How about a whip round for the DB guys? 5k each from all AOA/DPA members, should pay off their outstanding loans, and allow them to at least remove their junk to Australia etc. They may then start a new life with a deposit to buy an apartment. Or at worse, be able to afford a rental.
Otherwise, they may sink rather than swim when the lights go out.
5k each would work if there were 120,000 members in the AOA/DPA. I'm thinking sadly you haven't got a clue what the shortfall is in outstanding loans.
