Semenyih immigration depot - a barbed wire home for our refugees | thetelegraph.com.au: "THIS is the first look at where asylum seekers will be sent under Julia Gillard's proposed swap with Malaysia.
The Semenyih immigration depot, which holds up to 1500 detainees, is usually heavily fortified but The Daily Telegraph simply walked through the front gate.
A riot at the notorious depot presented the perfect opportunity for the Malaysian Home Affairs office to renovate the facility as the new home for 800 Australian asylum seekers.
In return, Australia would accept 4000 processed refugees from Malaysia.
Workers are putting final touches to the compound's buildings. The detention blocks, complete with bars, have been given a new coat of paint, new fencing and the rooms cleaned up in preparation for the new arrivals.
'It is almost finished,' a worker said."
