teacher," who himself is semi-literate in the English language.

FYI, one cultural aspect of abuses when it comes to India :

If you want to really abuse someone, you'd probably go with their sisters/mothers (behan ki/maan ki). You would not call someone a monkey as that doesn't even make sense here (unless it's a light hearted scolding of mischievious children by comparing them with monkeys who jump from tree to tree).
