This article is a short report drawn from a research on the issue of the Afghan refugees in Australia (1999-2002). Using the infamous "boat people" case as illustration, the research was intended provide careful observation on the concept "human security/' a term increasingly linked to forced migration issues. Although human security is often portrayed as a benign concept with strong moral stance, its vastness and loose definition limit its adequacy as a useful tool of analysis. The concept is also prone to misuse because it loosely adapts to various ideological interests.

Both serve to protect the individuals, but each secures a different entity.
