Damned If We Do - Damned If We Don't - The Ongoing Debacle Of Asylum Seeker Policy
by
Pamela Smit
The highly complex issue of asylum seekers, seeking refugee status in Australia, is once again front page news. Emotions are running high, as Prime Minister Rudd has signed an agreement with Papua New Guinea's Prime Minister, Peter O'Neill, declaring that all refugees arriving by boat, will not be allowed entry into Australia, but rather, Manus Island, Papua New Guinea, will be their venue for processing. In an attempt to stop people smugglers' lucrative occupation of transporting vulnerable people by unseaworthy vessels, and risk drowning, Prime Minister Rudd has attempted to resolve this situation. This humanitarian and global issue has divided a nation... how will Australia be judged in the foreseeable future?

Immigration Detention Centers in Australia Are Woefully Inadequate
by
Mark J Winter
Asylum seekers are subject to far less than ideal living arrangements. This leads to mental health issues including self harm and in the extreme case riots. Humane housing is required and should be a basic human right.

by
D.C. Copeland
In the sixties, it was a "missle gap" and, thanks to "Dr.Strangelove," a "mineshaft gap." Now, as states and countries rush to build the first spaceports for regular commercial flights, it's become a "spaceport gap."

Asylum Isle - AKA Apple Isle
by
Pamela Smit
Queen's Counsel, Julian Burnside, has advocated that all asylum seekers arriving by boat, seeking refugee status, be accommodated in Tasmania, instead of Papua New Guinea. This article explores the negative aspects of this strategy, and suggests re-establishing asylum seekers throughout all Australian States. The suggested financial advantages by the Commonwealth Government to Tasmania would not outweigh the lack of vocational opportunities available in the State.

What Is Tamanu Oil?
by
Michael A Frohwein
Tamanu oil comes from the nut of the Tamanu tree Calophyllum Inophyllum - found in Polynesia. Many years ago the natives were looking for a way to protect and moisturize their dry skin, from the effects of the humid salty air and sun burn. The ancient Tahitians thought of it as both a sun tan protection, and a healing potion. The Polynesian women have beautiful skin, and it was thought that this was due to the use of the Tamanu Oil.
