Essay: Refugee Life
Refugee means a group of homeless people. Refugees are many types. Internal refugees, international refugees, local refugees etc, are some of the types of refugees. There are also other types which we cal political refugees, religious refugees and so on. But let us discuss what exactly the Refugee life is.
The word 'Refugee' seems miserable, the life of refugees is also miserable. It is not good to be a refugee and sustain our life in others assist. It is better to die for the nation rather to be a refugee.
If I have to speak, refugees have to beg from others. Refugees do not have any freedom. They have to remain within the boarder; they have to take the limited food items provided by the NGOs JNGOs, local organizations and others. They are not allowed to go outside the boundary with out the prior permission of the administrators.
If we see in the field of education, refugee students are not getting good opportunity to study. They have not even a single coin to go higher studies. They always have to depend on others so that the education is not qualitative. Even the qualified refugees will not get chance to earn a living.
Spending the life under the coated plastic roof is not comfortable. We are fed up of spending our days in such a condition. We live to go back to our own home land Bhutan. I feel very sad and unlucky to be a refugee. It is my misfortune to be so. Please help me on my way to success, and to get my own land in near future.
