BB.BHUTANI@III Bhutanese Refugee,Sanischare Camp
My country is Situated between the emerging superpowers of India and China, the isolated Buddhist kingdom of Bhutan, hailed by some as 'the last Shangri-La', has generated one of the highest numbers of refugees in the world in proportion to its population. Since 1991 over one sixth of Bhutan's people have sought asylum in Nepal, India and other countries around the world. The vast majority of the refugees are Lhotshampas, one of Bhutan's three main ethnic groups, who were forced to leave Bhutan in the early 1990s. There is ample evidence, as documented by Amnesty International and other human rights organisations, that the expulsion of large numbers of Lhotshampas was planned and executed with meticulous attention to detail. Over 105000 Bhutanese have spent more than 19 years living in refugee camps established in Nepal by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees. Thousands more are living outside the camps in Nepal and India, and some in North America, Europe and Australia. Since 2008 a resettlement process has seen many thousands of Bhutanese refugees from the camps in Nepal being re-settled primarily in the USA but also in Canada, Australia, Denmark, New Zealand, the Netherlands and Norway. Off course we are in different country now but we are BHUTANESE our hope and determination to return to Bhutan is still very much Alive.So i make this slideshow in order to remember passed days and to celebrate WORLD REFUGEE DAY 2011 Thank you very much I MISS YOU ALL ...
