These are just a couple of the rumours the Biswa family heard in their Bhutanese refugee camp in Nepal. But after 20 years in captivity there, they decided to head to Winnipeg -- which they believed couldn't be much worse.
"The focus was on the children," Gopal Biswa said recently, through an interpreter. "Life would get better."

Remaining Bhutanese refugees have right to go back homeland'

 A senior official of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has stressed that Nepal and Bhutan should immediately open talks for the dignified repatriation of Bhutanese refugees to their home country.
Speaking in a news conference held here this afternoon at the end of his four-day official visit to Nepal, Deputy High Commissioner of the UN Refugee Agency T. Alexander Aleinikoff said that since a majority of the Bhutanese refugees have been repatriated to third countries, Nepal and Bhutan should hold talks for repatriating the remaining to Bhutan.
The UNHCR official said that 38,000 of the 48,000 Bhutanese refugees currently living in the two refugee camps in Jhapa have opted for third country repatriation and that the rights of those wanting to return to their home country should be respected.
He also said that the sides concerned should be sensitive regarding resolving the problem at the earliest.
Sixty-five thousand Bhutanese refugees have been resettled in the third countries including in the U.S. as a step taken by the international community to settle the Bhutanese refugee problem which has remained a humanitarian problem since long.
