A number of Rohingya refugee children in camps in Bangladesh have issued banners on behalf of the global organization Peace Without Borders, calling on the world to bring peace to their homeland in Myanmar and to the world to pay attention to them and help them get back their usurped rights and repatriate them.
“We seek peace, security and peaceful coexistence in our homeland in Myanmar, but we have only found killing, ethnic cleansing and genocide against us. We call upon the international community,and all UN organizations to do the necessary work and communicate with the government of Myanmar to redress our rights” .
Human rights and human rights reports indicate that large numbers of Rohingya children wander among the camps without any means of care, education, shelter, treatment and living in tragic conditions after being displaced from Arakan State in western Myanmar to Bangladesh.
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) said earlier: that nearly 340 thousand children from the Rohingya live in a dirty situation in camps inside Bangladesh and lack adequate food, clean water and health care.
“Up to 12,000 more children join these children every week to escape violence or hunger in Myanmar and are still shocked by the atrocities they have witnessed,” the organization said in a report, “Outcasts and Injustice”.
Rohingya is a peaceful people facing Myanmar’s official violence machine for decades and the world is still waiting for a radical solution to their worsening crisis.
