HRP: Country Reports on Human Rights Practices
IRF: Annual Reports to Congress on International Religious Freedom
FREEDOM OF RELIGION
IRF 2000
There are no formal constitutional provisions for freedom of religion;
however, the Government respects freedom of religion in practice.
BAHÁ'Í COMMUNITY
IRF 1999-2000
Followers of Islam and the Baha'i Faith generally are located in urban
areas.
The Baha'is are the most active non-Christian missionaries.
SOCIETAL ATTITUDES
IRF 1999
The Baha'is challenge some influential Christian pastors' claim to exclusive
and free access to the radio based on the royal family's Christian background.
Although the issue has not been resolved due to the Government's indecision,
it appears unlikely to develop into a serious conflict. Occasionally, letters
to the editor appear in local newspapers arguing points of contention among
the Christian, Islamic, or Baha'i faiths.
