Young Sri Lankan asylum-seekers look out from the Australian Customs and Immigration Fishiries Patrol vessel anchored off Indonesia's Riau Island of Tanjung Pinang. An Indonesian provincial governor refused Tuesday to allow an Australian customs vessel to unload 78 Sri Lankan asylum-seekers, saying Indonesia is not a 'dumping ground' for refugees.
