In the last 48 hours, Zone C1A in Mae La Refugee Camp on the Thai-Burma border, and which is home to some 40–50,000 refugees, mostly Karen, has been hit with a big flood. As if life in the camp isn’t hard enough as it is …
Thankfully, there has been no loss of life. The damage at this stage has been mostly to school furniture and books.
If you’re the praying kind, then folk in the camp would greatly value your prayers at this time.
