Voluntary repatriation of refugees has been traditionally considered not only one of the three possible durable solutions, together with resettlement in a third country and local integration, but, actually, the best of those three solutions. Paradoxically, when looking at the Indochinese refugees, it appears that it has been the least applied solution, and also the most controversial. Since 1975, with some exceptions, resettlement in a third country has been the overall solution. A staggering 1,100,000 Indochinese refugees left for a third country in the past 14 years. This is certainly a major accomplishment and a true sign of international solidarity in the face of a human tragedy of such dimensions.
