More than 150 refugees from Afghanistan have been locked up in a detention center in Balikpapan on the Indonesian island of Borneo. Indonesia has not signed the UN Refugee Convention and considers them illegal immigrants. Despite a 2016 presidential decree to provide them temporary housing, more than a 1,000 are still behind bars across Indonesia. Nearly 14,000 refugees from Afghanistan, Somalia, Iraq and other countries have been stuck in Indonesia for up to a decade, including refugees from Rohingya that came to the country in 2015. In the early morning last Friday Indonesian fishermen rescued at least five Rohingya off the island of Sumatra.
