JAKARTA - The British government on Sunday, August 24 pledged to reform the asylum application system amid anti-migrant demonstrations that erupted at many migrant shelter points in the UK.
Citing AFP, Sunday, August 24, the British Government said it would soon form an independent body to process appeals from asylum applicants who were previously constrained.
The effort to end the large number of migrants stationed in UK Government-funded hotels has led to dissatisfaction with some people.
The Labor-controlled government said on Friday it would appeal a court ruling banning them from accommodating asylum seekers at a hotel in southeastern England.

The ruling sparked a wave of protests and retaliatory protests outside hotels hosting asylum seekers across the country.
Demonstrations with the slogan "Erade the Asylum System" were held on Saturday, August 23 in several cities in England, including Bristol, Exeter, Tamworth, Cannock, Nuneaton, Liverpool, Wakefield, Newcastle, Aberdeen, Perth, and in central London.
Chaos broke out in a number of demonstration sites which were also filled with rival demonstrators. One of them in Bristol, the police separated the opposing masses. Police were also involved in clashes with protesters in the city.
"Our officers have handled a very challenging situation very well," said Keith Smith, of the Avon Police and Somerset.
"Although there were some moments of annoyance, we are pleased to say that the two protests have passed without any significant incidents," he added.
Police noted 11 demonstrators were arrested for various violations, including drunken, violating order, and attacks on protests in Liverpool.
A wave of demonstrations with the same call emerged outside a hotel in Epping, southeastern England, after a resident was charged with sexually abusing a 14-year-old girl.
