Want to blue continent.

Find Happy, Meet Woe.

For residents in countries of conflict, like the European continent of hope. The lives of its inhabitants safe, comfortable and prosperous, not fulfilled their bullets whistle.
Therefore they are willing to take the distress in order to get to Europe and stayed in the blue continent.

In total there are people from 20 countries who migrate to Europe, each have their own reasons. Eritrea residents fled from persecution and conscription, Somalis want to flee from the attack Al Shabaab militants and residents of Syria wanted to get out of a prolonged civil war conflict in his country. Each one can dream of a better life in Europe.

"Last year, half the flow of immigrants coming from Syria and Eritrea. The thrust of the country of origin (to migrate) is actually much larger than the attractiveness of Europe itself," said Director of Migration Research in Altai Consulting Arezo Malakooti.

First immigrants from Eritrea to Israel, but after that country apply very strict rules, Europe became their sole purpose.
For the immigrants, they do not matter if they have to pay dearly. Normally all their property had been sold to pay for a trip to Europe, whether it be by land or sea. Costs are pegged smugglers to cross the Mediterranean Sea around USD 5 thousand (Rp. 64.5 million) per person, for immigrants, it is a one-way ticket.

They had two choices, dying at sea or foot and live in Europe. What is clear, returns home to his country was never an option.
"I was scared, I took a big risk, incoming European or die," said Al-Hajj, 25, a resident of Gambian origin.
Many of the immigrants who ran out of supplies while on the trip. They have to survive only by eating toothpaste or other items.

If the man can dream decent working and living in Europe, in contrast to the women. They want their children to be born in Europe. Thus the child automatically has a European citizenship and a decent living, not like their parents.
To be able to achieve the dream is not easy. A woman of Somali origin have to travel four thousand miles for 7 months in order to cross the Mediterranean Sea and childbirth in Europe.
Unfortunately, his wish is not reached. He was caught when the boat is still sailing in the waters of Libya. The baby was named Sabrine was born a week after Tripoli, the woman was still lucky, at least he is still alive, because hundreds of other immigrants do not have survived.

Throughout 2014, there were 3,200 immigrants who died in the Mediterranean Sea to get to Europe. Meanwhile, throughout the year there have been more than 1,600 people. Based on data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM), since 2000 already there were 22 thousand people were killed while trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea.

On the other hand, the rapid flow of refugees to Italy has given rise to a new job. Smugglers and middlemen search alias passengers. In addition to smugglers who should have acquaintance "insiders" and ship owners, intermediaries are important people in the business of smuggling refugees, because without intermediaries vessel quotas will not be met.

In addition to Turkey, Egypt has also become a gateway for illegal immigrants entering Europe, precisely through the City of Alexandria. According to Ahmad El-Chazli, activists of the Egyptian Initiative of Personal Rights, the summer becomes the peak flow of smuggling.
"Wave the biggest smuggling in the Mediterranean Sea always happens every summer," he said.

Data UNHCR says that about 219.000 illegal immigrants across the Mediterranean into Europe throughout 2014. During that period, at least 3,500 immigrants have died before it reached Europe, while since the beginning of 2015 until now no less than 35.000 asylum seekers had reached the southern region of Europe.
