Students allegedly assisted in entering the country to work in the sex industry by Australian colleges

According to investigators looking into the sex industry, there is a report that more than a dozen education providers have been branded as "corrupt" due to the fact that they have been listed as suspects in the investigation into the sex industry.

As a result of the project Trafficked, it has been exposed how large-scale human trafficking syndicates are using Australia's border security and immigration system for their own purposes and exploitation. Various media outlets are leading the project, including The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald, 60 Minutes, and Stan's Revealed, a documentary series.

Recent media coverage has shed light on the widespread abuse of Australia's immigration and border control system by criminal gangs that participate in other illegal activities in addition to human trafficking, as well as the widespread abuse of Australia's immigration system by the police. 

According to several serving law enforcement agents who provided a private briefing to the Trafficked investigative series, the role of Australian-based foreign student education providers in supporting crime syndicates has been a recurrent problem for border security personnel, who have been dealing with foreign students for many years. The education providers assist foreign people in obtaining student visas despite the fact that they are aware the applicants have no intention of really enrolling in a course of study but rather aim to become part of an "underclass" of exploited foreign workers.

There have been 14 colleges in Australia that have been identified as corrupt, but none of them has been prosecuted, and the majority of them have not been closed down, and shamefully, they are all going about their business operations in the same way they have always done.

According to a statement released by the Department of Home Affairs, both the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) and the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) are responsible for monitoring the overseas student education sector on behalf of the government. The agencies are also responsible for monitoring the agents who recruit students and help arrange visas for them. According to the law, colleges and agents are required to conduct themselves in an honest and ethical manner at all times.

There is no question, however, that something is very wrong with the entire visa processing system. Migration agents, education providers, and government officials are all implicated in these unethical acts, and the regulatory bodies are also spineless enough to be unable to act on time and in an efficient manner.
