Asylum seekers in shock at swap with Malaysia

ASYLUM seekers on Christmas Island are reeling from the news they could be sent to Malaysia within days.
With the government set to sign its people-swap deal with Malaysia as early as today, a detainee who has been held in the island's detention centre for more than a year told The Daily Telegraph that recently arrived asylum seekers were worried about being sent to another country.
The development came as the government revealed that a boatload of 47 asylum seekers and four crew was intercepted north of Ashmore Islands on Saturday night.
