Interviewee: Debora
and William
For this interview, we talked with an
Australian marriage called Debora and William; they have been married for 25
years and they are still falling in love with each other. They came to Chile
for holidays and they are very impress with our country.
Debora denoted that the life in
Chile is very similar to Australia and also they told us that the people from
Chile is very friendly and helpful with tourists.
We asked them about the immigrants
in their country, so they answered that they have a lot of immigrants like
Vietnamis, Irish, Japanese and many people of Meddle East, but they also told
us that they don’t discriminate that much, because they know that immigrants
are escaping from war or from a bad situation in their country for instance
they think that immigrants are looking for a better life.
Furthermore Debora
denoted that in their country the immigrants who knows the same language
or the people who is from the same country created communities, so they can
stay together in different cities.
Debora and William
told us that they feel safe and very good here in Chile, they claimed us that
in Santiago they saw new buildings everywhere, so for they, that it means that
our country is a country in progress.
Debora and William
denoted that they haven't seen discrimination here in Chile, so that bring us
an idea about how is the discrimination in others countries. In addition, if a
couple of Australians told us that they don't have been feel discriminated in
Chile and that they haven't seen discrimination, is because we don't do that
with immigrants from countries like USA or Australia, but if we ask this
question to a Peruvian person or a Bolivian person, probably the answer will be
different. This tells us that we must have a better tolerance with people who
are not like us, they are humans and they deserve the same respect that we
receive.
