49 Illegal workers at refugee camps in Kalimantan die: At least
49 Illegal workers at refugee camps in Kalimantan die: At least 49 Indonesian refugees -- who were recently kicked out of Malaysia for a number of crimes -- including 19 from East Nusa Tenggara province, have died of respiratory diseases, diarrhea, dysentery, and stress in crammed camps in Nunukan, East Kalimantan. Social workers said Friday that some 500 refugees were still sick in the reportedly squalid camps. "The situation in the refugee camps continues to deteriorate. The workers eat only twice a day and many of them are suffering from various diseases," social worker Viktor Ola was quoted by Antara as saying. There are currently around 25,000 worker refugees in Nunukan. --Antara
