Yes but how are students managed when their course ends? How many disappear and work cash for hand economy. How many of these education providers are genuine and not a front? How many students bring dependent families?

I actually done see overseas students as a migrant issue, but in fact they add to the export figures imo - sale of education to overseas persons.

Australia is struggling too it seems.

‘ A big increase in arrivals (up 103 per cent from last year to 681,000) only partially offset a small increase in overseas migrant departures (up 8.8 per cent to 226,600). The underlying cause was the return of international students.’
