Abstract:
Malaysia is one of the most attractive destinations for refugees from different parts lives secured from poverty, discrimination and political pressure. Similarly, certain European countries are also offering attractive privileges to refugees. Nevertheless, such privileges are gradually diminished due to the impacts of the ongoing financial costs that need to be covered by the countries. This research aims to evaluate regulation policies relating to refugees in Malaysia and the selected European countries. It is important to highlight strengths and weaknesses of the existing regulatory policies in these selected countries. This study utilises doctrinal legal methodologies as well as qualitative content analysis. A comparative legal technique is also used to assess regulation measures in Malaysia and selected European countries. As parts of the findings, it was discovered that Malaysia needs to enhance its regulation policies relating to refugees. In comparison to other European countries, German offers an attractive model for refugee integration. Meanwhile, the majority of monies donated in Turkey to sponsor refugees come from local philanthropic initiatives. It is vital, particularly for Malaysia, to consider in providing refugees and asylum seekers with stronger legal protection for their safety. An effective integration system for refugees is a good initiative that the countries should choose to adopt.
