Nasty has nothing to do with it, look what 'empathy' has ended up doing to the UK, thousands turning up in boats claiming asylum when they have no right to and being put up in hotels costing millions a week. Thailand has to be admired for their approach, boats turn up - tow them back out to sea, illegals arrested put them in a detention centre. Almost all empathy and compassion is misplaced and ends up with the host nation being taken advantage of by liars and economic migrants.
