Why has Rwanda agreed to receive unwanted asylum seekers?

 

The United Kingdom seeks to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda after legal challenges fail.

Come here and we will send you to Rwanda.

That is the message coming out of the United Kingdom for asylum seekers and migrants trying to reach the country illegally.

Myanmar soccer player abandons team after World Cup qualifier protest, seeks asylum in Japan

 The Japanese are notorious for not granting asylum or refugee status to those who come from countries at war or face imprisonment for their decent against an authoritarian government.    Pyae Lyan Aung will  literally spend years in immigration dentition awaiting the outcome of his application. Which, if past is prolog will be denied no matter the dangers he may face upon his return to Myanmar.  As an example less than 20 people were granted refugee status last year. I can't remember the last time a person was granted asylum. 

A trip to Japan for a 2022 World Cup qualifier is going to last much longer than expected for a member of Myanmar's national soccer team.

Pyae Lyan Aung, Myanmar's back-up goalkeeper, has refused to return home and is seeking asylum in Japan, according to the Associated Press. The Japanese government is reportedly considering the request, which occurs amid a turbulent time in Myanmar following a military coup.

Pyae Lyan Aung took part in Myanmar's 10-0 loss against Japan late last month, and drew attention with a three-fingered salute that has become a symbol of opposition to the coup in Myanmar. 

Why seeking asylum in America is so difficult

Asylum is one way that refugees come to America. If you’ve already fled your home country for fear of persecution, and come to the United States, but don’t have refugee status, applying for asylum is the next step you take. It’s a small subset of the American immigration system, but it’s the mechanism behind so much of the news about border.

Not welcome: Japan tough to crack for refugees

Welcome To Australia Children Please Proceed To Jail

Australia seems to have something in common with Japan.  They like the Japanese have a poor human rights record when it comes to those seeking asylum or refugee status.  They just don't want you.  It doesn't matter if there is a legitimate case for asylum or being granted refugee status both governments will send you back to your country of origin no matter that you could
face retribution from that government.   Your human rights aren't important.  Keeping these countries homogenous is.  Its not only adults who are held in these so called detention centers (jail) but children as well.

Australia's immigration minister has strongly defended his government's policy of detaining asylum-seeker children in camps, saying it is "effective" in deterring others from boarding boats destined for its shores.
Scott Morrison, who was fronting an Australian Human Rights Commission inquiry into children in detention, said on Friday his country's tough immigration policies were helping prevent asylum-seekers from dying during the perilous boat journey from Asia.
 Offshore centres 
But children held on offshore facilities on Christmas Island and Nauru who arrived after July 19, 2013 are excluded under Australia's tough immigration policy.
Under the policy, the asylum-seekers are prevented from being resettled in Australia regardless of whether they are judged to be genuine refugees.
They are instead kept at the offshore centres for processing or resettlement.

Australia previously had a whites only immigration policy.  Does that remind you of another country?
