Due to the growth of international communication, there are more and more
exchanged students now. However, the first barrier these overseas students
encounter is the visa applying. Some people believe that the government should
loose the restriction of applying visa for these students yet I state the opposite view
that the government should not treat these students different than the others, and
my statement are following.

First of all, the main reason people support to relax the visa limitation is their
identities-students. Compare to other applicants such as immigrants and
businessmen, students seem much simpler. They visit for studying or researching
and most of them will not stay for a long time. Secondly, it can encourage the
exchanges between different countries in terms of academic, sporty and art. In
order to improve the diversity, it is a good way to attract different aspects students
from worldwide.

On the other hand, I believe the biggest concerned about visa restriction is safety.
Although the purpose of these overseas students visiting is studying, it is hard to
supervise all the students' life. For instance, there are several cases that some girls
from poor countries will pretend as students to those developed countries to do the
sexual business which can earn the money in very short period. I suppose the
government should treat all the applicants the same so as to prevent such
situations.

To sum up, it is good to have many overseas students to visit. However, under no
circumstance should we scarify our safety only for welcoming these students.
