Aung San Suu Kyi under pressure as Muslim Rohingya Crisis Continues-

[M.R.9]

The foreign minister of Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation, flew to Myanmar for emergency talks on Sunday as the Rohingya crisis continues.

Minister Retno Marsudi arrived in Myanmar’s capital, Yangon, as protesters in her own capital, Jakarta, launched a Molotov cocktail at the Myanmar embassy.


Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday that violence against the Muslim Rohingyas amounted to genocide, while British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson warned Aung San Suu Kyi that the oppression of the minority was “besmirching” her country’s reputation.

Comment:

We hope these Muslim leaders and governments will not merely go through the motions of protest. The cold blooded genocide of the Rohingya Muslim men, women and children being perpetrated by the military and government of Myanmar with ‘moral justification’ provided by extremist terrorist Buddhist monks must be halted. Imagine if the Ummah of Indonesia and Turkey were truly one Ummah under one sincere leader of the Believers, how long would the crisis of Myanmar last? If all Muslims were united and spoke with one voice and acted as one body, one army, would the blood of Muslims be shed so wantonly in Myanmar?

“We (Turkey) already talked Myanmar State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi on Rohingya issue. She said Myanmar will do better in this regard . . . Suu Kyi assured us to ensure securities of all citizens of Rakhain state,” she said.

The Turkish first lady said Myanmar government could resolve the crisis in a short time if it wished so.

Emine Erdogan lauded Bangladesh for sheltering the Rohingyas.

Talking to newsmen the Turkish Foreign Minister, meanwhile, urged the international community to create pressure on Myanmar for resolution of Rohingya issue and simultaneously stand by Rohingyas.

The Turkish first lady reached Dhaka hours after Istanbul sent its foreign minister while the Rohingya issue earlier brought in Dhaka the Indonesian foreign minister with a proposal to extend Jakarta’s hands in sharing with Bangladesh the burden of Myanmar refugees.

“Their visit follows the latest bloodshed in Myanmar’s Rakhine State that resulted in the fresh influx of Rohingyas into Bangladesh,” the foreign ministry said in a statement earlier today.

Indonesia already spearheaded the effort by sending our FM Retno Marsudi to Myanmar to meet both Su Kyi and the Myanmar Military leader few days ago where Indonesia stated our deep concern and push 4+1 formula to end circle of violence in Rakhine state.

Not only that, Indonesia FM also visit Bangladesh and met PM Hasina to coordinate any possible actions to immediately help Rohingya refugee.

Your 4+1 formula has no substance to it. Very vague and Burmese did not take it seriously. Its as good as our prime minister Hasina's formula. She always play the same broken record, take back Rohingya. That's her formula and they send few more in the meantime.

It should be joint effort of Muslim countries not individual one, because joint effort will have more weight and ability to get the desired results.

It should be joint effort of Muslim countries not individual one, because joint effort will have more weight and ability to get the desired results.

Joint effort will be done in due time, it will be a long process. Meanwhile Indonesia, as a regional heavyweight that have excellent bilateral influence with Myanmar gov and the rest of Muslim countries can briskly move to convey the much needed response to Myanmar government and its Military regime directly and swiftly.

The only daddy burmese listen to is Chinese. Indonesia Turkey Bangladesh can do nothing to Burmese. People should pressurize Chinese to do more, what USA did about n. korea. Despite being the closest ally and tributary, China had to put sanction on n.korea with US pressure. We are not USA but if all the muslim country put cumulative pressure on China, it may work. But Muslim countries have very little leverage in today's world.

Indonesia don't place their bet on China or USA to fix the world. We think and act independently and lay down our own initiatives. Indonesia eagerly playing the problem solver role in the region and actively become part of the solution.

To teach Myanmar a lesson all big Muslim countries have to work together so no one in world take Muslims as bananas or easy pass and try to slaughter Muslim population

Monks stage anti-Rohingya march in Myanmar
Hundreds take to the streets in solidarity with President Thein Sein's plan to send the Rohingya to another country.

The protest is the latest indication of deep rooted sentiment against the Rohingya population in Myanmar [AFP]

Hundreds of Buddhist monks in Myanmar have staged a rally in support of President Thein Sein's proposal to send the members of the Rohingya minority group to another country.

Sunday's rally in Mandalay, the country's second largest city, is the latest indication of deep-seated sentiment against the Rohingya after violence with ethnic Rakhine Buddhists in June left at least 83 people dead and tens of thousands displaced.

The monks held a banner saying, "Save your motherland Myanmar by supporting the president", while others criticised United Nations human rights envoy Tomas Ojea Quintana, who has faced accusations that he is biased in favour of the Rohingya.

The leader of the march, a monk named Wirathu, told the AFP news agency that the protest was to "let the world know that Rohingya are not among Myanmar's ethnic groups at all".

Wirathu was jailed in 2003 for distributing anti-Muslim literature. He was given a 25-year sentence but released in January this year under an amnesty.

The monks say they will demonstrate and march for the next three days and expect many more people to join them.

Persecuted minority
The United Nations has referred to the Rohingya, widely reviled by the Buddhist majority in Myanmar, as among the most persecuted people on Earth.

The Rohingya have been denied citizenship even though many of their families have lived in Myanmar for generations.

Myanmar has denied a crackdown on Muslims and launched an inquiry into the violence, while Thein Sein has accused Buddhist monks, politicians and other ethnic Rakhine figures of kindling hatred towards the Rohingya in a report sent to parliament last month.

However, in comments to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres, published on his official website in July, he suggested it was "impossible to accept the illegally entered Rohingya, who are not our ethnicity" and mooted sending the group to a third country or UN administered camps.

The proposal was quickly opposed by the UN refugee agency.

Rights groups claim the government did little to stop the violence initially and then turned its security forces on the Rohingya with targeted killings, rapes, mass arrests and torture.

Myanmar considers the Rohingya to be illegal migrants from Bangladesh but Bangladesh also rejects them, rendering them stateless.

The UN estimates that 800,000 Rohingya live in Myanmar and the country's president has said the trouble in Rakhine state is an internal affair of the country and should not be internationalised.
