Refugees, how not to do it, Aussie style.

[Airspeed]

Just tripped over this again. A very unpopular plan to send refugees to one of the last places anyone would choose to live.

"The plan, widely criticised since its inception, would see genuine refugees transferred to Cambodia on a strictly voluntary basis.

They would then be provided with a start-up assistance package to help them integrate, find work and build new lives.

Australia made an initial aid pledge of A$40m ($31m; £20m), which was then topped up with another A$15.5m in resettlement costs.

Cut to a year later, however, and there is a distinct lack of interest on the part of the refugees.

Just three Iranians and a Rohingya man have taken up the offer and moved. Four more have volunteered."

Our taxes at work. No idea how much they've actually paid in hard cash, I shudder to think.
