Indonesia denies offering Australia an island to house refugees

One of Indonesia's most senior cabinet ministers has denied offering Australia an island to temporarily house refugees and asylum seekers.
The Jakarta Post on Friday reported on its front page that Coordinating Minister for political, legal and security affairs, Luhut Panjaitan, had suggested offering an island as a temporary refugee camp.
The newspaper reported Mr Panjaitan had said Indonesia's "kind offer" would come with strict requirements, ranging from requiring Australia to entirely finance the camp to limiting the period of use of the island.
But Mr Panjaitan told Fairfax Media he had never made the offer of the island and to ignore the newspaper report.
He said he had told The Jakarta Post the Indonesian government didn't want to repeat the experience of a refugee camp on the island of Galang between 1979 and 1996.
The UNHCR ran the camp on Galang, an Indonesian island south of Singapore, for Vietnamese asylum seekers while their claims for refugee status were processed.
Many were subsequently resettled in Australia.
"In my conversation with (The Jakarta Post) I told them about Indonesia's experience with Galang and we don't want to repeat that again. In the end it was us that was dealing with the problems."
Fairfax Media understands The Jakarta Post stands by their report and has a recording of the interview.
Attorney-General George Brandis met Mr Panjaitan in Sydney this week but a spokesman would not say if the island proposal was raised.
Mr Brandis told the Today Show that the pair "discussed and agreed on enhanced intelligence sharing arrangements between Australia and Indonesia".
The office of Immigration Minister Peter Dutton did not respond to requests for comment and Labor's immigration spokesman Richard Marles declined to comment.
The Jakarta Post had reported that the motivation for the offer was that there was potential for conflict between the approximately 13,000 asylum seekers and refugees stranded in Aceh, East Nusa Tenggara and West Nusa Tengarra and local residents living in extreme poverty.
The asylum seekers receive assistance from the International Organisation of Migration. "But the people living nearby are left without financial help. This has created envy that may someday become a problem," the newspaper quoted Mr Panjaitan saying.
Indonesia is not a signatory to the UN convention on refugees, and asylum seekers and refugees who are stranded in the archipelago are not permitted to work or send their children to local schools.
Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young said if Australia was willing to resettle people found to be refugees, the proposal "could be a step towards a genuine regional solution".
"We need to establish a fair and efficient system where people's claims are assessed before they're forced to get on a boat in order to reach Australia," she said.
"For this to work, Australia must be willing to take the people who are found to be in need of protection in Indonesia."
Refugee Council of Australia chief executive Paul Power said refugees and asylum seekers need "durable solutions to their predicaments".
"Foisting more people who are in urgent need of permanent safety and protection onto another island, away from scrutiny and accountability is foolhardy at best," he said.
"Australia should be providing the opportunity for people to begin to rebuild their lives instead of perpetuating the problems that already beset Australia's detention system and is harming many thousands of people's lives."

Australian cities express confidence in screening of Syrian and Iraqi refugees
Mayors of NSW regional centres chosen to resettle some of the extra 12,000 refugees welcome the intake and say the Paris attacks are no reason to fear it

Mayors of some of the Australian cities earmarked to accept Syrian and Iraqi refugees say they welcome the intake and trust the federal government’s screening process.

New South Wales cities including Wagga Wagga, Albury, Newcastle and Wollongong are among the regional centres that will resettle some of the 12,000 extra refugees Australia has pledged to accept from Syria and Iraq.

That commitment has come under scrutiny after the discovery of a fake Syrian passport near one of the suicide bombers involved in the attack at the Stade de France in Paris on 13 November, stoking fears extremists could be among the group that resettles in Australia.

