At year’s end, the total number of refugees originating from South Sudan was estimated at 778,700, compared to 616,200 at the end of 2014. This increase was a direct result of renewed conflict in South Sudan, which caused that country to become the fourth-largest country of origin.

The refugee population from Myanmar was estimated at 451,800 by the end of 2015. That compared to 479,000 at the end of 2014, with this decline largely due to resettlement from Malaysia during 2015.
