The article (The Argus, January 22) reporting Marco Pasquale, chief executive of the Grand Ocean Hotel group, saying "only a small number of asylum seekers on a short-term basis" would be taken in does not say whether this would be just once.

It is like saying I had only one glass of wine - but how many refills?

How short-term? How many families? How many times over? Will he still have tourists?
