Racial attack: Indian killed in Australia

[Sino-PakFriendship]

Once again you reply with racist crap that has nothing to do with the topic of the thread.

I have reported this 5 times, is an admin going to do anything? This thread has been totatlly derailed with his crap that he spews every where on the forums?

Once again, we don't want to waste my time on Anti-China Western Whites! That's all!

Students left with unwanted skills

RANJOT Sandhu feels angry and disappointed. A year ago he came to Melbourne from India to study for a diploma in hospitality management at a private college. He planned to apply for permanent residency when it was finished.

A federal government crackdown on international students using trade training as a path to residency means students like Mr Sandhu no longer automatically qualify.

If students find their occupation is no longer in demand, they will have to apply for a temporary 18-month work visa to get work experience and then find an employer willing to sponsor them as a skilled migrant in their area of study.

The new skilled-migration list, to be released mid-year, is expected to favour professionals such as nurses and teachers, rather than groups such as cooks, accountants and hairdressers.

Standing with a group of fellow students outside his college yesterday, Mr Sandhu said finding employers for the thousands of hospitality and hairdressing students at Melbourne colleges was unrealistic; most would have to go home.

''No one is offering a job in commercial cookery,'' he said. ''We plan our future according to the rules, but when we come over they change them.''

The work international students manage to find is invariably in low-paid, unskilled positions, like car washing and factory work, he said.

Asked if permanent residency was their main motivation for studying in Australia, the students nodded. It was an option made available to them by the government, one pointed out.

Gurpinder Grewal, also a commercial cookery student, said many students believed the federal government had tightened the rules because it was facing an election, and was embarrassed by issues of violence against Indian students.

Chinese international student Ricky Lu is studying an advanced diploma in hospitality at a private college, at the cost of about $20,000.

Mr Lu was worried his subject area would be taken off the skilled list, but said he would channel his energy into his part-time job as a kitchen hand at a Japanese restaurant in the hope that it would sponsor him.

If that failed, he would try to find another avenue to temporary residency: ''I'm 30 years old, I'm not young any more, so giving up and going home is not good for me.''

This has nothing to do with supposed "racism" in Australia.

If you wanted to post this, you should of made a new thread.

If you wanted to post this, you should of made a new thread.

It is relevant because it underscores two points:

- most of these "students" are actually migrants.

- the Indians had a sweet deal going, beating the migration system with this backdoor loophope, and migrating without any marketable skills. With all this noise, the Australian government finally woke up to the education scam. Hopefully, this change will smooth the way for professional migrants with legitimate skills instead of 100,000 hairdressers.

Race motive 'clear' in some Indian attacks: Australian FM

SYDNEY — Australia's foreign minister Tuesday told parliament some of the recent violence against Indian students had clearly been racially motivated and had "considerably damaged" the nation's reputation.

Stephen Smith offered his government's condolences to the family of Indian nationals attacked in Australia, telling lawmakers that repairing the subsequent damage to the country's image was an "essential priority".

"Recent contemptible attacks on Indian students and others of Indian origin in Australia have cast a long shadow, not only over our education links, but across our broader relationship and bilateral agenda," Smith said in an update to parliament on relations between the two nations.

"If any of these attacks have been racist in nature -- and it seems clear some of them have -- they will be punished with the full force of the law. Such attacks affront our values and are anathema to our view of modern Australia."

Australian officials had previously downplayed racism as a motive for the attacks on Indians, which have prompted media outrage in India and threatened to damage Australia's 15.4-billion-US-dollar education export industry.

Smith said the attacks, which have included robberies and beatings, were "inexcusable" and were being taken "very seriously."

"We also need to accept and to understand that it has considerably damaged Australia's reputation in India and among the Indian people. Indeed, it has been widely noticed beyond India and South Asia," he added.

Diplomatic tensions between Canberra and New Delhi mounted following the unsolved murder of 21-year-old Punjab man Nitin Garg in Melbourne, with New Delhi expressing "absolute displeasure and concern" over the violence.

The foreign minister said Delhi was "in the front rank" of Australia's international partnerships, with as many as 450,000 Indians living in Australia, 120,000 of them students.

