An Escalating Rohingya Refugee Crisis Calls for a Renewed Canadian Response

ASIA PACIFIC FOUNDATION
Authors: Pia Silvia Rozario, Suyesha Dutta

In a 19-point statement, leaders called on the Myanmar Armed Forces to reduce violence and cease deliberate attacks on civilians, residences, and essential public infrastructure. One of the most visible examples of such violence carried out by the Myanmar military pre-dates the current civil war: the persecution of the Rohingya, a majority-Muslim ethnic group, many of them from Rakhine State in the west.

As a railway bridge over a small creek explodes in a shower of debris, a group of resistance fighters can’t contain their jubilation. “It’s collapsed – totally collapsed! This is so cool!” shouts one of the fighters.
