Protests to migrants and refugees have been seen in the United States, Europe, and Australia as the number of people claiming to be displaced by war in Syria and other Middle East nations. Now South Korea is the latest to be added to the list with an organized anti-migrant movement.
Over 500 Yemeni refugees arrived in South Korea the first half of 2018, up tenfold from all of 2017. The result is many protests throughout South Korea and an online petition with over 700,000 signers requesting President Moon Jae-in do something to stop it.
South Koreans begin protesting as they don’t want Muslim refugees in their country
Refugees who expected to be welcomed with open arms, were in for a rude awakening. The arrival of hundreds of Yemenis has fostered a wave of opposition giving birth to what is considered South Korea’s first organised anti-migrant movement.
“Let’s kick out fake refugees!” shouts heard during a 30 June rally on the island which is part of the anti-immigration sentiment overtaking the country.
There were protests in Jeju and elsewhere, including Seoul, during the summer.
My Take
This is one of the most challenging issues nations have to face in the modern world. On one hand, there must be compassion for those who are truly embattled and looking for safety in lands with greater opportunity. On the other hand, there are negative forces invariably mixed in with the deserving refugees who put their host nations and their people at risk.
What is a nation to do?
The first priority of every sovereign country must be the protection of their own people. Those nations with the means should work together to establish safe places for refugees even if it’s not necessarily in their own lands.
The Middle East has plenty of room for refugees, but a large effort must be made to establish accommodations and aid for those moved. Refugee camps are not enough, but opening borders is an equally bad idea. If the resources could be combined and channeled towards creating safe places of opportunity for the displaced, it’s better for the refugees as well as the nations who would potentially host them.
New Conservative Network Seeks Crowdfunding Help
They say we have to go big or go home. We’re trying to go big and bring the patriotic truth the the nation, but we need help.
Readers may or may not realize that over the past year, we’ve been bringing more conservative news and opinion outlets under our wing. Don’t take our expansion as a sign of riches; all of the “acquisitions” have been through sweat and promises of greater things to come for all involved. As a result, we’ve been able to bring together several independent media sites under a unified vision of preventing America from succumbing to the progressive, “woke,” Neo-Marxist ideologies that are spreading like wildfire across America.
The slow and steady reopening of America is revealing there was a lot more economic hardship brought about from the Covd-19 lockdowns than most realize. While we continue to hope advertising dollars on the sites go up, it’s simply not enough to do things the right way. We are currently experiencing a gap between revenue and expenses that cannot be overcome by click-ads and MyPillow promos alone (promo code “NOQ” by the way).
To overcome our revenue gap and keep these sites running, our needs fluctuate between $3000-$7000 per month. In other words, we’re in the red and hemorrhaging.
The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring the truth to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going.
Thank you and God Bless,
