Great appeal from the minority people.Great support from the Irish Counter part.This is very simple for minister.Work permiter holder's are slave for their current employer.Who use them inhuman way with lower payment.Honestly those worker are very hard worker and they work for nothing....
I'm a SA Physio who has worked and paid taxes in Ireland for 2 years on the green card permit scheme. I was the physio for the Clare senior and U/21 Hurlers who won the All Ireland last year! I am in the process of changing employer but since Oct 2009 I havebeen struggling to get a new permit. I first applied for a new green card but that was then "conveniently" removed from the elligible list, and then applied for a work permit. To date it has taken 5 months!Nothing yet! How fair is that????
1st: Irish Celtic Tiger was possible because of migrant workers.
2nd: It was my decision to come couple years ago. I *WAS PROMISED* (on the official ENTEMP website) that after 2 years on Green Card scheme (scheme for high skilled stuff) I will be able to apply for the Long Term Residence. I paid 1000 for this Green Card, but they "changed their mind" and now I have to wait another 3 years to apply for LTR (and wait in line another 3 years). Do you really think that is honest?
@OgreSwamp I understand its terrible you have to wait another 3years. Im also aware you have to survive like another person in Ireland.
Migrant workers are been abused what precentage? i dont know. I make it short and TRUE. I knew chinese workers (2 guys & 1 girl) who were living near me worked in a factory for very low pay from 8am to 6pm then the girl hitched hiked 10miles for 2nd job that day. Before she ever got her 2nd job.. they did not have enough food to feed themsevles.
@OOjiBoy : You miserably fail in conveying your message. We come to study, not to enjoy the country and other pleasure...inquire on how the irish economy thrives on foreign student's educations fees. It is a risk all of them take to study in a better deemed university, the one in which u and E!1REANN might have had education in. Having said that Ireland gives the job hunting time of 6 months v/s 2 years in UK. Very Unfair for the foreign students...
Nobody kidnapped them from their own countries and forced them to come here. They were quite willing to accept the system when they applied for work their permits in the first place. Anyway, there is not enough work for our own people today, we shouldn't be issuing any more work permits let alone renewing the existing ones. The system only feeds the capitalists and those of you on the left are their useful idiots.

No migrant has the right to come to Ireland. The Irish have the right to let whoever they please into their own country.
