Find solution to Rohingya crisis

Crimes against humanity and genocide against the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar by Rakhine Buddhist extremists, Burmese security and government forces are falling on a deaf ear of the world community. In the past one year, more than 400,000 were displaced and their villages burned. The majority fled to neighbouring Bangladesh in dire need of food, shelter and medical care. Thousands were trapped in forests and mountains as the military continues its attacks from the ground and the air. The United Nations is impotent even to investigate these atrocities and to provide the Rohingyas with food and water.

The Rohingya refugee crisis is an issue involving Myanmar and other countries in the region and needs to be settled on an amicable basis. Other countries can additionally extend financial and moral support. Offering the Rohingya refuge in neighbouring countries now seem to be a sensitive issue. As of now, all South Asian countries have serious concerns about migration and related issues.

We should understand that Rohingyas have been moving out of their countries due to economic, political and social reasons and in the name of humanity all countries should take immediate stepsto address the issues faced by Rohingyas. When the world economy collapsed ten years ago, there was a summit to address the issue. But when people are being killed or dying out of hunger, no summits are organised to find answers. This is nothing but the hypocrisy of global leaders.
