just to tell you more about her, she was a 17 year old Sudanese girl living in Malaysia under a student visa. She turned 18 in March and that's also going to be the time she finish her third semester of Foundation studies. She plans to leave the country before her parents can make her start her Bachelor's degree, but she has no idea what to do. They have been mentally and emotionally abusive all her life, to the point where she has thought of and attempted suicide. Things only get worse and she stays locked in her room all day now because talking to them genuinely hurts her and affects her mood and mental well-being. She can not stand it here anymore. She has friends in Australia who are willing to help pay for her plane tickets and are offering her a place to stay until she can get herself sorted. They have been a huge support and probably one of the only reasons she's still even alive.The big issue is finding a visa that's valid for her to stay there, maybe even gain citizenship, but she has no idea what to do. Could anyone help? What should she do? and if Australia isn't a good option, where else can she go? Her parents are like all arabs, destroying her peice by piece..no views and to just shut up and wait to finish your degree so they can marry her off and thats it.
