To go with “SEAsia migrants Indonesia”, Focus by Olivia Rondonuwu
In this picture taken on May 21, 2015, a Rohingya boy (C) from Myanmar is photographed during police identification procedures at a newly set up confinement area in Bayeun, Aceh province after more than 400 Rohingya migrants from Myanmar and Bangladesh were rescued by Indonesian fishermen off the waters of the province on May 20. Boat people who have come ashore in Southeast Asia after harrowing journeys are delighted that Indonesia and Malaysia will give them temporary shelter — although some were baffled by an offer of sanctuary in a tiny African nation they had never heard of. There was some confusion over an offer from the impoverished West African nation of Gambia to take in all Rohingya migrants as part of its “sacred duty” to alleviate the suffering of fellow Muslims.
