On World Refugee Day, will there be new hope for Rohingya?

The Myanmar Ethnic Rohingya Human Rights Organisation Malaysia (Merhrom) is deeply disappointed with Myanmar’s new National League for Democracy (NLD) government. Its actions are proof that ethnic Rohingya in Myanmar are facing continuous systematic prosecutions from the Myanmar government.

We face gross human rights violations by the state, we have became victims of alleged genocide for generations and left to die in horrible makeshift camps in our own homeland without food, water and medicine supply from the government.

World Refugee Day is celebrated every year to commemorate the struggles of refugees who forced to flee their country due to war, conflict and human rights abuses. Every year the numbers of refugees and asylum seekers are increasing. (Courtesy of malaysiakini.com)
