Emigrating in the hope of a better life and going to the western paradise is the dream of many people these days. It doesn’t matter whether they are educated or not, whether they are from a prosperous or average or even poor social class. The only thing that fills their minds is living in the paradise that the emigration missionaries from across the borders have built for them.
Many of them believe that they value us more there, and with this mindset they sell the haves and have-nots so that, as they say, they can get rid of the hard life in Iran and live comfortably in the destination country.
Unaware of the fact that the comfortable life in the West, according to the confession of many of those who have the experience of living there, is completely different from what they have heard, and according to many of them, it is nothing more than a mirage! People are sad here too It was earlier this year that Arjang Amir Fazli, in a video whose content was more like bitter humor, revealed this mirage and said that here (Toronto, Canada) too, due to the difficult economic situation facing the people, there are many sad people.
In a part of this video, Amir Fazli says that out of his monthly income of 3,000 dollars, 2,400 dollars is the cost of his small rental housing, 100 dollars is the cost of public transportation, 100 dollars is the cost of mobile phone and internet bills, 50 dollars is the cost of at least every shopping trip for daily necessities, 50 dollars for electricity and at least 50 dollars for a simple meal in a restaurant. And, in the end, he is bitterly reminded that he has no right to get sick because there is nothing left of his income!
Although the false advertisements of immigration brokers give immigrants the hope that the Canadian government will keep you alive by providing you with a credit card, Amir Fazli considers these cards to be the cause of the misery of people, especially immigrants, and says: “The encouragement of having $2000 on these cards causes immigrants to spend uncontrollably, and the in[1]ability to pay monthly debts to the banking system, along with huge profits, suddenly puts them in a big trap that is not so easy to get out of!”
There is no heaven here in other videos published online, Maryam, who lives in Sweden, shows a picture of a daily shopping in Sweden and complains about the high prices there. When she took this video, each Swedish krona was equivalent to 4300 Iranian tomans.
She says that nine bunches of vegetables containing vegetables such as basil, chives, cilantro, parsley and chives cost 370 kroner, and two packages of bread, four packages of sausages, a package of sausages, something around 180 kroner. And all this, along with the purchase of meat, etc., totaled 1,260 kroner, equivalent to 5 million Iranian tomans! In this video, she also complains about the high cost of living outside of Iran and says that you should think carefully about your decision to emigrate.
There is no heaven here!
Modern slavery of immigrants in Europe
From Holland, Masih narrates other facts for those who intend to emigrate and says that many times my friends send me posts from Iran where they say that if you are a nurse or a student, these facilities will be available to you in Holland. And the young Iranians, in the hope of a better life, do everything and everyone for welfare and a better life, ignoring the fact that the Dutch government only cares about its own pockets!
And no one explains the truth to Iranian youth! In Europe, the slavery system still prevails!
The fact is that no matter how much money you make in the Netherlands, according to the law of this country, you have to return a third of it to the government for taxes. In fact, the government is a partner in your property, not only in the salaries received in all aspects of your life!
According to him, if an Iranian receives a family inheritance and transfers it to the Netherlands, he must pay a third as the government’s share! In the continuation of his video, Masih says that education in Dutch universities is not free, and here no one is allowed to enter the labor market after university, but they have to spend two years in professional training programs, which includes heavy educational expenses.
After that, he should test his luck to enter the job market! And finally, by stating that the slavery system in this country is still alive as in the distant past, he complains about the racism of the Dutch and says that no non-Dutch can easily progress here!
We are all second-class citizens
An important point that the promoters of Iranian immigration never talk about and is often narrated by immigrants in the West as one of the sad stories of immigration is the position of Iranians in other countries.
You are considered a second-class citizen, and this is a painful situation that we all experience here, even our children in elementary school!
You have a valid passport but no travel money!
Ehsan, who has been living in the Netherlands for about five years, also mentions the issue of a valid passport and says that many Iranians immigrate in the hope of having a valid passport and the freedom to choose foreign trips, while the cost of living in the Netherlands is so high.
It is so high that most Dutch people never use this passport in a year and their fun and travel is limited to the camps around the city! According to him, many Dutch people have not been able to leave their city for five years or even more, let alone travel abroad, and this means that a valid passport is only a tool for immigration brokers to encourage you to leave your country!
The painful reality of living in European homes!
When Vahid sold his possessions seven years ago in the hope of making a better life for his family and left for the West, he did not even think that one day he would regret leaving Iran. According to him, living in European houses has always been one of the biggest regrets of his life. He says, “I never knew the conditions of living in these houses!”
He says, believe me, many of these houses do not have hot water for washing dishes because energy is very expensive here. Many people here do not have the courage to turn on their heaters in winter because there is no gas, and instead of turning on the heaters, people wear more woolen clothes. Apart from all this, something that we Iranians are not used to at all is rechargeable electricity in our homes!
That is, you charge your home’s electricity for a certain amount, and at any hour and in any condition when this charge runs out, the home’s electricity will be cut off and that’s it! Unless you recharge at the same moment!
Months of patience for a simple worker in America
In America, where the love of life has taken away the intelligence of many people, there is no news for immigrants, because according to one of these immigrants who published a video of himself in this country, even to be a simple worker, you have to wait for months!
According to him, not all people have a chance to find a job and earn an income as soon as they arrive, and after finding a job and earning an income, not everyone can afford the cost of living in this country: “The cost of renting a house in America is so high. Most of the immigrants live with their housemates, and this lifestyle has a thousand and one challenges!”
Considering everything that has been said and with a small search in the global village, you can see many more examples than what we found in this report. Do not hesitate to decide to emigrate and do not leave your country hoping for a mirage of European paradise.
