ROHINGYA GENOCIDE - New Delhi backs perpetrators

@Philia

Where u got your stats from?
Islamabad developed much later some of the govt. infrastructure in 1960s and most of the city in mid 1970s.


This was Islamabad in 1967

And this is Dacca in 1960s

It looks pretty well developed & clean compared to now. It had huge enterprising private sector and served as mecca for Pakistan's major film industry hub.

This does not look like huge economic disparity or villages of Rakhine with no pavements or infrastructure.

And the economic disparity that exists between the population within East Pakistan is telling how millions are being pushed outside and in garment factories to do menial jobs whereas consultants making millions serving as middlemen for North American corporate brands

Grateful this reactionary Banglas [blame others than themselves] people and overpopulated burden is off our economy. They would never have stopped complaining anyways, they deserve Awami League completely.

LOL economic disparity. Bigger or smaller thankfully separate from us. Whenever I hear the word genocide by u namak haraam I really cringe on why planning commission even gave that much to East Pakistan which could've been utilised in surviving Pakistan? Rofl may you have a huge economy under AL.

are you continue going to derail the thread??? if so I can go ahead and deface Pakistani threads as well...are you that much of an idiot hot head?

Dancing with Suu Kyi
E.D. Mathew, September 24, 2017

New Delhi’s relationship with the de facto leader of Myanmar, Aung San Suu Kyi, seems to have snowballed into a diplomatic debacle following her recent address to the Myanmar Parliament. Ms. Suu Kyi pointedly avoided the term Rohingya in her speech, calling the ethnic minority “Bengali Muslims” instead. Timed to avoid censure at the ongoing United Nations General Assembly session, which she chose not to attend, Ms. Suu Kyi’s speech was clearly aimed at an international audience.

Ms. Suu Kyi said her government does not fear “international scrutiny” of its handling of the Rohingya crisis and yet Myanmar has been denying for several months visas to a three-member fact-finding mission named by the UN Human Rights Council to investigate the violence. Journalists are allowed into Rakhine state only on government-controlled trips.

Not only has Ms. Suu Kyi done nothing to stem the recent spate of violence but she has also failed to condemn the atrocities in Rakhine state, which the UN Human Rights Commissioner recently termed as a “textbook example of ethnic cleansing”. According to the UN Refugee Agency, as of September 18, over 412,000 Rohingya refugees have fled to Bangladesh since August 25.

In 2012, Ms. Suu Kyi had named Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru as the two Indian leaders she felt “closest” to. Less than five years later, she has spectacularly failed to emulate her heroes who publicly supported Muslims during the communal violence that followed India’s Partition.

So why is Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government courting Ms. Suu Kyi? Could the rising Buddhist nationalist radicalism in Myanmar and the concomitant anti-Muslim sentiment have found resonance with it? It’s only telling that Mr. Modi is also keeping away from the ongoing UN General Assembly session. During his visit to Myanmar early this month, he also refrained from using the term ‘Rohingya’, and decried the loss of lives of security forces and innocent people “due to the extremist violence in Rakhine state.”

A prominent theory in favour of the Modi government’s slant towards Ms. Suu Kyi is that alienating Myanmar would risk the country embracing China, which maintains that the Rohingya crisis is an “internal affair” for Myanmar to deal with. This argument may sound pragmatic, but the reality is that China’s involvement in Myanmar is far deeper than India can possibly match any time soon. Less than two weeks ago, China opened its first liaison office in Naypyidaw, the generally empty capital city shunned by most other diplomatic missions, as a prelude to moving its embassy there from Yangon. From weapons to foodgrains and textiles, the list of Myanmar’s imports from China is long.

China’s investments in Myanmar include a cross-border oil and gas pipeline, an alternative route for energy imports from West Asia that avoids the busy Malacca Strait. The construction of a port at the Kyaukphyu Special Economic Zone in Rakhine will enhance Beijing’s naval presence in Myanmar.

No wonder India seems to consider countering the growing Chinese influence in Myanmar more important — and more appealing to the nationalist domestic audience — than upholding long-cherished democratic values.

thought Bangladesh and India were inseparable allies? India being the older brother and thired eye of Bangladesh? Or was this friendship just for 1971?

When comes to 71, they are our best buddy but any other time, they enjoy killing us
anyways possible.

I think Bd people are dumbest in the world. We know about Indian motives yet we still seek their friendship.

China is teaching us "Little Lesson" due to the defence pact with India. BAL leaders are getting it now!

Indian seven sisters sleep well due to a stable Bangladesh. New Delhi soon will realize they didnt play well with Rohingya issue.
