With 13000 migrants arriving at Munich in a single day, Germany plans to introduce controls

Germany is faced with a crisis – already more than 13,000 migrants have poured into Munich in a single day and it expects 800,000 migrants to arrive this year. Hence, Germany's vice-chancellor has admitted that it was "at the limit of its capabilities" and it was necessary to reintroduce some form of controls on its border with Austria to tackle the influx of migrants.
This has been reported in bbc.com dated 13 September 2015.

However, specific measures proposed to be introduced have not yet been spelt out. As per information released by Germany's Bild newspaper and Austria's Kronen Zeitung, there would probably be controls in place on the Bavaria-Austria border.
Kronen Zeitung hints that Bavarian police could begin to check "to determine immediately who is entitled to asylum" – details have yet to be made public.
The problem of migrants arriving from Syria and also Afghanistan is one that Europe as a whole is facing and struggling to deal with this huge influx of people most of whom are fleeing from violence and poverty. These migrants are travelling from Greece, through Macedonia, Serbia and Hungary, to Austria and Germany.
Hungary has plans to complete erecting a 13ft high fence along the border with Serbia by 15 September. Subsequently, tougher measures, including arresting illegal immigrants, would come into force.

Syrian refugees receive warm welcome with gifts in Munch railway station

Syrian refugees who are arriving at Munich's train station are being greeted with applause and calls of welcome from onlookers and, as the Syrians are getting off the trains, the children are being given small gifts like stuffed toys and chocolate eggs by members of the public who have gathered to welcome them.
This has been reported in nzherald.co.nz dated 6 September 2015.

This has been revealed by a expat New Zealander who had been adopted as a Vietnam War orphan whose parents were killed in the war in the mid-1970s. These orphans were known as babies in boxes because they were flown out of Vietnam in cardboard boxes.
In his opinion, what is being witnessed in Germany is that the welcome that the Syrians are getting is "the best humanity can offer."
Germany is one of few countries that has agreed to accept the brunt of the refugees into Europe and has opened its doors to process asylum seekers.
