I genuinely wish the new Government would solve this crisis too. WE can no longer as a country tolerate the mass drowning deaths organized by criminal gangs.
We can help Indonesia by providing the infrastructure funds to purchase the latest in bio-metric passport point of entry assessment at their own ports of entry.
The foreign minister should liaise with her Indonesian counterpart and share information on those who have arrived by air and subsequently arrive in Australian waters by boat without a passport.
It would solve many problems. Australian customs would then be able to more accurately determine the true identity of those seeking asylum.
