A Hazara asylum seeker who reached Australia by boat after fleeing persecution in Afghanistan has welcomed changes to visa arrangements that may enable him to meet his young daughter for the first time and reunite with his wife.
Rohullah Hussaini is among the 19,000 asylum seekers who arrived in the country prior to Operation Sovereign Borders who can now apply to stay permanently, following the federal government's decision last week to abolish the temporary protection visa (TPV).
