Persuasive Response

 

1. My opinion on this topic about asylum seekers having to wait in a detention centre while they are being processed is that they should have to wait in a detention centre but i think the Australian Government needs to find a much faster way to process their applications for refugee status because some people do spend way to much time waiting for there claim to go through.

I think that it is only fair for them to have to wait in a detention centre because for all we know one of them could be a criminal and if they were just aloud to go straight out in the public they might start committing crimes but if they wait in a detention centre we can stop this from happening and it is only fair because they have come here without any paperwork or anything so the goverment does need to find out who they are.

 

The amount of people coming by boat has increased over the last two years has in creased and the amount of boats coming to Australia has also increased so there are becoming more and more claims to try and process so thats why the asylum seekers have to wait so long because there are more to process.

The Australian government has said that asylum seekers might have to wait for 5 years in a detention centre for there claim to go through that in my eyes is way to long to have a person in a detention centre that part i dont agree with i think that they should have to wait for 6- 12 months maximum then they should be released and left alone to live there life in peace because they have clearly come from a place that isnt peaceful and they just want a better life for themselves and there family.

I dont think that making them wait for 5 years is fair at all that is not right to have them in a detention centre for that long and to keep knocking people back for there claims for refugee status and then to keep putting them back in detention centres that is cruel to do that in Go back to where you came from they went and visited a detention centre one of the people in there was on his third and final attemp to get refugee status and if he failed at getting it he would be sent back to his own country and he said he would kill himself before he would go back there because of what would happen to him if he went back to his own country which isnt fair because he has been in that detention centre for way to long and he should have been processed and let out of the detention centre a while ago.

So in conclusion i think that they people who come by boat should have to wait in a detention centre before they are let out of the detention centre but they shouldnt have to wait for up to 5 years that is not good enough by the Australian Government.
