Myanmar - Oppressive or doing whats right?
What do people think about what is happening in Myanmar.
In the Rakhine state or Myanmar, Rohingyas, immgrants/refugees from elsewhere some of whom have been there for a few generations now (does that make them immigrants anymore?) are fleeing Myanmar and entering Bangladesh. They say it is because of cleansing being done by Myanmar. Myanmar has given reasons as terrorism cleanup and that these people are not Myanmar citizens - indeed they have been given id cards rather than passports. There has also been simmering issues some Rohingyas have with buddhist population - who think they are going to end up reduced to a minority. The UN and western world has criticised Myanmar and specifically Aung San Suu Kyi with strong worded articles doubting her legacy. on the other hand, there are views about how much power still rests with the Military in Myanmar. Coincidentally this was the time of Mr Modi's trip to Myanmar and the Rohingyas have been threatened deportation from India too. Quite a few angles to this saga.... Wonder what happens next..

Re: Myanmar - Oppressive or doing whats right?
We have had this discussions before... but echarcha.com is not on the global scene for global leaders to take note.
The Rohingyas are nothing but victims here... not of terrorism or genocide from Myanmar but terrorism and violence from their own peaceful religion. What is required is education and a global acceptance of a ban on the religion. This has been done successfully with other subjects. Yes, there is an occasionally flare but nazism and mostly communism have been under control for quite some time. Then why not another neo-nazistic concept like the religion of peace ![]() ![]()

Re: Myanmar - Oppressive or doing whats right?
what, Rohingya discussion? hmmmmmm I must have missed the thread then.
for Nazism to be banished, the world had to go through a war. the same war contributed to break up of USSR which resulted in communism losing steam. so.... for the problem with current ideology - we have had wars, Afghanistan, Syria, 'war' against daesh.... has not been enough to break it... ICJ - what role did they play before? not many teeth to this organisation. back to Myanmar though.... Media and people have taken care of not calling them muslims.... the problem does seem to be with people from that community. whats the resolution to the situation then.... its unfair to expect people living at a place over generations to be thrown elsewhere and its unfair for rohingyas to cause trouble to others. I suppose it is cause and effect in some way.

Re: Myanmar - Oppressive or doing whats right?
It is the same thing that is happening everywhere for decades... nay, centuries. And it will keep happening in the future too... and our grand-grand-grand-...-children will be facing it too... if we do not make a decision now. Not saying that if this is taken care of then there will be no other problems. There will always be problems... this is just one of them to take care of.
In fact, remember having the same discussion with Cooldoodle pai... same topic but different country. It was about the general of Serbia and/or Kosovo, who was faced with a similar situation and had taken a similar stand (similar to Aung Sui or whatever her name is, of Myanmar). Back then this general was the hero turned villain. Now it is the turn of this lady. So, people never change ![]()

Since late 1940's , pakis have been arming and providing support to rohingyas to fight against Burma and make rakhine state(the western state of burma where rohingyas live) a part of east pakistan. As a part of that they killed plundered non-muslims. Till 1970 this went on and they gave up for some time, but in 80's with the influx of oil money from middle east, this started once again. There are news that rohingyas burnt their own villages to put the blame on Burma army. Those who could not serve the country they were born in, how are they going to be of any use to India? They should be kicked out along with their beggar deshi brother's.

Re: Myanmar - Oppressive or doing whats right?
While retiring the Vice-President Ansari said that India is not safe for Muslims, then why they want Rohingya Muslims to come to unsafe country? To consolidate muslims power and then they won't be unsafe?
