Risks
1. Xenophobic Attacks
It is generally described as a deep dislike of non nationals by nationals of a recipient state. It can also be related to Racism as racism goes together. They both operate on the same basis of assumptions and beliefs and result in the same level of hatred, although Racism is based on the race and Xenophobia is based on Nationality (Valerie-Claire Duffield, 2010)
According to Xenophobia and Violence in South Africa (2008) the reasons for the attacks differ and they include:
• blaming the contestation for scarce resources
• others attribute it to the country’s violent past
• inadequate service delivery and the influence of micro politics in townships
• involvement and complicity of local authority members in contractor

Additional cost of minimising illegal immigration
The Amount of money, man power and time that Government spends on trying to keep illegal immigrants out of South Africa is huge, which can be used otherwise for the development and progress of South Africa such as infrastructure, sanitation, and housing.
Mitigation Plan
All the people entering South Africa must be give some sort of permit or number which can later help to track them down if it has expired and can be renewed or otherwise is an easier way to find those illegal immigrants.
9. Human Rights
Everyone has some basic rights be it South African citizens, Refugees, legal or illegal immigrants and as South Africa try and stop illegal immigrants to enter, by doing so they might violate the Human Rights and also their relations with African Union, which in turn might also affect South African Trade relations with other African Countries.
Mitigation Plan
People must be allowed to enter South Africa if they are coming from the countries at war or natural calamity but other than that South African must release a set of skills needed or required in the country so not everyone can just come which in turn will also control the no of illegal immigrants.
10. Global
Migration policies are often designed with the sole objective of influencing international migration by either restricting or encouraging circular migration, immigration or emigration(Ripsman & Paul, 2010). Open border policies have contributed to the uncontrolled to the flow of illegal immigrants into countries and in turn generating challenges to the host countries. The fundamental basis for arguments has been whether open immigration policy or restricted immigration policy
We hear about immigrants coming into the U.S. illegally and that’s true some do but they wouldn’t have to if we simply let them in.
Immigration has been a major problem for countless years that seems to never seize. Illegal immigrants do not hold the rights that U.S. residents possess and manage to live a hard life because of the mere opportunities that come their way. U.S. residents are allowed to vacate and visit the places immigrants come from, yet they have to risk their lives in hopes of a better life. Where is the equality? The unfair treatment arises from them simply being illegal, however everyone deserves equality regardless of their background and origin. The deep stigma and outlook on immigrants in today’s society can be quite controversial. The government should indeed allow immigrants to find a place to call home without the use of strict immigration
The other issues that have raised concern relate to national security and unfairness. In order to protect our security, some opponents want to discourage entry by increasing patrols and surveillance and raising a wall to protect our southern border. These measures have failed in the past, and will likely do so in the future. By increasing the money we spend for added patrols and surveillance, we will only increase our costs. We should recognize that the majority of the individuals that have entered our country, by slipping across the border, are, otherwise, willing to abide by our laws for an opportunity at a better life. Their primary purpose is to improve their economic conditions, not to jeopardize our security or cause controversy with people holding legal status.
Unauthorized immigrants in the United States of American border control has being a big problem and concern with regards to national security. There are a lot of people from various countries that want to migrate into United States for so many individual reasons known to them. The United States is a country known for countless jobs which other nations don’t have. A great number of immigrants, however, want to move away from their government reason because the government doesn’t treat them right just the way they want to be treated. For that reason, they move to the United States because they want
Immigrants aren’t given the rights that they should be. Throughout history, immigrants haven’t been given the opportunities they deserve. When certain races came to America, they were always unwanted. New immigration process would benefit many people.
