Nearly 200 Rohingya refugees land in Indonesia in latest boat arrival
MORE THAN 100 weak and hungry Rohingya Muslim refugees were among the latest group to reach ashore in Indonesia on Sunday after a long and dangerous journey aboard a wooden boat.
The group of 184 people, including a pregnant woman and children, landed at the Kuala Gigieng beach in Indonesia’s northernmost province of Aceh, which has already received more than 500 Rohingya last year.
The refugees say they’re seeking a better life than in overcrowded camps in Bangladesh, where they fled military persecution across the border in Myanmar.
The UN refugee agency said it will determine their status in coordination with Indonesia’s government.
