Galang (Indonesian: Pulau Galang) is an island of 80 km2 located 25 mi (40 km) southeast of Batam,[1] belonging to a group of three islands called Barelang (an abbreviation of Batam-Rempang-Galang).

The island is connected by the Barelang Bridge to Rempang and Batam.

Many Vietnamese boat people and asylum seekers were temporarily accommodated in the Galang camp during the determination of their refugee status and their subsequent resettlement in the United States, Australia, and some European countries.

Many Vietnamese from their new resettled countries have come back to visit Galang.

Today, Galang Island (and the former refugee area known as Sinam Camp) is managed by Batam Industrial Development Authority (BIDA).