To begin with, we need to stop immigrants from entering the country. We have been having this problem for so long and unless we act now we will not stop this increasing trend of illegal immigrants. According to CNN, there are currently 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S and they are continuing to increase every year. Why should we allow illegal immigrants to enter our country when they are basically committing a crime by entering illegally. If
Imagine putting yourself in the shoes of an illegal immigrant. You have to feed your family, get money to pay the rent, and prevent getting caught from immigration authorities. The consequences for getting caught could include deportation or serving time in jail. 11 million undocumented immigrants currently live in the United States and have a family to take care of. Families caught under pressure in their own country might not have a choice but to enter a country illegally. Others would say that immigration laws should not let illegal immigrants into the US regardless of the circumstances, but these Immigration laws are unorganized and broken because millions of undocumented
Immigration is a kind of movement of people into destination land, which can be traced back to a million years ago. Also, the debate over whether immigrants should be given more rights has been an intractable problem for a long period. According to statistics from Wikipedia, as for 2005, the United Nations reported that there were nearly 191 million international immigrants worldwide, about three percent of the world 's population (Immigration). Although it does not seem to take up a large proportion, actually the amount of the immigrant population is particularly huge. In this way, policies on immigration are considered remarkably significant. Moreover, recently the attacks in European countries have also poured fuel on the already-heated debate over immigration policy. In most cases, local citizens and governments do not welcome immigrants into their own country, which is partly due to the discrimination. Obviously, it is unfair to them. Immigrants should be treated equally and given more rights than the rights they possess now because they contribute to boosting economy, creating a harmonious society and they are legal immigrants.
In today society the number of unlawful immigrates is at an all-time high. In the United States approximate 2 million illegal immigrates to enter or try to enter the courtiers, and that number has arisen in the last decade (Lee, 2015). There are about 41 million immigrants living in the United States. There are about 8 million illegal unauthorized immigrates living in the United States (Lee, 2015). The problem is that why some immigrate comes looking for work, so they can support their family back home, many have come to the United States in order to flee from the violence and the corruption. That is going on in Mexico, Central American, and oversea and that is the problem. Each 2 years Senator and President all try to figure out how to deal
Illegal immigration has become a huge issue in the United States, it is estimated that there are about twelve million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. today and that number is growing larger every day. This issue has caused multiple social, economic, safety, and law issues within the country. The state and federal government is using billions of dollars on things such as school, welfare, and medical and receiving minimal or no money in return simply because they are giving out the money to illegal immigrants who do not pay taxes to help fund things. Even though illegal immigrants help the economy, take low paying jobs, and improve the overall image of America, the U.S. must not allow any persons who enter this country illegally to
They do not have access to clean water and food for most of they life. Most of these people have no hope for getting better life standers. Because this population is too extensive, it is challenging for private organizations to help them. The United States is one of the few countries that can assist these people. Stopping immigrants from entering the United State will not solve the world hunger(
Anybody should be aloud to immigrate to the U.S.A. The more people immigrate to U.S.A. the more people there are to fill jobs and pay taxes. The U.S.A. is also a place where people can feel safe and be free and should be deprived of that. People can live happily with their families and kids. Immigrants can have easy access to clothing, homes, jobs, and food. In the U.S.A immigrants can live under a good sturdy government.
The government of South Africa played a huge role in apartheid. During apartheid the government of South Africa worked to take away the citizenship of the Blacks with the laws (“History of South Africa in the apartheid era”). “Social rights, political rights, educational opportunities, and economic status were all determined by the group a person belonged to” (History of South Africa in the apartheid era). Black people were denied by the government the option of appealing courts against forced removals (“History of South Africa in the apartheid era”). Since the government had established laws prohibiting social contact between the races separate schools and public places were set up for the different races (“History of South Africa in the apartheid era”). The government even tried to segregate churches in 1957 but failed (Pascoe, 80)
Many of the contemporary issues in South Africa can easily be associated with the apartheid laws which devastated the country. The people of South Africa struggle day by day to reverse “the most cruel, yet well-crafted,” horrific tactic “of social engineering.” The concept behind apartheid emerged in 1948 when the nationalist party took over government, and the all-white government enforced “racial segregation under a system of legislation” . The central issues stem from 50 years of apartheid include poverty, income inequality, land ownership rates and many other long term affects that still plague the brunt of the South African population while the small white minority still enjoy much of the wealth, most of the land and opportunities
