Ziaur Rahman, Rohingya

-
Many people told me I am inspiration to others and that I am brave...I AM NOT...I am just trying to show how the rohingya get through. They are the people who are inspiring, strong, courageous and brave.

Those people who are jealous and non rohingya/refugees make me brave. They have taught me, trained me, gave me insight in my work and give me lessons everyday!

You all are my inspiration! 🙏

“Survivor: My life as a Rohingya refugee” Thanks to Allah, The Almighty who enabled me to publish my journey!

They were taken to uninhabited islands off Thailand used as a base for smuggling, eventually to be trucked south to Malaysia. The group had been divided–some were still in hiding on the island, some had already been trucked south, & Ziaur was among a group of 53 men hiding in the bushes when Thai police intercepted them. The traffickers fled & the Rohingya & Bangladeshi men were incarcerated as undocumented immigrants rather than treated as trafficking victims & asylum seekers–a common human rights abuse in most countries, including the US.

Recent photos from my village in Myanmar shows there is no one is left behind in my village. We have left of our ancestral homeland to escape brutal persecutions and ongoing  Genocide  in  Myanmar . Most of those who managed to escape took refuge in  Bangladesh ,  India ,  Thailand ,  Malaysia  and others countries as well. And few of them were killed by the Myanmar authorities including one of my uncle.  We can find here the mosque is no longer existing in my village in Fáñthia Fara, Mee Chaung Zay, Buthidaung township which was built by Alia borow before 1956. I was an infant when my family fled to Bangladesh between 1992 - 1993. The last exodus was in 2017. So sad to see all the horrible scenes and plight of our people which is on going. We have worked hard. We have no tears left and no hope left as to whether we can go back to our homeland Myanmar. We still hope we can return to Myanmar with ...
