Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Massive refugee migrations in Southeast Asia set off in 1975 by changes of government in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, are a problem of both humanitarian and political concern. The refugees pose potentially disruptive political problems for the asylum countries, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines, and Hong Kong. Only a few countries, the United States, France, Australia, and Canada, have accepted an appreciable number of refugees for resettlement. In an effort to obtain worldwide participation in alleviating the Indochina refugee crisis, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), has changed its funding program and has held international conferences aimed at obtaining more resettlement offers. It is imperative that appropriate asylum and additional temporary care facilities be provided and effectively managed. Current law does not clearly express U.S. intentions and commitments to refugee resettlement and has made planning and processing of refugees very difficult. Commitments need to be more formally embodied in law to express the will of Congress and possibly to motivate other nations to share refugee relief. A refugee admission and resettlement policy needs to be established.

Download or read book Terms of Refuge written by Court Robinson and published by Zed Books. This book was released on 1998 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For half a century (ever since the Japanese invasion of 1942), much of Southeast Asia has been racked by war. In the last 20 years alone, some three million people fled their homes in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. This book is their story. It is also the story of the international community's response. Spearheading this was the United Nations agency responsible, UNHCR. It pioneered innovations like the Orderly Departure Programme, anti-piracy and rescue-at-sea efforts, and later on, ambitious reintegration projects for returnees. Today the camps in Southeast Asia are closed. Half a million people have returned home. Over two million have started new lives in the United States, Canada, Australia and France. This compelling book is the history of this modern exodus. It also takes stock and poses important questions. How did the flight of refugees and international response evolve? How do we measure the achievements and the failures of that international effort? What has been the legacy in Asia itself? And what lessons can be drawn for use in other refugee situations around the world?

Book excerpt: This June issue deals with Indochinese refugees and the questions which were to be discussed at the International Conference on Indochinese refugees later that month. The agenda included the preservation of first asylum, the legitimacy of deterrence measures, the implementation of eligibility or screening measures, and resettlement as a durable solution. The way in which these questions were treated at the conference would have an impact on refugee issues in other parts of the world. A draft Comprehensive Action Plan, endorsed by 29 governments, was to be presented at the June conference. The plan represented a package in which first asylum was guaranteed in exchange for Vietnamese promises to deter clandestine departures and to accept those not found to be refugees; resettlement countries agreed to expand their quotas. The article provides an overview of the rapid changes in the Indochinese refugee situation and a description of church initiatives in the region. Refugee arrivals from Vietnam have not decreased in spite of the cut-off date of 14 March. In Thailand, Vietnamese refugees are placed in a new camp and have been denied resettlement opportunities. In Hong Kong Vietnamese refugees are kept in prison-like camps and are subject to very long screening procedures; Malaysia has threatened to close Pulau Bidong refugee camp in an effort to stem the flow. Thailand is the only country which provides temporary asylum for Kampucheans and Laotians, and is attempting to reduce the number of refugees. Khao I Dang camp will become a Voluntary Repatriation Training Centre and the 13,000 Kampucheans under UNHCR protection are now being interviewed for repatriation. The Thai government considers the presence of minority ethnic groups from Myanmar as temporary and does not wish to invite UNHCR to assist these refugees. The article concludes by summarising the activities of Hong Kong Christian Aid to Refugees.
