Hi J, David,
I was more eluding to people who bring their political, social and religious customs/views to Australia and through shear numbers in an certain areas, as this is usually where the hostels are, take over the whole suburb.
All advertising, signage, shops etc are not in written in english.
Situations like these alienate the very people who the immigrants are meant to assimilate with generally forcing them to move out, self perpetuating the situation.
I grew up with the very same ethnicity around my home and at school and there were never these types issues.
Australians are very easy going and generally won't stand up for local issues unless it directley effects them.
I would hate to see a France, Holland etc type situation evolve.
