Save Rohingya
Rohingya people in Rakhine State, Myanmar are facing genocide from their own government. This thing actually has started for years, and it's only getting worse, Rohingya people left (and try to leave Myanmar) to other countries to save their lives. So many Rohingya people has passed away due to the slaughtered by their own government. Their villages are burnt. I've read many people comments that Rohingya people deserve this. Things like "Muslim got what they always do" "they deserve it, they illegally immigrate to the country" "it's time for the Muslim to reap their own seed" etc. Some straight up don't believe this, because "how could such a violent religion like Islam being the victim?" Okay, so, Rohingya people first come to Myanmar in 1885 when Britain colonialized Myanmar (we know how much colonial countries Britain have). These people then called "Benghali" by the Burmese. They later on lived in Rakhine state, and known as Rohingya. In 1931 census there where thousands of Rohingya people in Myanmar. [I got this information from the Ambassador of Myanmar in my country, a news program in my country interviewed him about Rohingya]. The nowadays generation of Rohingya people were born and raised in Myanmar, and so did their parents. They are the 4th or 5th (or maybe even more) generation. They live in Myanmar all their lives, Myanmar is the only home they know. Myanmar is their country. They are not people who recently come to the country illegally and straight up demand equality, education, etc. How could you say the deserve this? They are being slaughtered. Their homes and villages were burnt down. How could you say they deserve this because the deed done by other people, by some extremist who cause chaos and destruction? They are not ISIS. They are not Taliban. They are not Al Qaeda. They are civilian, with no weapon whatsoever, being slaughtered by their authority. They are innocent people. Thousand of Rohingya has left Myanmar to other countries (especially to Bangladesh). Thousands more are waiting. I watched (in tv) some journalist visited Rohingya refugee camps. They interviewed the Rohingya. And they were desperately asking for help, they lost their family. Some of their family still in Myanmar, desperately need help. Even in you still think they are "illegal immigrant" is genocide the right thing to do? Is genocide need to be done? They are human, if you forget. You should see more. There are news and vids out there. These people being slaughtered. And no, they don't want to "change" Myanmar culture. They don't want to "replace" Myanmar culture. They live in Rakhine State for years. They are minding their own religion, their own tradition. They don't want to change Myanmar. Suu Kyi, a noble winner, de facto leader of Myanmar, also the county advisor, has stated that the anger against Myanmar is because fake news that spread widely in social media. She also stated that all Burmese has the same right (she didn't directly mention Rohingya in this, don't know if she considered Rohingya isn't part of Myanmar). Anyway, let's not let this deceived us. If everything is okay, if that's all just fake news, then why would thousands of people from certain ethnicity left the country for nothing? Why would thousands more now trying to do the same? Why would they cry for help? Why would their villages burnt down? Why would some countries express their concern about Rohingya, even some already sending help? Why would there are so many military in Rakhine? Why would Burmese government limit the foreign journalist access and freedom? Why would these journalists need to be "accompany" by the military? They are human, this is humanity problem. Please, look pass all the differences. We talk about innocent civilians here.