Many found themselves in a "higher risk profile for crime" because of where they lived and the kinds of work they did, which Smith said didn't excuse the violence but "may help to explain why some attacks are happening."

"While Australia is one of the world's most tolerant countries and one the safest, we cannot promise to stop all urban crime. No government can credibly do that," he said.

"What we are promising is to make a whole-of-nation and whole-of-government commitment to do our best to address this problem and minimise it."

This is very close to the response we wanted Australia to give.

Hmmm, lots of Indian Pandit here as well. . . .

Pakistani`s also being killed many different part of the world. Then what happens "Nothing" Media & Government of Pak keep quite as a baby of 6 months . . .

After an Indian were killed in Australia then Shiv Sena`S Hitler "Bal Thakre" wows with his threats to Aussies to play in India as well as he did and doing against Pakistani players.

It looks like Mumbai (Bombay) belong to only 1 man and that is Mr.Hitler "Bal Thakre" you also call India pr today as "Shining India"

Indian media is always were busy and much stronger than any media in the world when its about propaganda against Pakistan.

Anyway, if I keep say that "Indians Are Wolves In Sheep" then I don`t thing that I says it wrong!

It was NEVER denied that some of the attacks were racist, however it was denied that ALL attacks were racist which were claimed by the India Media.

There are reports that cyber hackers have attacked Melbourne businesses in response to recent violence against Indian students.

It is believed computers belonging to at least five Melbourne businesses have been stripped of their data by a hacker who threatens to attack more companies if the violence continues.

One Melbourne construction company says it lost all its data and had to pay $120,000 to repair its computer network.

What a fantastic way to help stop violence. The Indians are really helping themselfs

I heard from my friend (He is from bangladesh, did her graduation in Kolkata then went to Australia for a Master's degree) that Indians, Bangladeshi and Pakistanis are not differentiated there. There were incidents were students from Bangladesh or Pakistan are also harrassed. If anyone here wants to give cleancheat to those racists saying Indians are arrogant etc, I would remind them the comment of Australian prime minister 10 years back who described Pakistan as a country of 'dirty beggers' while criticising nuclear test.

Indian Man Feigns Race Attack for Insurance Fraud: Oz Cops​

New Delhi: An Indian man lied about being racially attacked, claims Australian police.

The police say Jaspreet Singh confessed to burning his car to claim insurance after alleging that he was racially attacked.

Police say he made up the story after accidentally setting himself on fire, while torching his car in an insurance fraud scheme.

Singh had complained he was attacked by four men, who also set his car on fire while he was parking it.

But hospital reports said that damages to his clothes and car were not consistent with his story.

Police say Singh gained 11 thousand Australian dollars in insurance money after the incident.

According to Sky News TV police claim that Singh purchased an opaque plastic container and filled it with nearly 16 litres of petrol a day before he torched his seven-year old car to claim insurance money.

The container and other evidence were found at his home when he was arrested on Tuesday, they said before the bail justice.

Singh is in Australia on his wife's student visa. He reportedly told the police that he was doused with petrol by some racists and set alight as he parked his car near his home.

Singh was taken to the Alfred hospital with burns to his face, arms and hands.

But President of Federation of Indian Students in Australia Gautam Gupta says Singh should get a fair legal trial.

"Police have just charged him. Jaspreet Singh is innocent till proven guilty. His family is denying the charges and we should give equal weightage to the case as well. We have to see how the case plays out. Is Jaspreet going to get a fair go in the legal system? Is the Indian government going to provide him a proper legal representation?" asks Gupta.

But Singh's family claims innocence.

The Associate Press reports say that 29-year-old Singh is now being charged with making a false report for financial gains.

[Abu Zolfiqar]

no i'm just following up on a news item posted earlier in this very same thread.

I take no pleasure in seeing people suffer from perceived racism. I do take pleasure in seeing somebody get what is coming to him!!

If that is being 'sadist' --then sure, call me sadist. That is alright.

Dishonest/fraudulent people deserve ZERO sympathy, i don't care who they are.

Thanks for your understanding.
