Probably we need some critical questions in order to determine merits/demerits of work-permit protocol - one such question here:
What shall be the annual income of an ordinary illegal immigrant in order for him/her to pay hundred rupees income tax per year? Any developed country immigration protocol is well studied and country specific. So a direct implementation of such protocol for Assam may produce "parametric output". "parametric output" - an output that is not desired/wanted for Assam Rabin --- anjumanara begum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Why dont we brianstorm ourselves and think what can be done now. With heavy influx, aspirations of indigenous population and politics on the other hand, aint we in a big turmoil? I dont think anything we express and discuss here is ultimately going to be implemented by our government. I think it will be wise to let our ideas flow. Nobody is right or wrong.

In Britian we had similar problems with Polish and other East European workers in the past. The migration of people from a poor country to a richer country is common everywhere. If we managed to implement Assan Accord fully even then politicians will devise a way to prevent it from happening. I think we need to look at the ways to utilise this hard working community to our benefits and legalising their stay by issuing temperory work permit or something similar and extract income tax from them in some form. If you look at the western countries, they realise that the resource they spend on stopping them from entering the country illegally is much higher and not worth spending. They therefore devised a way to tap the resource and use it for their country's benefit by issuing work permits and allowing them to enter the country legally. I think we need to discuss something in similar lines rather than wasting our time in finding a solution to deport entire population of Bangladeshi community back to their country, which is simply impossible.
