>> david mann is expect i have director of the ref gentlemen immigration center in 34e8 born, he says the australian government has to come clean over the issue you. >> the first and fundamental obligation here that australia has signed up to with the international community in a global contract under the refugees convention is to pretext people fleeing from parisian cushion from factorrer harm. and this whatever it fakes by hack or crook approach, which we now hear in the highest ranks of the government is an unacceptable position a country that's signed up to the refugees organization. our government at the highest levels is suggesting it seems when no comes to asylum seekers

goal of putting children like these in to school full time. it's also his dream. i prefer being in school he tells us, but we need the money. across cambodia, child labor is still a problem. it is most blatant in the countryside. >> i need money to go to school. >> reporter: recent efforts to clamp down in the cities have largely moved the problem from view but in the brick factories you just have to look harder. in this slum area, around half the children work. as the eldest of five children, she is often the main income earner which her mother isn't working. >> translator: it's very difficult. sometimes i find work on construction sites. >> reporter: a local nongovernmental organization wants to bring her to the protection of its center for full-time education.

there is international commitment but we take our own. whether or not we can achieve 2016 or not but it is our priority that we have to reach our commitment to the international organization. >> reporter: but those children carrying the burden of work may be this will be the year their lives change, rob mcbride, al jazerra, phnom penh. >> a senior specialist on child labor at the international labor office. she says sending children back in to school isn't enough to eradicate child labor. >> we are talking about 168 million children across the world in child labor and that is up to it the age of 17. and here in asia-pacific, where i work, we are talking about 78 million children in child labor. largely they are in rural areas working on agriculture but we are seeing a trends increasingly especially in this particular region towards commerce. and services.

and we find that more girls tends to engage in services and commerce wild boys remain in agriculture and in very difficult and hazardous forms of work. it's not a matter of just putting a child in school and that the problem will be solved. it has to be multi facet, we have to deal with the supply and the demands side of this issue starting with school as an extremely important step because it equips children especially if they are referring a quality education with the skills to move on in life. if the child when he or she leaves school, which is what we are finding especially in the region at the age of four attorney or 15 they are not continuing with their studies but they are entering what we call very hazardous work and sits an alarming number and so their entry in the labor market end up being one where they are even more vulnerable and that perpetuates a life cycle of an -- you know, recycling of this problem. a french court is set to rule on whether former i.m.f.

what do you make of tony abbott's statement then, he says the government won't comment on operational matters but they will stop those people smuggling boats by hook or by crook. >> yes it's a very interesting statement because he's contradicted to some extent a previous statement by the immigration minister who flatly denied that customs officer or navy personnel had paid people smugglers to return their boats back to indonesia. so that is much more ambiguous position. and certainly if it is true, and it still remains only an allegation made by some asylum speakers and also police in indonesia. if it is true it is an unprecedented shift in the government's policy which has tends today really talk tough about people smugglers as --

>> oh, apologies there, we have lost peter chan in mid flow there. we will try to get back to him if we can. but we'll leave it there just for the moment. let's move on. the death toll from south korea's mers outbreak has risen to 11. 126 people have been infected by middle east respiratory syndrome since the first case was diagnosed over three weeks ago thousands of schools closed and 3600 people are in quarantine. the health ministry there says the number of potentially deadly cases is decreasing. >> translator: as the w.h.o. and joints assessment team have recommended since schools in other regions are not affected by the mers infection the schools should consider resuming classes as they have strongly urged us to reopen schools especially considering the number of confirmed case is his decreasing and the mers virus is

unlikely to be an airborne disease and transmitted community wide. we ask the publicist not to worry as much and stay alert while they practice every day activities. okay, let's go back to peter chen the political science lecture you are who we were speaking to in sydney. apologize for the interims of the interview, we had a satellite glitch. you are saying these were allegations but if they turn out to be true they will be damage being the indonesian says it will investigate f it find there is some substance to this, what will that mean for relations between australia and indonesia? >> well, all australian and indonesian relations are at a very low ebb and they have been for for quite sometime partly because of a scandal that the current government inherited around phone hacking of the former indonesian president and his immediate circle, including his wife's telephones by

australian security personnel but also over in issue of a sigh lime issues and australian's stance. interimindonesian has been a transient country for a asylum seekers. and it's creating friction between the two nations it's put ourselves at odds with new zealand who indeed were the country that some of these refugees were looking to resettle in eventually and they have asked the australian government to explain its behavior. so overall it's a very confusing situation. the australian government has tended to take a strong line against people smugglers. and it has, in a sense tried to project a zero toll rants kind of perspective on people smuggling. if it turns out they have authorized payments to people smugglers it will undermine their authority. but there is a logic this behind this. australian offshore detention

facilities are incredibly expensive and estimated it costs hundreds of thousands of a dollar a year to house an an asylum seeker. and it would make economic sense possibly to pay people smugglers to turn around but will undermine the credibility the prime spinster fits minister if it's true. >> this could be a change in the government policy towards migrant, i mean, the government's policy has already been criticized as being too draconian. so what do you think the reaction to this will be if it turns out that the australian government is, in fact, paying people smug thinkers? >> well, i think there are three levels to this. there is the domestic level. and certainly the government's policy is actually very popular in australia by ratio of about

3-1 the policy is seen too lenient. australian has been getting a lot of criticism from organizationsorganizations like the united nations and they don't care about that criticism but our relations between the region are continuer important, we have been attempting to improve our relationships and that will not help at all. so it is a game that is played on a number of different levels. certainly the prime spinster is on safe ground domestically with regards to having his strong policy on refugees. but it is not sustainable either financially or with regard to our relationship with indonesia. >> peter good to speak with you thank you very much indeed for that. peter chen from sydney there. nigeria's president has rejected calls to rotate the leadership of a new joint military force against boko haram. he holt the leaders of chad, mean he and cameroon they decided to set up the force he
