Refugees from Bhutan: Nationality, Statelessness & Right to Return
Tang Lay Lee

The author presently practices as a lawyer in Singapore, and has worked extensively on human rights and international law issues, particularly nationality and statelessness. Research for this article on Bhutanese refugee was undertaken during a period as Legal Research Advocate with the Jesuit Refugee Services - Asia Pacific. The support of JRS-Asia Pacific, which was then involved in an education programme in the Bhutanese refugee camps and saw the project as a contribution to efforts to help resolve the situation, is gratefully acknowledged. The views expressed are those of the authors, however, and are not necessarily shared by JRS.
