Myanmar: "Systematically driving Rohingyas"

Rohingyas are still fleeing from Rakhine for fear of State run Genocide

Myanmar’s security forces are systematically forcing Rohingyas to flee to Bangladesh

At least 10 Rohingya families consisting of 54 members have arrived to Bangladesh from Akyab (Sittwe), the capital of Arakan (Rakhine) state, Myanmar on Monday, July 30, 2018, according to AT source.

Myanmar government’s security forces are forcing the Rohingyas to flee who are still living in IDP camps and villages inside the conflict torn Rakhine state.

The Rohingyas who are still living in Rakhine are facing restriction of all sources including movement, education and medicament. Moreover the NVC is main issue, said “without NVC can’t move”.

As for Rohingyas, NVC is the root cause of the ongoing state run ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity and genocide along Rakhine state.

These newly arrived Rohingyas said, “We were not able to earn our livelihood since the government imposed stringent restriction on our movement in Sittwe for refusing NVC”.

Rohingyas in Sittwe are totally banned from movement which is forcing the Rohingya flee to Bangladesh since they have no option to survive in Myanmar.

The 10 families comprising 54 Rohingya members crossed the Naf-river into Bangladesh by a rickety boat taking high risk of life as they were compelled by Myanmar security forces’ systematic persecutions against remaining Rohingyas.

“We have no choice to live in Myanmar except to flee to Bangladesh since the Myanmar security forces are conducting various kind systematic persecutions against us in Myanmar” said a woman.

Now the newly arrived 54 Rohingya members are temporarily taking shelter in Shalban new settlement camp in Teknaf.

The UN and world community are trying to solve the Rohingya issue but Myanmar government is still driving out the remaining Rohingyas.

"No more hope on government of Myanmar for repatriation of Rohingya refugees, which comprised about 1.1 million, living in risky slums along southern Cox's bazaar of Bangladesh. MoU and other activities are just to show to the world, playing games. Government of Myanmar is not honest." @mir_sidiquee.
