Refugees

Aug. 08, 1979 - Coping with Disaster: Refugees and Displaced Persons in South-East Asia: 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 long-term needs of the hundreds of thousands of Indochinese refugees and displaced persons in South-East Asia. The international relief effort is being co-ordinated by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees. Vietnamese refugees in their boats in the Government Dockyard area, Kowloon, Hongkong
