Another round of good news by Arthur Chrenkoff. One interesting point is this:
After the initial rush, which saw millions of Afghan refugees coming back home from Iran and Pakistan, the trickle continues. More than 50,000 Afghan refugees have returned home from Pakistan since the resumption of a U.N.-assisted repatriation program in March; 400,000 are expected to do so by the end of the year. Meanwhile, "in a bid to entice Afghan refugees in Pakistan back home, Kabul has announced it is building homes in six or seven Afghan provinces for about 48 thousand families in 2005."
If things where not significantly better, would all of these people continue to come back?
