Galang Refugee Camp accommodated Indochinese refugees from 1979 to 1996 on Galang Island in the Riau Islands of Indonesia.〔Useful details about the camp are at '(Galang Refugee Camp 1975-1996 Riau Archipelago Indonesia' ).〕 It is estimated that around 250,000 refugees passed through Galang during this period.〔Stephen Fitzpatrick, '( Galang's refugee hell' ), 'The Australian', 5 November 2009.〕 ==Organisation== Galang camp had two sections. * Camp One was for newly arrived refugees, who had not yet been approved for resettlement in the United States or another third country settlement. * After approval, refugees were relocated to Camp Two, where they received instructions in English as well as cultural information regarding life in the main resettlement countries. Camp Two also housed Cambodians who had been camped and approved in Thailand, which caused some tensions and unpleasantness with the Vietnamese majority. Policing was provided by the Indonesian police, while caseworkers and legal officers from participating countries and the United Nations came in on a less regular basis as needed. Relations between the internees and Indonesian police supervisors were not always easy. From time to time there were reports of considerable friction over social and administrative conditions in the camp.〔'(Terrorised in the camp of shame' ), ''South China Morning Post'', 6 June 1993.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Galang Refugee Camp」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
