Currently, there are over 1.1 million Rohingya displaced persons temporarily living in Bangladesh.

Thailand has been providing humanitarian assistance since 2017 through various international organizations such as IOM, WFP, ICRC, and UNHCR to help relieve this crisis.

The ambassador also met Shah Rezwan Hayat, Refugee Relief and Repatriation Commissioner, and discussed the way forward on camp management for the displaced persons.
