Outrage over 'Nazi' law for migrants

[smalltime]

most is not illegal here they are students mostly and builders.
some became resident thru IBC some got work permits and became Irish
I can tell you this because I worked with a lot of
Chinese before.
30 percent of them that I know, believe it or not , went home already.

PRC nationals are often here on either current or expired student visas. They may or may not be actually studying, but they are almost certainly working (sometimes in excess of the permitted 20 hours during term-time).

north chinese mostly studies business south Chinese mostly opt to work and invest at home or open up a restaurant but mostly work more than 20 hrs and govt knows that. They pay a lot in school per year most of them especially the northern and builders went home

I used to do nixers on sites around Dublin on my days off and I never saw a China man working on one.

I remember the recent debate over Dermot Aherns proposed policies on the work permit scheme. Which he later back tracked from. Anyway, some Chinese lady phoned up LiveLine. She was complaining about the lack of jobs available to those on work permits and student visa. She, herself, was on a student visa. She was over here studying English on a student visa for nine years! Did Joe Duffy ask her any questions about it, did he heck. The show is po casted if you are interested.

Back to those evil Nazis in Arizona.

Mexican President Felipe Calderon denounced as "facial discrimination" an Arizona law giving state and local police the authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants and vowed to use all means at his disposal to defend Mexican nationals against a law he called a "violation of human rights."



But the legislation, signed April 23 by Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, is similar to Reglamento de la Ley General de Poblacion — the General Law on Population enacted in Mexico in April 2000, which mandates that federal, local and municipal police cooperate with federal immigration authorities in that country in the arrests of illegal immigrants.



Under the Mexican law, illegal immigration is a felony, punishable by up to two years in prison. Immigrants who are deported and attempt to re-enter can be imprisoned for 10 years. Visa violators can be sentenced to six-year terms. Mexicans who help illegal immigrants are considered criminals.



The law also says Mexico can deport foreigners who are deemed detrimental to "economic or national interests," violate Mexican law, are not "physically or mentally healthy" or lack the "necessary funds for their sustenance" and for their dependents.



"This sounds like the kind of law that a rational nation would have to protect itself against illegal immigrants — that would stop and punish the very people who are violating the law," said Rep. Steve King of Iowa, ranking Republican on the House Judiciary subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, refugees, border security and international law.
