Refugees under the mandate of the UNHCR by country or territory of origin, 1988–2025. Bars, not a line: a line drawn across a year the source does not report would invent an observation a reader could not tell from a measured one.

The World Bank reports 34 of the 38 years between 1988 and 2025 for Singapore. The missing 4 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
