South Koreans protest arrival of Muslim migrants. But why?

[Böri]

Around 520,000 South Koreans signed a petition against their government’s refugee friendly migration policy. Most of them are worried about Muslim refugees from Yemen and economic exploitation by migrants, DW news reports.

“It has become really bad in recent weeks and it is all because Jeju introduced a program that enabled people from 186 countries to come here without a tourist visa,” says Hank Kim, owner of the Core Travel Agency.

Kim continues: “Local people here are worried, we have all read about the problems that immigrants have caused in Europe — in Germany and France in particular — and we do not want that to happen here.”

There was also a protest in Seoul’s City Hall against the visa-waiver program in which hundreds of people participated. “We urge the government to put Korean citizens before refugees,” a rally organiser says.

“We are not against all refugees. But we should not accept foreigners who try to exploit the policy as a means of seeking economic interests and dodging the draft in their countries,” he adds.

Hank Kim, the travel agency owner says:

“We are also worried because of their religion. We have had no contact with Muslim people before, but we know that they all have big families and they bring their own culture instead of trying to adapt to the place where they live..”

The unrest was caused by 1,000 Yemeni refugees using the visa programme to enter South Korea’s Jeju resort island.

60 years ago, these South Koreans were literally treating Turkish soldiers as heavenly, since they rescued them from the Chinese army.
Now look where that came.
Look what these skirted Wahhabis have caused.
Look at them. Just look at them.
One more case where Turks' bright image is harmed because of MENA originated happenings and people.

Erabs you are failure.

I don't know why. Also I know many Turks who live in Korea (and some of them married to Koreans). They didn't bring our culture to Korea. Even they adopted Korean culture (and the married ones are raising their children as Korean). It's not all Muslim's fault. It's business of Wahhabis

The culture rethoric is a politically correct speech they make to say WE DONT WANT. Otherwise Americans gave them their culture. S Korea is 1/3 Christian and everyone celebrates Christmas.
That's a matter of image. They see Erabs and think they are repulsive.
That's sad one day the legacy of the +700 Turkish soldiers who left their lives over there would be ruined by these Erabs since Turkish soldiers will ultimately be put in the same basket as Erabs by those East Asians.

Many insecure people feel intimidated by the very presence of foreigners generally

Turk, it says Muslim refugees, not Arabs, dumbass. Don't make me break the peace with the Turkish members here just for you to fulfill your OWD dreams in the west accepting your lot.

Erab, that's Yemenis. They protest Yemenian Arabs arrival. Go guess why...
The image of Turks is already ruined by Erabs in the West; now the same happening in East Asia where Turks enjoyed a high status.

It's not our fault that Turks have nothing unique to show up for in the west. Really? since when? Most Chinese I know in real life despise Turks with a passion. Most east asians don't give a flying damn. Yes, Yemenis. Yemen also hosts non-Arabs like Somalis, Ethiopians, Sudanese and so on as well. Turks are hated in the west for a very good reason, especially historical reasons, OWD.

Contemporary Muslims have done themselves no favours.

Glad to see many have woken up to the problems within Islam
