1. The deal between Australia and Malaysia says that Australia will "swap" 800 asylum seekers for 4000 genuine refugees.
2. The asylum seekers will be treated with dignity and respect protected by human rights
3. Malaysia has a record of violence and ill-treatment of illegal immigrants
4. Yes
5. They will be processed in Australia and sent to Malaysia
6. Refugee advocates worry that there is no way the Australian government can guarantee the upholding of human rights
7. The goal of the program is to stem the constant flow of asylum seekers.
8. No, as there is no way that the Australian government cannot, as said above, ensure that the human rights are obeyed and there is no guaranteed way in which this will insure that the flow of refugees will be 'stemmed'.
