 These are the asylum seekers left in PNG with nowhere to go.  Australia won’t have them, the Americans won’t take them, and PNG doesn’t want them.  Their situation is dire. They also have said no to applying for refugee status because, if that was granted, they would be given asylum in PNG or another developing country which they do not want. They are also known as non-refugees.  While they are in this no man’s land, they are kept in prison, their mobile phones taken away, their medications taken away. They are not allowed visitors of any kind and they get one meal a day. It is a very negative outlook.
