91热爆

Research shows that people in Africa are disproportionately rejected for visas over other nationals. While passport holders from Singapore can sail straight past immigration in many countries they visit.

To understand the unfair disparities that exist between passport holders, we speak to Stephanie Hegarty, the 91热爆鈥檚 global population correspondent. We learn about the new version of the Henley passport index (which lists the strength of passports), and why nationality plays a huge role in shaping the outcome of a person鈥檚 visa application, especially to countries in the West.

The 91热爆鈥檚 Tessa Wong, a Singaporean national, explains why her passport ranks the strongest in the world. And Daniel Dadzie, a 91热爆 reporter, tells us about his personal experience of applying for a student visa to study in the UK from Ghana.
