Immigration Minister Peter Dutton recently told SKY News that illiterate refugees will be taking Australian jobs or costing money for the taxpayers. Mr Dutton has come under fire from some quarters after making those comments. Sydney resident Om Dhungel has received a "lifetime achievement award" from New South Wales government for his work in helping Bhutanese refugees in Australia. A former refugee himself, Mr Dhungel spoke to SBS Nepali about what he thought of the immigation minister's comments.
