London Aug 12 (bdnews24.com)—Protesters shouted slogans outside her hotel in London as Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was about to meet her British counterpart David Cameron at 10 Downing Street on Sunday.

Some 200 gathered outside the hotel in central London and denounced the Bangladesh Prime Minister for not letting Rohingya Muslims, allegedly fleeing persecution in neighbouring Myanmar, enter her country.

Hasina was scheduled to meet Cameron, host of the global hunger summit at his official home, at 4pm (9pm BdST).

Senior politicians from Kenya, India and Brazil will be present at the summit. A group of athletes were expected to attend the hour-long summit including British double gold medalist Somali-born Mohammed Farah.

During the summit, the UK will pledge to spend £120 million on researching crops that can survive in droughts and a hunger alert system for Kenya.

Hasina is expected to leave Downing Street at about 5:00pm and will leave Foreign Minister Dipu Moni to make a presentation.

The Prime Minister is meeting the UK International Development Secretary, Andrew Mitchell, at 8.00pm Sunday night at her hotel.

Well it is neither pathological hatred of Muslims(which we have have more than you), nor Bangladeshis but just of illegal Bangladeshis, who do not respect our borders and those who defend their crimes.

Yes we did help you in the past, but we do not owe you or your citizens anything!!

Talk to Myanmar on Rohingya issue: PM

Talk to Myanmar on Rohingya issue: PM

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina UNB, London

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday said Britain and the countries concerned about Rohingya refugees should talk to the Myanmar government regarding the refugee issue instead of pressurising Bangladesh.

The prime minister said this when British Secretary of State for International Development Affairs Andrew Mitchell met her at her hotel suite in London in the evening.

After the meeting, PM’s Press Secretary Abul Kalam Azad briefed reporters about the outcome of the meeting.

Abul Kalam said the premier informed the British minister that Bangladesh, despite being an overpopulated country, is already hosting over 28,000 Myanmar refugees at two camps in Cox’s Bazar.

On the influx of Myanmar refugees to Bangladesh, the prime minister said her government is providing them with food, medicine and even some financial assistance before repatriating them to their own country.

About climate change, Hasina appreciated British support for Bangladesh’s efforts to combat its adverse impacts and sought cooperation from the UK for the Climate Vulnerable Forum and its activities.

Hasina also thanked the British government for its assistance for education, health, sanitation, natural disaster prevention and attainment of MDGs in Bangladesh.

Mitchell appreciated various successes of the present government, including those in agriculture, education, health and energy sectors, under the able leadership of Sheikh Hasina.

He thanked the prime minister to attend the World Hunger Event in London although August is the month of mourning in Bangladesh.

Hasina said she attended the programme responding to the invitation of British Prime Minister David Cameroon, and above all the topics of the event attracted her.

Ambassador at-Large M Ziauddin and Bangladesh High Commissioner to London Dr Sayeedur Rahman Khan were present.

NO one gives a jack about pea brained attention seeking Indian trolls until they start spouting rubbish like desperate beggars making a fool out of themselves in every thread.

PDF mods allow this false propaganda of illegal Bangladeshi migrants to go on by Indian trolls, but shut down and censor threads that they think goes against their or their "master's" interest. And Bangladeshi's do not even realize that by their presence here they are validating these attacks on Bangladesh national interest. If I have to judge about Pakistan and its people from PDF, I would say they have not improved much, but that is true for all of us South Asians, so no surprise there.

If Bangladeshi people want to have self-respect, they should create their own website and discuss mutual issues there. --military is not a replacement. This website in my opinion is not a neutral place to promote Bangladesh national interest. The sooner Bangladeshi's realize and act, the better it will be for few Bangladeshi's who are wasting their time here on a meaningless exercise and are being used by others to hurt Bangladesh image.
