Analyst: Malaysia can do more than organise rallies for Rohingya

Malaysia can do much more for the Rohingya than just organise rallies for them, said a political analyst.

Centre for Global Affairs Malaysia (Icon) advisor Abdul Razak Baginda (pic) said Malaysia can bring up the issue with the UN Security Council.

He said China could reject the the resolution, but putting it on the table before the United Nations will create awareness on the international arena.

“Even if it is going to be vetoed, it doesn’t matter. The point is it is being raised by Malaysia,” he said at a forum on the plight of the Rohingya Thursday night.

He said Malaysia had for so long championed the rights of the Palestinians and more recently the Bosnians, receiving kudos for it. (Courtesy of thestar.com.my)
