More than 50 Sri Lankans who had illegally migrated to Reunion Island were deported by French authorities today.

The illegal Sri Lankan immigrants had reached the island on a fishing trawler.

Reunion Island is an islet close to Madagascar in the Indian Ocean and is being administered by the French. (T.K.G. Kapila)

Welcome back home! Live a life now. We all do! And there is no - abuse/war/or whatever the fancy words you come up with to live off someone's tax money. Earn your living! We are starving for people to do jobs here, on the verge of importing workers.

Sri Lankans have become like cockroaches! Creeping to every nook and corner. Most decent countries now have a 'special treatment' rule at their immigration. What a disgrace!
