Joint Statement by Rohingya organisations
ROHINGYA CLEANSING CONTINUED IN ARAKAN UNDER STATE PROGRAMME, U.N. PEACEKEEING FORCE MOST URGENT

Nowhere To Go: Politics, Fear And A Whole Lot Of Good People
U Kyaw Thar is a decent family man. He contributes to charity, helps the needy and dotes on his children. The second time we meet, he apologises for being late because he was at his son’s birthday party, and then he leaves early because his wife wants him home for dinner. He’s a decent family man.
