Description:

Australia’s meat processing industry is one of many that relies heavily on migrant workers, to do jobs that Australian residents often aren’t willing to do. 


Many of those migrant workers come from China, with the promise that hard work will lead to permanent residency in Australia. But for some that promise is never delivered on.


Today, writer for The Monthly André Dao on how Australia’s immigration system exploits the hopes and hard labour of migrant workers. 

 

Guest: Writers for The Monthly André Dao, Michael Green and Sherry Huang.
