  • Influx of Rohingya Refugees in Bangladesh by A.S.M
    Global Journal of HUMAN-SOCIAL SCIENCE: F Political Science Volume 21 Issue 1 Version 1.0 Year 2021 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X Influx of Rohingya Refugees in Bangladesh By A.S.M. Firoz-Ul-Hassan Jahangirnagar University Abstract- The Rohingya crisis has ascended as a potential threat to Bangladesh's inside steadiness. Strangely, Bangladesh is currently facilitating around a million displaced Rohingya people which outcomes in genuine worry of national security. Although the repatriation of Rohingya to their homeland will be ambiguous in coming days and at the same time, their stay in Bangladesh might be continuing for a longer period of time. Bangladesh government is struggling as well to control and manage migration risks undermining public confidence in the integrity of government policy. Bangladesh government has been making diplomatic efforts in persuading Myanmar to repatriate the refugees over months but in reality, it is highly unlikely the Bangladesh government will succeed in sending the refugees back to Myanmar in any shortest possible time. Apart from keeping diplomatic efforts continue for their repatriation to Myanmar, Bangladesh government should have appropriate security strategy for addressing the concern of security until arriving in an amicable solution of this prolonged crisis. The paper attempts to discover the potential threat of Rohingya refugees towards the national security as well as to understand the progress Bangladesh has made so far for their repatriation to Myanmar.

As this research aims to inspect the Rakhine-Rohingya relation, I will be analyzing the series of riots that occurred in 2012 and ended as the 2016 crackdown started. This incident epitomizes the resurgence of the persecution of Rohingya Muslims. It marks a new turning point of the conflict between the Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims residing in the Rakhine state of Myanmar. A case study approach will be taken to develop a comprehensive understanding of the issues, and thus provide adequate facts and evidences for making recommendations.

The country is predominantly Buddhist with a growing Muslim population. A long-history of Muslim enslavement by Burma-Buddhists and perceived religious superiority of being Buddhist have caused ongoing quarrels interfering the peaceful coexistence of the two religious groups (Royal Historical Commission of Burma, 1960; World Bank, 2014).

Myanmar’s long-term solution lies in nation-building, which must be intensified in the new year. COMMENTARY IS’ EARLY attempts to insert itself into the communal conflict in Rakhine seemed to have manifested, at best, in tenuous support for the Rohingya; it referenced the need for jihad in Myanmar. In June 2014, when self-proclaimed caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi announced the so-called Islamic State (IS) in his speech that also called for jihad in Myanmar, he promised revenge for atrocities committed against Muslims. In 2016, the amir of IS affiliate in Bangladesh (or IS Bengal) Abu Ibrahim al-Hanif reiterated the call for jihad, viewing Bangladesh as a stepping stone to Myanmar. Other pro-IS groups in Bangladesh also called for jihad in Myanmar to support the Rohingya, including key IS affiliate Neo-Jamaatul Mujahidin Bangladesh. Rise of ARSA Such calls to jihad in Myanmar were also sounded by pro-IS groups in Pakistan and India, such as the Lashkar-e-Toiba and Indian Mujahidin, as well as IS supporters in Southeast Asia.

  • Introduction
    Forum: Human Rights Committee 2 Issue: Reviewing the Human Rights situation in Myanmar Student Officer: Khalifa Elmagarmid Position: Deputy President Introduction During the Second World War, Burma, which is now referred to as Myanmar, was being ruled by the British. However, when the Japanese invaded, the Buddhist chose to support them while the Rohingyas stayed loyal to the British. Despite the British winning the war, the minority Rohingyas were portrayed as the enemies. Even after the war, when Myanmar gained independence, the Rohingyas were blamed for the economic turmoil of the country. Since the start of this internal conflict about 379,000 Rohingyas have fled to Bangladesh, a neighbouring country, as most villages have been burned. The Rohingya are the Muslim minority group in a Buddhist majority Rakhine state. The country of Myanmar has subjected the Rohingyas to torture specifically because of their religious affiliations. The torture is focused in Rakhine although it is also happening in Map of Myanmar Myanmar. This discrimination requires immediate attention as not only are they being denied citizenship, but they're also being murdered and are then choosing to leave their belongings in hopes of starting another life. This ethnic cleansing raises numerous questions surrounding human rights. The Bangladesh's Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has told Myanmar to allow their citizens back, however this has been ignored. The leader of the military, Gen Min Aung Hlaing, said that the country "could not accept and recognise the term 'Rohingya' by hiding the truth". This was said to support the government's claim that the Rohingya are actually from Bangladesh while the Buddhists are originally from Myanmar; the claim is that on March 1942, “Rohingya”, a made up name, was used to cover up their true origins.

  • The Rohingya Crisis
    Southern Ontario Model United Nations Assembly XLVII United Nations Security Council: Rohingya Crisis Topic 002: The Rohingya Crisis The Rohingya Crisis is the world’s fastest growing refugee crisis and a major humanitarian problem1. It thus affects Myanmar, surrounding nations, and the rest of the world2. The Security Council is tasked with ending the crisis and determining what to do with Rohingya refugees. Furthermore, the Council must determine how to approach the Burmese government. It must take into account previous statements by the United Nations and the 2018 conflict between the Burmese government and the UN. A complicated history, uncooperative nations, and millions of lives at stake make this one of the greatest humanitarian crises of our time. It is imperative that the Security Council quickly and effectively find a solution. 1 ​https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-41566561 2 Ibid. Southern Ontario Model United Nations Assembly XLVII United Nations Security Council: Rohingya Crisis History The Rohingya are the historic people of Arakan, a large area on the western coast of Myanmar3. The first recorded civilization in Arakan was ethnically Indian, with Islam and the group now ethnically known as the Rohingya appearing the 8th or 9th century. The Burmese Rakhine seem to have arrived in small numbers no earlier than the late 10th century, most likely the 11th. Arakan then became a part of the Bengal Muslim Kingdom of Mrauk U. Rakhine State (the modern name for the area dominated by the Rohingya) then became a British colony, and then a constituent state of Burma. Tensions between the Buddhist state and Muslim Rohingya was always present, but spiked in 1978 and 1991-92, when the military junta actively persecuted Rohingya.

In our statement for the UN Human Rights Council’s 22 nd session, we called attention to the ethnic conflict between the national government and the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) which had extended well beyond the time of the national government’s assurances to the international community that a lasting peace was a priority and surely well at hand. In spite of a visible peace agreement between the government and the KIA in late May, in recent days alleged government-backed militias have attacked KIA installations. According to The Irrawaddy , a government-backed militia called the Kachin Border Guard Force attacked Kachin bases in two towns in the Pangwa region.
