Are Rohingya Bengalis in Burma originally from Bangladesh?

[IamBengali]

Myanmar / Burma wants to deport millions of Rohingya Bengalis to Bangladesh. They say Bengalis from Chittagong (Their language is Chittagong dialect of Bangla) migrated to Burma and settled there. They say Bangladesh should take these population. Buddhist people of Myanmar say Bengali Muslims cause all problems in their state. They call Rohingyas 'Bangali terrorists' from Bangladesh. So peaceful Buddhists are ! They fight all the time with Bengali Muslims in Burma and call them peaceful !

There are 3 lakhs Rohingya refuges in Bangladesh already. Myanmar wants all the Rohingya Bengalis to go to Bangladesh but BD Govt. refuges to take foreign nationals.

In fact it is the other way round. Historically our population living east of the old Brahmaputra, ie, Sylhet to Chittagong are the seeds of Arakan Muslims.

Can someone please shut this moron from posting stupid threads?
Bloody fool even doesn't know that rohingyas are not bangals.they are the descendent s of araakans.
Chittagong does share quite a lot of words with them.but the language is totally different. There are people of small community in potuakhali/kuakata,they are araakan rohingyas.came here in the 50s .they don't mix with or inter marriage with local Bangladeshi s.they left in middle of ,what they call war of MOG.
Same as some groups in HATIA.

This guy is paid by India or a Hindu that is loyal to his religious brethren. No way is he a Muslim Bangladeshi.

Rohingyas are indigenous people of Arakan belt. It is sad to see UN sitting literally idle watching poor Rohingyas getting killed...it is a silent genocide.

BTW i read one interesting comment on "Youtube" of a Bangladeshi where he posted that technically Assam, North East & Arakan belongs to Bangladesh i.e Bangladesh sharing borders with Bhutan, China instead of just Burma & India.

If Pakistan did not break up in 1971, Assam and other North East states might have become independent, as both Pakistan's ISI and Chinese intelligence were working with Naga and Mizo insurgency. Saving NE states was one of the main motivations of India to help the breakup of Pakistan.

Currently, only China has the power to help North East states (8 sister states including Assam) become independent, which will then allow China to bring South Tibet back into its territory.

If the above becomes a reality then it will be possible to build an economic zone between Nepal, Bhutan, North East states and Bangladesh, that will facilitate free flow of goods and services between these countries with Chittagong or Sonadia as the main sea port.

Moron, I haven't asked you to post in my thread.
If you had any knowledge about Rohingya then could have shared without personal attack. Their language is not 'totally' different. They speak chittagong dialect of Bangla but there is a dialect spoken within Rohingya in a small community which sounds slightly different.

Rohingya people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The origin of this group of people is disputed with some saying they are indigenous to the state of Rakhine (also known as Arakan, or Rohang in the Rohingya language) in Burma and others contending that they are Muslim migrants who originated in Bengal, latterly Bangladesh, and migrated to Burma during the period of British rule.

 

[Chronos]

Does it really matter where they are from? If you look at history, and the map the history of ethnic migration and genetic migration, there are hardly any ethnic groups, major ones at least that have been stationary.

The boundaries of nation states are just that, Human ideas imposed on geography that serves as a representation of that nation.

The idea of what makes a Burmese counts for more.

What is obvious is, that whatever the nationality, or religion you have, gender, sexual orientation you have a basic right to life.

Someone can't just murder you because of Rohingya. Ultra-nationalism eventually leads you to dark places. It defines a particular idea, a particular group as part of the tribe as a nation and everyonelse is excluded.

So it doesn't matter if Rohingyas are from Bangladesh, they don't deserve to have their rights taken away. They have their rghrs, at the same time they have their duties as well.

The essay below says about the introduction of Muslim Rohingyas in the distant past. They are same stock as ours, but, they are not from the present day BD after 1947. However, they remain our blood brothers. They have similar ;looks as ours. I have seen a few of them in Japan.

The Kingdom of Mrauk-U was a kingdom based in the Arakanese city of Mrauk-U which ruled Arakan and parts of Bengal from 1429 to 1785.[1]

History
King Narameikhla (1404-1434), or Min Saw Mon, ruler of the Kingdom of Mrauk U in the early 15th century, after 24 years of exile in Bengal, regained control of the Arakanese throne in 1430 with military assistance from the Sultanate of Bengal. The Bengalis who came with him formed their own settlements in the region.[2] Narameikhla ceded some territory to the Sultan of Bengal and recognized his sovoreignity over the areas. In recognition of his kingdom's vassal status, the kings of Arakan received despite being Buddhists, and legalized the use of Islamic coins from Bengal within the kingdom. Narameikhla minted his own coins with Burmese characters on one side and Persian characters on the other. Arakan remained subordinate to Bengal up until 1531.[2]

Even after gaining independence from the Sultans of Bengal, the Arakanese kings continued the custom of maintaining titles.[3] The kings compared themselves to Sultans and fashioned themselves after Mughal rulers, despite remaining Buddhist. They also continued to employ Muslims in prestigious positions within the royal administration.[4] From 1531-1629, Portuguese pirates operated from havens along the coast of the kingdom and brought slaves in from Bengal to the kingdom. The Bengali Muslim population thus increased in the 17th century, as they were employed in a variety of workforces in Arakan. Some of them worked as Arabic, Bengali, and Persian scribes in the Arakanese courts, which, despite remaining mostly Buddhist, adopted Islamic fashions from the neighbouring Sultanate of Bengal.

Do you look into your soup before eating it to check whether India and Hindus haven't poisoned it ?

true. How does it matter where they are from. If they have settled before myanmar was born, they should become natural citizen of that country.

 

[American Pakistani]

Correct. UN is even sitting quiet when there are thousands of Hindus, Christians and Shias are being killed in Pakistan daily basis.

@WebMaster @Aeronaut @Oscar @Emmie @Manticore @nuclearpak @Jungibaaz @mods i reported the post but the troll off topic post is still there. Can i post the truth about India like this,

UN is sitting idle on the gang rapes of dallits, genocide of Khalistanis, genocide of Gujarati & other Indian Muslims, Indian state sponsored terrorism against Kashmiris in IOK/Maqbooza Kashmir.

As always Bangladeshis refuse to accept their own. They look like most of Bangladeshis but yet Bangladeshis consider them to be foreigners.
