Rohingya and Muslims in Arakan State: slow-burning genocide - August 2006

Description: 

"Almost 14 years have passed since the UN General Assembly recognized the suffering the Rohingya experienced at the hands of Burma?s military regime. Yet, Rohingya and Muslims from Burma continue to be subjected to a widespread and systematic campaign of persecution and discrimination at home and the denial of basic protection and fundamental rights in neighboring countries. Often overlooked in global media coverage, the plight of more than 1 million Rohingya and Muslims from Burma should be more closely watched by the international community, to prevent what increasingly appears to be another genocide in the making"
