Rohingya Life

I was only 40 days old living in Myanmar when my life as a refugee  began. It remains insecure and without  citizenship . Throughout the years, I have struggled to survive while giving voice to those wanting only to be defined freely. Growing up a refugee has brought me to different countries -  Bangladesh ,  Thailand  and  Malaysia . From 1993 to present day my journey has never produced my right to self-determination. Forced to endure horrid experiences, my journey has defined me as a activist representing millions of  Rohingyas  suffering the same fate. Neutrality is not an option when the voice of  Rohingyas  is weakened by political blocs. I have committed my voice, my money and sacrificed my career to advance justice. It seems crazy to some I would sacrifice my future and that of my family. Deteriorating conditions has led to discord within the refugee community.  Activists  are labeled enemy and voices silenced. Solidarity is jeopardized through self-preservati

The leaders in Asian countries seems to turn a blind eye to the plight of rohingyas! None of them care about Rohingya lives. People started coming by boat and secret ways and eventually landing in Malaysia! Deaths will be in sea and border, and that’s very important. However Journalists, Right Activists and Documentary-Maker show their care! Then? Why is there a need for International involvement to assess the situation ? Now two boats are known to have sailed from Myanmar with 34 Rohingya on the first boat arrested in Malaysia today. As many as 300 people are believed to have left Rakhine state, with the fate of most still unknown. The 34 arrested in Pantai Sungai Belati, including nine children. The rest are women. Onlookers have been expecting more Rohingya to flee Myanmar as they continue to be made to feel unwelcome after the ethnic cleansing of 700,000 people who fled to Bangladesh. An increasing number have been arrested traveling through Thailand to Malaysia
