Mir Ahmed A.B Siddiquee- Jeddah, Burma Times – 21 February 2014. Rohingyas from Arakan, Myanmaar used to escape out or fled to neighboring countries because they are/were not safe in their homes and land. They are still facing several kinds of atrocities not only in own land but also in other countries. In home land travel restrictions, forced labor and limited access of healthcare, restriction in education and marriage, religious freedom was banned, all the Mosques and religious schools were closed and still locked. No Burmese politicians were interested in their issues as to grant them basic human rights. President Thein Sein told in his interview, “We will send them away if any third country would accept them.” Similarly Suu Kyi, the opposition leader and 1994 noble peace prize winner also not interesting at all. When Rohingya refuge to other countries then they feel as “they are free from fear and saved”. Before Thai authorities were selling Rohingya slaves into the traffickers then to the companies, now again pushing back into the mouth of “CROCODILE”.
