Labels:text | font | screenshot | white OCR: About 200,000 Surinamese, one-third of the ethnically diverse population, has emigrated since 1975. Of those still in Suriname, 90% live near the coast. The rest live in very scattered rainforest communities. About 7,000 are native Amerindians. The remainder are "bosnegers" - the descendants of runaway African slaves. They fought the Creole-dominated government in the 1980s. Many Indians and Javanese work in farming.
