Bhutan's deprived refugees - 23 Mar 08

Rush hour in the border town of Phuentsholing in southern Bhutan and one of the main crossing points with India.

Every day thousands of people pass through here into the Himalayan kingdom.

Some enter for a better job with higher pay some hoping for a better future.

Most are Indian or Nepalese.

But do they really have a future as refugees in Bhutan?

In 1988, the government reported of 11,442 marriages between Bhutanese and non-Bhutanese during the preceding 20 years. There was neither a Marriage Act or Citizenship Laws forbidding a Bhutanese marrying a foreign wife then. The laws were enacted later with retroactive effect. Had there been such laws, probably no Bhutanese would have married a foreign spouse.

Home is Where the Heart Is; a new charity set up to help displaced people around the world. The project which we are asking for peoples help for is to make a documentary about life in one of the Bhutanese refugee camps in order to spread awareness and raise funds to set up an arts center there for the refugees to use their cultural skills to earn money via an online store without being exploited.
