Religious freedom continues to decline across the world, with Asia remaining a region for particular concerns, says a report from papal charity, Aid to the Church in Need . The ACN’s latest religious freedom report found that 61 out of 196 countries surveyed completely or severely limit religious freedom.

It found the Chinese Communist Party’s ‘sinicisation’ of religion hampered the freedom of religion among almost all communities in the nation. The government “requiring all religions to adhere to the Chinese Communist Party’s ideology, doctrine, and teachings – resumed its intense crackdown on religious communities,” the report said.

“The data from India, Nepal, and other countries in this region suggests that ethnoreligious nationalism continues to be a dangerous pattern in Mainland Asia,” the report said. Buddhist-majority nations Myanmar, Sri Lanka, and Thailand were reported to have various levels of religious persecution in their territories. Myanmar’s Military Junta has engaged in religious persecution fuelled by an ethnoreligious nationalist ideology that resulted in the destruction of at least 132 churches and religious buildings since the start of the coup in February 2021.
