News / "It's too late for Germany" (but not for Poland) [1798]

Right now, Poland is pumping itself full of Indians and Pakistanis. Whether they're for study or work , many of them wish to stay.

I read an article from the Financial Times a few days ago about Warsaw's streets changing due to immigration from mostly Indians and Pakistanis. Many wish to stay because of work, and of course - as they say themselves - the women are prettier.

Many Poles apparently felt left down by PiS, thinking the party would protect them from immigration globally and making sure it won't turn into a multicultural country.

Poland's immigration policy in regards to Asian countries will make the country multicultural eventually. It doesn't matter that these immigrants are not Muslims or from Africa or that Indian immigrants aren't comparable with Africans migrants. The fact remains that the cultures are wide apart from each other and multicultural societies tend to function less well and will cause friction. It will harm Poland's societal fluity so to speak.

It's only a matter of time until the half Polish and half Indians children are born and Indians make up a significant minority in Poland. Eventually - just like in Western-Europe - they will start demanding recognition. Things such as: "why are there no Indians in Polish commercials and only white people?" Or "Why are there only pictures of whites families on billboards next to the highways? We are here too! Poland is multicultural and its media is not representing the diversity this country has" "Poland needs to stop projecting itself as a white country, because it's not". You get the idea. Those are the things you will eventually be hearing once they're a significant minority. The amount of poles attending church is dropping as well, which weakens Poland's cultural identity and makes people less willing to fight for their own country (or vote properly for that matter).

So, unless Poland changes it migration policy regarding Asian countries, there won't be "hope for Poland" in the long term if you ask me. Societal friction will eventually arise once Poland has become multicultural as well. Unless you absolutely don't mind that; then there are no worries for you :).

Personally, I like countries when they're homogenous. They're peacefuller and have strong cultural identities. It is that difference between countries that makes Europe beautiful.
