What next for Germany's asylum seekers?

 

中東戰火不息，近四百多萬敍利亞人流離失所，希望在歐洲重過新生。

不過，想在他鄉找到安身立命之處，並不容易。橫在他們面前的，是重重入境關卡、饑餓甚至乎死亡。即使僥倖到達德國者，前路仍然殊不容易。

今集，兩位主持會跟大家了解敍利亞難民的困境。

 

An application for asylum is made at the reception centre on arrival, where personal details, fingerprints and photographs (for those over 14) are taken. A temporary permission to stay is granted. If granted refugee status, a residence permit for three years will be granted. After this time a permanent residence permit can be applied for.
