What is the impact of the recent Rohingya aid fund cut?

Now Rohingya people will sell their cheap labor in our market and our Bangladeshi day laborers will lose their job options. It will have a chain reaction which will have the cohesion build-up process between the host and guest community decline. Social tension will arise.

Why is the humanitarian fund for Rohingya declining?


Humanitarian funds basically depend on emotion. After a certain time emotion varies. In 2017, the UN declared the Rohingya crisis a level-3 crisis, which means the topmost emergency. For example, after the earthquake, Turkey is now at level-3. Right now, the Rohingya issue is at level-2, which means a non-emergency crisis. By this time, several disasters have happened worldwide. This is why the focus has been shifted to different areas.

The Rohingya Refugee Crisis Explained

The Knights News
BY ALIYAH ALI 
APRIL 14, 2021
The Rohingyas are a group of people who originated from Myanmar and have since fled to their neighboring Bangladesh for refuge. The Rohingyas, have been subject to an ethnic genocide in the predominantly Buddhist nation of Myanmar. They hail from the Rakhine state and are mostly Muslim. For many years, Rohingyas were left out of major elections, censuses, and unable to vote for several years prior. According to CNN, 87,000 Rohingyas left for Bangladesh on October 6, 2016, the first wave of the migration. This was sparked when a group of Rohingya men killed nine policemen at the Rakhine border, and the Myanmar military retaliated on the community.

Rohingya refugee crisis: 'The bodies were thrown out of the boat'

29 May 2020
Khadiza fled Myanmar after her husband and son were killed 


"Nobody knows how many people have died. It could be 50 or even more," recalls Khadiza Begum.

The 50-year-old was among 396 Rohingya Muslims who had tried to reach Malaysia but who finally returned to the Bangladeshi shore after the boat carrying them was stranded at sea for two months.

Her estimate on the number of deaths comes from the funerals her son officiated as an imam, a Muslim preacher, on the same boat.

The human smugglers never delivered them to their longed-for destination.

BANGKOK — Somewhere in turquoise waters, perhaps where the Bay of Bengal meets the Andaman Sea, wooden boats filled with Rohingya refugees are listing, adrift now for more than 10 weeks.

They were prevented from docking in Malaysia, their preferred destination, and Bangladesh, their port of origin. As of this week, rights groups that had been trying to track the boats by satellite lost sight of them. Each boat — there were at least three — carried hundreds of Rohingya Muslims desperate for sanctuary and at the mercy of human traffickers.
