Best Answer

Most often illegal immigrants and refugees come to Australia by boat from Indonesia. These travellers are commonly called "boat people". There has been much controversy in recent years both about the bringing of people and the treatment of these people by the Australian government. The stories are heavily sensationalised in the Australian press and Australia has come under international criticism for the way in which illegal immigrants have been detained whilst their applications for refugee status have been processed.

Additionally unknown numbers of people die each year trying to make the crossing in unsuitable, overloaded vessels. Its a dangerous, long journey where the arrival points in North Western Australia are some of the most inhospitable country in the world.
