HIGHLIGHTS
• Two-thirds of children in South Asia unregistered at birth
• Unregistered are open to exploitation
• Harnessing technology to fight child marriages in Bangladesh
BANGKOK, 1 February 2013 (IRIN) – Stronger civil registration systems are needed in Asia, home to 60 percent of the world’s population, to ensure the legal and human rights of all, and facilitate health planning, experts say.
“Civil registration is the most basic requirement for individuals to establish legal identity and to formalize family relationships, and is thus a basic responsibility of the state,” Haishan Fu, director of the statistics division at the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) in Bangkok, told IRIN. “Without a legal identity, individuals may be deprived of the right of access to key public services such as health, education, social welfare and recourse to justice.”No more Rohingya boatpeople, says Thailand

Two camps of thought on helping Rohingya in Bangladesh
COX’S BAZAR, Bangladesh, January 28 (UNHCR) – In many countries, when you reach the age of 21 you become an adult and must start to fend for yourself. But in the refugee camps of south-eastern Bangladesh, 21 years after the Rohingya first started arriving as refugees, they are more dependent on aid than ever.
Some 30,000 registered refugees in Kutupalong and Nayapara, two government-run camps near Cox’s Bazar, are relying on regular distributions of food rations and relief items such as shelter and clothing. Basic water, sanitation and health services are provided by the government, UNHCR and its partners.Reports
