Saudi teen detained in Bangkok could realise her dream of living in AustraliaAustralia has urged the UNHCR to process the Saudi woman's claim 'expeditiously' amid a report she will be granted a humanitarian visa. Let's hope so Just one out of character humanitarian act by this Government would be refreshing. Seeing will be believing. I hope they act to accept this young woman’s request for life saving refuge in Australia. But she's an islamophobe, we want inclusion don't we?
