ULA/Arakan Army emphasizes on a better future with Bangladesh on International Mother Language Day




Monday, February 21, 2022




The United League of Arakan (ULA) on the occasion of International Mother language Day on Monday emphasized on bolstering a better future with Bangladesh.

In a media release titled ‘Statement of Solidarity’ the ULA mentioned that it is an occasion for us too to commemorate the diversity of languages and cultures that the Mother World has embraced.

Mentioning that 21 February 2022 is the 23rd International Day of Mother Language, recognized by UNESCO, the ULA/AA has taken the opportunity to congratulate all people of the world on their mother tongue languages.

Mentionable is that the ULA is a political body of the Arakan Army and remain keen in improving ties with Bangladesh. It is one of the most active armed groups in Myanmar (Burma), which is fighting the Union government for their self-determination and sovereignty.

The ULA statement in the beginning paid tributes to the heroes and language, numerous martyrs who died fighting for the recognition of Bengali as the official language in their land during the 1971 Bangladesh War of Independence against the then west Pakistan regime.

Furthermore, the statement added, under the charismatic leadership of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, founding father of Bangladesh, the people of Bangladesh were able to achieve their priceless and invaluable sovereignty and independence in 1971 which is also the primal foundation for maintaining the political and cultural identity of a nation.

The ULA statement also mentioned about the historical ties between the Bengalis and the Arakanese people.

“Our forefathers from the lands of Bengal and Arakan stove to have their respective civilizations thrive on the Bay of Bengal and on the bank Naff river.

They constitute the natural bond between the people and regions of Bangladesh and Arakan. We deeply regard that both of our societies are historically and culturally interlinked. The Arakanese community is a part of the Bengali nation, and in the same way the Bengali community is a part of our Arakan nation. Since both territories are comprised of our brothers and sisters, we firmly believe that it is our responsibility to serve both of our people for the best,” said the statement.

In the concluding paragraph, it expressed pleasure in sending the statement on behalf of the Rakhine people and wished to further enhance future relations with Bangladesh.

“Sending this statement of solidarity on this day on behalf of the Arakan people is an honour for us. We profoundly believe that the restitution of Arakan sovereignty to our people is the ultimate aim of our national liberation movement and the right to our mother tongue language is also a part of that. We desire to bolster a better future between our nations & regions in terms of military, economic, culture and diplomatic relations.

It concluded saying, “Good neighbours shall be good friends. May Bangladesh live forever!”

Whatever the AA leaders say the purpose is to keep BD neutral. But, it is also that the AA troops want safe shelter in BD whenever they are in trouble fighting the MM military.

When AA is talking sweet, the MM junta is also talking sweet. It has sent a Rohingya repatriation proposal to the GoB. This is what FM Abdul Momen told the press about 10 days ago.

BD should not interfere in the internal MM affairs. Let the AA fight and curve out Arakan from MM to create an independent country called Arakan and let it take back the Rohingya citizens of Arakan.

We can still give them moral support and shelter if they need it.
 
Until they formally and unequivocally accept the rohingya i would say no to supporting them. The arakanese scum participated enthusiastically in the ethnic cleansing of the rohingya. I simply do not trust them.

I would however now be for raising an army of rohingya. We need to give them a leg up and train them for the time when inevitably stars will align for them the return and take back their land.

BD must support rohingya sovereignty within the Myanmar federal system if possible or outright sovereignty if that is not possible.

Arakan and the arakanese we should not give a damn about....let the moghs wallow in their proverbial mullok. They are not native of arakan, rohingyas are.

I have watched a social medium telling AA troops are given secret facilities in a remote area with also survival money of @8,000 Taka per person per month. A man can certainly survive with this money,

I am not sure, though!! But, I will not be surprised if it is true. However, we should talk less on this matter. MM needs punishments.
