Infographic of Refugees in Indonesia

The number of refugees spread throughout the archipelago of Indonesia currently exceeds 700,000. The vast majority of them are living in appalling conditions. The refugee camps have either low or no food supplies whatsoever. Unfortunately, permanent solutions to the refugee problem, such as returning to their homeland, or resettlement in new locations, have so far been unsuccessful. Only a small percentage of refugees have succeeded in obtaining permanent places.
