  • What percentage of immigrants are refugees? 1.5%

  • How much extra support do refugees receive in comparison to other Australian citizens? Refugees don't recieve much support compared to Australian citizens as a whole
  • How many Asian nations have signed the UN Refugee Convention? 11 countries are consisted at the moment
  • Why is it important to note that Malaysia has not signed the UN Refugee Convention? What does this mean for refugees in Malaysia? Most refugees coming to Australia go through Malaysia meaning that Malaysia wouldn't be safe place to live as a refugee.
