UNHCR: searches for Myanmar

Description: 

From the UNHCR Home page, Type "Myanmar" in the Search box and click. 256 hits (December 2001). Sort by date or relevance. You can limit the search to the specific areas in the left frame - News, Refugee protection, Partners, Publications, Executive Committee, Research/Evaluation, Administration. Go to the area xxxxx you want to search, type "Myanmar" in the search box, click on "Restrict to xxxxx" then click on Go. In addition, more Burma documents (most not accessed by the general search), can be found by going into Research/Evaluation, clicking on "Country of origin and legal information". Select "Myanmar" from the drop-down Country Index list. This takes you to the nearest thing the site has to a Burma/Myanmar page. There are 130 reports from various sources (US and Canadian Govts, human rights organisations, UN Special Rapporteur on Myanmar, UN Secretary-General, UNHCR docs etc.) back to 1990. Under Legal Information, this page also has the 1974 Constitution, the 1982 Citizenship Law and other citizenship-related legislation. There are also maps and news (25 stories, very little before 2001).
