Absolute waste of time and bandwidth. Use the 'ignore' function. Life is short.

More than 1,000 Rohingya feared killed in Myanmar crackdown, say UN officials
More than 1,000 Rohingya Muslims might have been killed in a Myanmar army crackdown, according to two senior United Nations officials dealing with refugees fleeing the violence, suggesting the death toll is far greater than previously reported.
The officials, from two separate UN agencies working in Bangladesh, where nearly 70,000 Rohingya have fled in recent months, said they were concerned the outside world had not fully grasped the severity of the crisis unfolding in Myanmar’s Rakhine state.
“The talk until now has been of hundreds of deaths. This is probably an underestimation – we could be looking at thousands,” said one of the officials, speaking on condition of anonymity. Both officials, in separate interviews, cited the weight of testimony gathered by their agencies from refugees over the past four months in concluding the death toll was likely to have exceeded 1,000.

Aid ship to help Rohingyas arrives in Myanmar, greeted by protest

A small group of protesters greeted a ship from Malaysia when it docked in Myanmar on Thursday carrying aid bound for the troubled state of Rakhine, where many members of the stateless Rohingya Muslim minority live.
The ship docked on the outskirts of the commercial hub, Yangon, where it was due to unload 500 tonnes of food and emergency supplies, with the rest of its 2,200 ton cargo bound for southeast Bangladesh.
Almost 69,000 Rohingyas have fled from Myanmar to Bangladesh in the past four months from a security force crackdown.
The aid shipment from mostly Muslim Malaysia has stirred opposition in Buddhist-majority Myanmar, where many see the Rohingya as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.
Malaysia has been an outspoken critic of Myanmar over the crisis in Rakhine state, which erupted after nine policemen were killed in attacks on border posts on Oct. 9 claimed by Rohingya militants.
U.N. officials working with refugees in Bangladesh have told Reuters the death toll in the Myanmar security sweep could be more than 1,000.
Refugees have given journalists, human rights groups and U.N. investigators detailed accounts of troops firing on civilians, burning villages, beatings, detention and rape.
The Myanmar government, led by Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, has rejected the reports of abuse, saying many were fabricated. It insists the strife is an internal matter.
Underlining the controversy surrounding the aid for the Rohingya, several dozen Buddhist monks and nationalists demonstrated outside the port terminal on Thursday.
They held signs rejecting the use of the name Rohingya - the name most Muslims in northern Rakhine state use to describe themselves, which Myanmar rejects."We don't mind that they want to support people who are suffering," Buddhist monk U Thuseiktha told Reuters.
"But we don't want political exploitation of this issue by calling them Rohingya. The name Rohingya doesn't exist."
'CONFIDENCE'
Myanmar officials have also accused Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak of tapping into the Rohingya cause "to promote a certain political agenda".
The Muslim groups and aid organizations behind the aid shipment had hoped to deliver the supplies directly to Rohingyas in Rakhine State, but were instead forced to hand the aid over to the Myanmar government in Yangon.
Myanmar has also insisted that it be distributed equally between Buddhists and Muslims in Rakhine State.
Abd. Aziz Sheikh Fadzir, a lawmaker from Najib's ruling party who attended the docking, said the organizations behind the shipment had been delivering aid to other crises around Asia and the Pacific.
Any suggestion of political expediency was "speculation", he said.
Najib has called Myanmar's military operation "genocide" and saw off the shipment when it left Malaysia last Friday.
Reezal Merican Naina Merican, Malaysia's deputy minister of foreign affairs, who was also at the port, praised Myanmar for agreeing to accept the delivery, saying it built confidence between the international community and Myanmar.
Win Myat Aye, Myanmar's minister for social welfare, relief and resettlement, said Rakhine was "the second-poorest state in Myanmar, is a natural disaster-prone area by geographical location, and it is compounded by communal conflicts unfortunately".Myanmar has been criticized for hampering the work of agencies including the U.N. World Food Program trying to feed people in area where malnutrition rates were high before the conflict .The government had been delivering aid to affected people in northern Rakhine "without discrimination", Win Myat Aye said, adding Myanmar would "arrange the distribution of this aid to the communities in the affected areas at the soonest possible time".

