Coping with disaster: refugees and displaced persons in South-East Asia
UN 141,388 Kuantan, Malaysia, August 1979
The humanitarian commitment of the international community was emphatically reaffirmed at a 2-day meeting convened in Geneva in July by UN Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim. The 65 nations attending the meeting made substantial commitments of funds and offers of permanent asylum to help solve the immediate and longterm needs of the hundreds of thousands of Indochinese refugees and displaced persons in South-East Asia. The international relief effort is being coordinated by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees.
