Representatives of the state bodies presented the new law, and some of them acknowledged that it still has a lot of restrictions. According to Dimitris Siamatras from the Directorate of “Citizenship” in the Regional Administration of Attica, connecting the authorization of the Greece-born children of full age to whether and which documents their parents have is unfair. The vice-minister of Labour Anna Dallara said that because of the crisis, many immigrants have not renewed their documents because under the current law for that purpose, they must provide a specific number of work days who currently they do not have. "In that way they are becoming victims of the people who offer "black work" without any rights or benefits. There are a lot of cases where employers use people and then fire them without paying them for the work" she said. On the ensuing discussion have been discussed many issues related to prolonged and complicated procedures.

It made me a great impression the phrase of Nikos Udubitan of Asante, that "immigration is not hereditary, so we do not accept the definition of "second-generation immigrants”. We are a new generation which shares common experiences and goals with all the young people of our age. "

According to Rania the establishment of the organization is very important. She believes that the "children of the immigrants who know the language and understand some things better than their parents would not be able to do anything by themselves. Asante is one initiative that helps us and gives us the impetus to strive even more, to chase our dreams in a different way. That is why we're all very happy that we participate and organize such nice and helpful events.” The discussion was attended by representatives of other immigrant communities of Asian and European countries that are not EU members.
