Hong Kong and Islamabad Considering Chartered Flights to Deport Pakistani Asylum Seekers

Post by Abbas Ali »

Hong Kong and Islamabad are considering deploying chartered flights to send back hundreds of Pakistani asylum seekers, the country’s top envoy in the city has revealed.

“We are working on a special flight to take these asylum seekers back home. There will be a special chartered flight. Hong Kong Immigration is in charge and we are facilitating,” Pakistan’s Consul General Abdul Qadir Memon said, referring to those whose claims were unsuccessful or who dropped their cases.

He said details were still being discussed and the frequency of the flights would be decided “on a need basis”.

“The Hong Kong government is going to pay for it and we will facilitate, like giving them landing rights and approving the air routes,” Qadir said. The plan should be launched by the end of the year, he added.

It seems 22 years is a magic figure for Pakistanis; they took the same time to finally realize that Imran Khan is the right man for the right job.

Recently they have been involved in every aspect of organized crime, as the local scrapping and recycling industry came to an end after China banned the importation of scrap metal.
