| Summary |
Ten years ago, hundreds of asylum seekers left Indonesia bound for Australia. Their journey took an unexpected turn when their fishing vessel hit mechanical trouble and they were rescued by the Norwegian freighter, the Tampa. They then found themselves at the centre of a diplomatic stand-off which made headlines around the world. Insight reunites some of the resettled refugees to find out what's happened over the last decade, and what their lives are like now.One is now a painter living in Western Australia who almost lost everything at the local casino. One is a customs officer in Auckland who thrived when a local public servant took him under her wing. And another is a hotel night manager in Wellington who insists he isn't going to give up on trying to find the wife and child he left behind.Join Insight for this raw and frank discussion in the week of the ten year anniversary of the Tampa incident |