Rod Kendall, the mayor of Wagga Wagga, which could accept up to 300 refugees, said he had confidence in the government’s security measures. “We’ve been asked questions about the issue but I think the general community response is that all refugees coming to Australia have been screened over a long period of time,” he said.
Wagga Wagga has a history of resettling humanitarian migrants, including from Vietnam in the 1970s and from Afghanistan and Sudan more recently.
“The refugees become very good citizens and good community participants,” Kendall said. “Essentially they’ve had their lives torn apart, lost family members sometimes, they’ve certainly lost their previous homes and lifestyle.
“And to come to another city where they’re welcome, they become some of the greatest citizens we’ve had in the city.”
The mayor of Albury, Henk van de Ven, said the city, on the Victoria-NSW border, would take some refugees but the numbers had not been decided. The Paris attacks were no reason to fear welcoming them, he said.
“This is a humanitarian crisis of biblical proportions,” Van de Ven said. “If you take the view that you can’t take refugees because you think a few of them might perhaps be terrorists, you’re turning a blind eye to that crisis.”
Thousands of European migrants settled in Albury after the second world war and successive waves have included Kosovans in the 1990s and Bhutanese refugees in 2009.
Prof Peter Shergold, who is in charge of coordinating the resettlement of the 4,000 refugees NSW has committed to taking, has also met council representatives from Coffs Harbour, Shellharbour and Armidale.
Kendall said resettlement services needed to be well-resourced and local operators put in charge. “They know the community and know what needs to be put in place to make that resettlement work most efficiently,” he said.
“Don’t, whatever you do, just apply an agency or an NGO to handle the program nationally.”
The first of the 12,000 to be resettled, a Syrian family of five, has arrived in Perth.
In a statement released by the social services minister, Christian Porter, the father, who has not been named, thanked the Australian government for welcoming his family.
“Thank you to the Australian government for opening their doors and providing a better future for me and my children,” he said. “We would just like to thank everybody for giving us a chance at happiness.”
Despite calls by Christian figures to favour religious minorities, the federal government also confirmed on Saturday that the refugees, who come on top of the existing intake of 13,750, would come from all affected communities.
The immigration minister, Peter Dutton, has said the intake should not spark security concerns. “For a number of reasons, we can minimise the risk posed to our country, not least of which is the fact that if we have any hesitation in relation to a particular application we discard it and move on to the next one,” he said.
“We don’t wait for people to arrive and work out if there’s a problem. The government has been very clear about the fact that we are not going to be rushed and we will take all the time that’s required to undertake the security checks, because national security remains our absolute priority.”
The NSW Nationals MP Andrew Fraser was criticised for a Facebook post telling the prime minister to “close the borders”.
“Message to Malcolm Turnbull: Australia does not need Middle Eastern refugees or Islamic boat people,” he wrote.
About 27 governors in the US have tried to block Syrian refugees from settling in their states and the House of Representatives in Washington has passed a bill subjecting those who arrive to intense screening.
The Senate is unlikely to vote on the bill and the US president, Barack Obama, has pledged to veto it.

Australia to accept an extra 12,000 Syrian refugees and will join US-led airstrikes

• Number in addition to Australia’s existing 13,750 humanitarian intake
• Air campaign against Islamic State targets in Syria to begin within a week

Australia will accept an extra 12,000 Syrian and Iraqi refugees and will join US-led airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Syria within a week.
Tony Abbott – who had come under pressure to boost Australia’s generosity and initially resisted an increase in the overall humanitarian intake – convened a meeting of Liberal and National MPs and senators to inform them of the developments on Wednesday, and confirmed them in a press conference in Canberra shortly afterwards.
The Labor leader, Bill Shorten, welcomed the refugee announcement and pledged to support the airstrikes, but said he was still seeking assurances from the government and wanted a parliamentary debate on the long-term strategy.
The 12,000 Syrian and Iraqi refugees will be in addition to Australia’s existing humanitarian intake of 13,750.
It will be one-off increase rather than a permanent increase and the refugees are to be granted permanent residency. The focus will be on women, children and families from persecuted minorities.
Abbott confirmed the intake would include Christians, but not exclusively. Some of the prime minister’s colleagues had called for the priority to be Christians, prompting Labor and others to declare that the places should be allocated “on a needs basis, without qualification or discrimination”.
The prime minister said: “There are persecuted minorities that are Muslim, there are persecuted minorities that are non-Muslim, and our focus is on the persecuted minorities who have been displaced and are very unlikely ever to be able to go back to their original homes.”

The government is also set to provide $44m extra for the UN refugee agency and other agencies, with a focus on assisting the situation in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan.
The foreign affairs minister, Julie Bishop, said the UNHCR had estimated the funding would support about 240,000 people with their urgent needs including shelter kits, clean drinking water, food, support for women and girls. Bishop said the extra assistance was “very timely” ahead of the northern hemisphere winter.
The government has also decided that Australian combat aircraft would join bombing raids in Syria, extending the existing mission beyond the borders of Iraq where the operations are at the invitation of the Iraqi government.
Up to eight strike fighters were authorised to participate in the Iraq airstrikes but only six are being used at present, the Coalition meeting was told. After the extension the chief of the defence force, Mark Binskin, could utilise all eight but did not envisage doing that, the meeting was told.
Binskin said operations could commence “within the week”.

土澳到底是接受还是不接受啊？

这里有人贴的和CFC上面的“新闻”都不实。

上面英文不是否认了么。

一个人家的一些亲戚流离失所，远方一个陌生人出于人道主义愿意提供帮助。 陌生人不想让他们进自己家门，但想跟这个人付钱租用一个大房子，来安置这个人的这些亲戚们。这个人不同意租房给这个远方的陌生人来帮自己的亲戚们，也不把自己的闲置房拿出来让亲戚们住。

不知道你自言自语在说什么。

笨啊， 我来解释吧：
“一个人家的一些亲戚流离失所，远方一个陌生人出于人道主义愿意提供帮助。”

“一个人家的一些亲戚”指的是叙利亚穆斯林兄弟姐妹们
“一个人” 指的是 印尼。
“远方一个陌生人” 指的是 澳大利亚

还落了一点，“陌生人不想他们进自己家门”的原因是，鉴于曾经接收过他们回家的一些朋友受到了这些人中的一些人的极大的、没有道理、毫无理由的伤害，所以为了自己妻儿老小，不想再受到这种可能的伤害。

忒绕忒深奥。
