Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra meets Rohingyas in Bangladesh

Allowed ?.. Mate you guys need to just slow up your hyperbole a bit, I'm happy that Bangladesh is developing but be humble about it not crass.. There's a long long way to go before you can be smug about it

Sri Lankans never sought refuge in Bangladesh mate if you're implying that they did.. There weren't tens and thousands of Lankans ?? Do not pull out shit out of your pants mate.. That's laughable

No offense but who would want to seek refuge in a country that's worse off than theirs even in a bloody civil conflict? Lankan industrialists saw business opportunities, Cheap and available labor, Than in Sri Lanka and most importantly nonexistent labor laws at that time.. So they shifted the RMG operations to Dhaka.. Simple as that.. Lankan management were the pillars of the Bangladeshi Garment industry when they started it in the 90's.. For goodness sake so many Lankan entrepreneurs went to places like Iraq and even Madagascar for business opportunities, Does that mean they sought refuge there ?

Having an opinion about the Rohingya issue contravening to yours doesn't necessarily mean it all encompass an individual's outlook on Bangladesh or it's people.. It's bit immature to think that, Maybe thats the issue? Some of you Bangladeshi's here on this forum seem to be going through growing pains, Since you'll are relatively new to all this think it's all a zero sum game

I keep reiterating, This is not the 20th century.. Information these days are readily available for people to make informed opinions on plethora of global affairs and as i predicted it was a matter of time despite all the initial propaganda from the Rohingya side that the alternative version of events will start to come out.. It always does, In every conflict around the world

Sri Lanka is a multi ethnic multi religious nation, As such there will be fissures among the people from time to time.. No denying that.. But there are no Buddhist terrorists or Muslim terrorists going around killing each other like in other parts of the world, There was a riot and there was property damage due to a unfortunate incident.. Let me ask you something ? Terrorist's kill ISIS does, And those who killed diplomats in Dhaka few months ago in a shooting spree did, Along with those who are massacring of secular bloggers in Bangladesh almost daily.. On the other hand how many deaths have occurred in Sri Lanka due to these riots for you to call Buddhists terrorists ?

So mate do not try to spit in to the air at others, Cos it might fall right on your face

I certainly don't need your views and characterization of how me or any other Bangladeshis arrive at our collective opinions and if it is mature or not. :lol:

If you don't like it, by all means don't respond to any Bangladesh related affairs. My hunches about you have been vindicated as one of the troublemakers at the Bangladesh section and you are now ignored.

Open your hearts, treat Rohingya children as your own: Priyanka

Learn from Bangladesh how to stand by distressed humanity

Star Online Report

Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra today called upon the world communities to come forward extending all-out assistance to the Rohingya women and children living in vulnerable camps in Cox's Bazar of Bangladesh.



"Open your hearts with compassion. Please be sympathetic and treat these children as your own," Priyanka, also the Unicef Goodwill Ambassador, made the call while addressing a press conference at a hotel in Dhaka this evening.

Wrapping up her four-day visit at different Rohingya refugee camps in Cox's Bazar, Priyanka said there is no space for the Rohingya people. "The world will have to take the responsibility of the Rohingya children," she urged the global community.

Learn from Bangladesh how to stand by distressed humanity
Unicef Goodwill Ambassador and Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra today said the world should learn from Bangladesh how to stand beside the distressed humanity.

She also appreciated Bangladesh, particularly Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, for taking the burden of giving shelter to more than one million displaced Rohingyas in Bangladesh, who fled persecution in Rakhine state of Myanmar, UNB reports.

The Bollywood star came up with the appreciation during a courtesy call on Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina at her Gono Bhaban residence in the afternoon.

PM's additional press secretary Nazrul Islam said Priyanka Chopra shared some experiences of visiting the Rohingya camps in Ukhiya for the last three days, particularly the sufferings of the children, with the Prime Minister.

"I found one kind of healing inside the Rohingya children," the Bollywood star said giving an example of her experience of visiting the Rohingya camps last year.

"Earlier, when I visited the Rohingya camps I asked the children to draw a picture, and they responded with drawing pictures of arms, gunfire and mortar shells from roving helicopters. But this time when I told them to do the same, they drew pictures of sun, animals and nature," she said.

"It's a testimony of their inside healing and it could be possible due to your motherly shelter and security," Priyanka told the Prime Minister.

PM's sister Sheikh Rehana and family members were present.

Mentioning about the hazardous situation for the children in the camps, Priyanka, on behalf of Unicef, called upon the international community to extend all-out support to the Rohingya people.

Priyanka told the Prime Minister that she was concerned about the possibility of a 'generation loss' of a particular ethnicity as a large number of children have no access to education as they are passing their days roaming around.

