Indonesia agrees to working holiday scheme

August 7, 2008

Immigration Minister Chris Evans said the two countries had finalised an agreement to establish a working holiday visa scheme, similar to one already in place between Australia and numerous other countries.

"This will facilitate the capacity of young people from each country to work and holiday in each other's countries," he said.

"I'm a very firm believer that schemes like this broaden the understanding of each other's cultures." ...

Under the agreement, Indonesians on holiday in Australia would be entitled to work for several months across all sectors, he said...

More Muslims on the loose. Unbelievable. What if their culture involves blowing us up? Is that the sort of understanding you want Mr Evans? Inch by inch, bit by bit, they are extinguishing white Australia.
