When we were here in February of last year, there were still some 2,000 stateless Vietnamese boat people living in the Philippines, people who had fallen through the cracks, who were living in limbo and without hope.
Lors de notre comparution devant le comité en février 2005, il restait quelque 2 000 réfugiés de la mer vietnamiens aux Philippines, des gens sans patrie, laissés pour compte, au statut incertain et sans espoir aucun.