These people don't even realize that their 'stand' (i.e. communalism and racism) is nothing to be proud about.
Such is backwardness, illiteracy and dumbfounded stupidity. Literacy means more than being able to sign your name and being able to read a newspaper.
May Buddha enlighten these people. In fact I think they've lost the right to call themselves Buddhists.
I wonder what the honorable Dalai Lama would say about these people....

The media in BD is totally controlled. So they have to downplay Rohingya issue and Rampla conspiracy.

PM to raise Rohingya issue during German tour
Foreign minister briefs media

Bangladesh will take up the Rohingya issue with Germany during the prime minister's visit to Munich, aiming to mount pressure on Myanmar to repatriate its nationals from Bangladesh.
"We've already talked to the European Commission on the Rohingya issue. And of course, the issue will be discussed at a meeting with Dr Angela Merkel," Foreign Minister AH Mahmood Ali told a press conference at the Foreign Ministry on Wednesday.
A Bangladesh delegation, led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, leaves here on Thursday for Munich, Germany, on a four-day official visit to attend Munich Security Conference (MSC) and the prime minister will hold bilateral talks with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Saturday next.
Mahmood Ali said the whole world is with Bangladesh over Rohingya issue while the United Nations has already criticised Myanmar in strong words for persecution of Rohingya people.
"We think we're on the right track over Rohingya issue because the world has realised how much sufferings the Rohingya people have been going through," he said.
About relocation of Rohingya people to Thengar Char in Hatiya, the Foreign Minister said Cox's Bazar is the country's main tourism spot and it cannot be allowed to be destroyed. "We have to consider the environment and also the problem of local people."
He said Rohingya people will not be there at Thengar Char forever as they will be repatriated to their homeland.
Mahmood Ali said Rohingya people are not being relocated right now. Infrastructures will be built and livelihood options will be created there before their relocation to Thengar Char, he added.
The government has started the initial process to gradually shift Rogingyas to Thengar Char in Hatiya, Noakhali.

Rohingyas get Malaysian aid
The distribution of Malaysian aid for Rohingyas has been started. A Rohingya man is seen carrying the relief goods in Ukhiya Dhaka Tribune
Cox’s Bazar district administration has started distributing Malaysian relief goods to Rohingya refugees in Ukhiya and Teknaf.
A total of 150 Rohingya families will get the relief goods on Wednesday.
The 1472 tonnes of relief goods will be distributed among 15,000 Rohingya families, 5,500 in Teknaf and 9,500 in Ukhiya upazila in Cox’s Bazar.
Saiful Islam Mojumder, head of relief distribution coordination committee and also additional deputy commissioner of Cox’s Bazar, told the Dhaka Tribune that the relief goods had been kept at the food storages.

“We will make a list and then distribute the goods among Rohingyas in four spots,” he added.
He said the relief goods include rice, lentils, coffee, sugar, cooking oil, blankets and first aids.
Two coordination committees have been formed to oversee the distribution of relief goods, Saiful said.
Malaysian aid ship Nautical Aliya handed over the relief goods for the Rohingya refugees at a ceremony at Chittagong port on Tuesday.
Nearly 70,000 Rohingyas have fled from Buddhist-majority Myanmar’s Rakhine State to Bangladesh to escape a crackdown launched after nine policemen were killed in attacks on border posts on October 9 last year that Myanmar blamed on Rohingya militants.

Till there is a strong patriotic leader at Dhaka like Sheikh or Zia, the Burmans will keep massacring the Rohingyas to physically eliminate the race. The Rohingya Mujahids are impatient to launch themselves. But without a logistical corridor in BD territory, it is just impossible.
