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.
