Thank you that wery friendly and positive answer, it is nice to feel as a welcome in this forum.
I am from that kind of areas, where is no immigrants at all. In my schooltime (grade school 1-9grades) we haven't got any immigrants in my whole shcool, and in vocational school no one of them was in my class. I don't even have spoken english much, only a 2-3 times in my life (and that's why there could be much of misspellings, try to hang on
). so i do not have much experiences of immigrants.
This year looks like pretty bad for Immigrants.
In finland, there are lot of people who haven't been with immigrants and these are wery easy to manipulate and they are weak for that propaganda against immigrants. I'll say, that the finnish government did a big mistakes for taking too much fugitives in last spring, and that is one reason of 'jytky'. I don't know a much of these things, and these are just my opinnons, but i do not know, how to tell peoples that the immigrants are same people as we, most of them are from developed coutries and these who aren't, we need to help them to live in here and get some job/school place. I think as a western, people agree more easily than cases when immigrant are from africa etc.
And im sure, in some jobs are lot of racism, but sometimes it's just that some people are not nice for new ones in work.
Somewhere i have read; "Finnish people are not racists, they evenhandenly hate all, even them own citizen". I have read, that in Finland there are wery hard to have a job. Is there some limit, that you can live down there before get a job? Do you get a social security without job or a school?
Thanks for answers allready, just tell your own experiences in finland bravely, im more than excited to hear you
