605,00 rohingya refugees have fled to South
Eastern Bangladesh(Cox’x Bazar district) alone,and
more to other surrounding countries, and major
Muslim nations.

Myanmar was around 1.0 to 1.3million,chiefly in the
northern Rakhine townships,which are 80-90% Rohingya.

9. Impact on Politics of Bangladesh
Bangladesh-Myanmar borders
for the fleeing persecuted
Rohingya people from
Myanmar’s Rakhine
State. Following this, the
daughter of the Father of the
Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh
Mujibur Rahman, Sheikh Hasina,
has come to be known as the
‘Mother of Humanity’.

10. Five steps can be taken towards achieving justice,
repatriation and the rebuilding of Rohingya communities
in Myanmar
1. First, there is emerging a network of state actors
2. Second, the coalition needs to start inter-state conversation about de-militarization of
northern Rakhine
3. Third, as part of the neighboring state, Bangladeshi troops across the border need to
step up their security functions to ease Myanmar’s (un-warranted) fear of Islamist
“penetration” into the Rohingya communities.
4. Fourth, individual nations that are prepared to be a part of this coalition can take
unilateral actions designed to signal to Myanmar -- and the world -- that genocide is
the red line that no fellow UN member will be allowed to cross.
5. Fifth and finally, on the economic front, the governments within the coalition should
advise their national investors to either divest from the Myanmar market or not to
invest in the country.

12. Prime minister: Rohingyas a threat to national,
regional security
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said the 1.1 million
Rohingyas, who were given shelter in Bangladesh after they
fled from Myanmar in the face of persecution, were not only a
threat to the security for this country but also the region.

13. The long-term
dispossession of the
Rohingyas creates
several security
threats
for the whole
region. These are
to a large extent
latent but will not
remain so for long. The Balukhali camp in Cox's Bazar Bangladesh on March 07,

14. International Relationship between
Myanmar and Bangladesh and with other
countries can be harmed.
China and India, the two big powers in the region,
have explicitly or implicitly backed the regime. The
Modi government has mirrored the Myanmar
government line, calling Rohingyas “illegal
Bengalis” and “terrorists.”
