A Dying Man’s Last Wish

A Pakistani student, Hassan Asif, who came to Australia to study architecture, was diagnosed with terminal skin cancer in July 2015 while he studying in the country. He had been receiving outreach palliative care right after the diagnosis. As his condition deteriorated, he was transferred to a specialist medical institution for intensive care. The doctors declared that he was in no condition to go back all the way to Pakistan to his family, although he had planned to go back to his home country someday and work as an architect.

Because he knew he was dying, and that he could not go back home, he made an appeal to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection to allow his brother and mother to travel to Australia, so he could be with them as he dies.

In an emotional appeal, he requested that like anyone who has limited days left in the world, he would also want to spend this time with his family as his mother desperately wants to be with him during this time.

The refugee crises and what it means for the LGBTQI Asylum Seekers

In the times we live in, there are more people forcibly displaced by situations beyond their control. War, poverty, and climate change have caused more migrations than both World War I and World War II combined and in 2015, around 60 million people were forced to become refugees.

Many people among these refugees belong to the LGBTQI class (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer or Intersex), and Australia’s immigration policies directly create the conditions which increase the trouble these people have to go through during their migration. These conditions increase the harassment, exclusion, humiliation and violence against refugees who belong to the LGBTQI group.

It has to be kept in mind that these people are already coming from places where they have faced rejection and hurt by the general attitude against the LQBTQI community and have come to foreign lands to escape war, terrorism, and trauma.