"The children might have gone astray and even become extremists if they're deprived of the opportunity of having education," she apprehended.

Sheikh Hasina said her government has given shelter to the Rohingyas solely on humanitarian ground as the people of Bangladesh had experienced the same situation in 1971.

She recalled her refugee life abroad after the killing of her parents in 1975 saying, "Those incidents taught us to stand beside humanity during their bad time."

Hasina said her government has been making efforts to give the Rohaingyas all the support, but it is not possible for the government alone to mitigate their sufferings.

Unicef and other international agencies should come forward with more support, she said.

Pointing out the government's initiative to relocate the Rohingyas to a safe zone at Bhasanchar, the Prime Minister said they will be able to live there in a better environment.

The cyclone-shelters like centers have been constructed there with various facilities, she said adding that they will have education and health support as well as job opportunities, the Prime Minister said.

About the healthcare facilities extended by the government to the Rohingyas, the Prime Minister said her government has taken steps for vaccination in the shelter camps and all the government and private hospitals and clinics have been asked to provide medical services to the Rohingyas as much as possible.

Mentioning about the signing of an agreement with Myanmar for the repatriation of the Rohingyas to their homeland, Hasina said unfortunately Myanmar authorities are not working according to the deal.

Priyanka arrived in Bangladesh on Monday on a four-day visit to draw world's attention to the children of displaced Rohingya nationals of Myanmar, who have taken shelter in camps in Cox's Bazar.

My friend, appreciate much what you have to say here....it is only useful for the rest reading mostly however. It is futile, and you probably now are in the thick of the process of where I was earlier with certain members here....that will cherrypick, distort and then project whatever suits their feelings at whatever untruthful level needed....managing to turn me against a country (well their projection of it I console somewhat) I held dear one time. It made me investigate all the things I took for granted and at their word earlier, and I wish I didn't now because the truth is quite ugly....I wish to not have known it.

Never have I seen people (and I have seen some pretty bad ones from everywhere) so desperate to believe what their govt will feed them and then take that to another level themselves...and continue that even against clear evidence to contrary (NASA city lights, boat migrants in the meditteranean, 3rd party stats outside of BD etc ...to name just a few recent ones I have employed). It all comes out of a complex that is best left to be and rot by the cruel rays of reality and time, only sadness and the worst forms of ego lies drives this stuff....rational discourse is the sad victim...its big grander brother (friendship) long having been hung and buried.

Aside from your girly emotional rubbish that you keep repeating to defend your vomiting of vile frustrations in this forum, if you really get that triggered from online posts that made you to invest so much time to 'investigate' those things, I say you need a life big time!

No idea why you tagged me in this post. I never said anything against SL or undermined SL in any of my post here, rather have always appreciated SL's progress and even defended SL in many threads where the Indians were dissing you guys.

All I pointed out was how Bangladesh and SL share common interests in several fields and a strangely exorbitant interest from you on the Rohingya issue which is quite different from other SL members in this forum.

Sorry i should have been more specific in the response to you..

This was the response i meant for you disregard the rest.. As for my interest in the subject yes.. The issue hits closer to home not just for me but all those of Lankan origin @Godman @Saradiel , There is'nt a exorbitant interest for it but it's in relation in context to the civil war that went on in the island specifically what was fought in the media at that time, Many parallels

Go through my responses on the subject, It's basically regarding the propaganda.. In the last century internal conflicts were won on propaganda on mainstream media by the sides that best used them (Kosovo/Bosnia, Iraq, Kuwait, Vietnam Etc..) But that monopoly has changed, As i keep reiterating in my posts there are plethora of sources for a global citizen to get thier information now, Alternative facts to what the mainstream media and other interest groups try to force feed you

I'm a firm believer that no side in innocent in a civil conflict, Someone lights the fire and get burnt by it, And usually it's they who cry foul the most

And let me restate this my outlook on the Rohingya issue does not define my opinion on Bangladesh or it's people outside of that subject matter.. G'day

A entire group of population in MM denied citizenship and basic rights are mere propaganda. People have far better things to do in this world than pulling leg of a 4th world $hithole like burma. Get a life.

And you think they're wasting time on your hissy fits ?? Wake up and smell the coffee bub, Your sole existence is due to India.. What will happen to Rohingya will depend on India, China and Myanmar, You're just road kill in this whole drama, You have no say in it.. They will stay where they are now whether you'll like it or not after all it's where they belong.. The sooner you Bangla stronk lot realize that the better for you

Mate i will give respect to those who show respect, I'm still open to having any discussion with civility if it's done with the same, If we agree on the subject matter or not

Not a kid to get easily coaxed by people in a online forum either
