Subject: Urgent Appeal to End the Humanitarian crisis in Arakan State.
We, the Burmese Rohingya Communities in difference countries, People’s Empowerment Foundation and Human Right NGOs in Thailand would like to express our deep and great concern over the ongoing grave situation in Arakan causing great consideration to the
people. We are sending our great urgent request to you to immediately intervene and protect million Rohingya people of Arakan from planned way genocide.
The quick deterioration of the situation since the end of last week, after a hideous crime against a young lady turned into racial turmoil with the targeting of Muslims by a mob in Taungup, and later with the targeting of Rohingya villagers by racist Rakhine and government forces in Maungdaw Township. It spread all townships in Arakan state. The situation is more violent, the victim is more women, children and elder. Around 800-1000 people are disappeared. We cannot estimate the number of death yet . High numbers are injuring. We are out of true information what is happening inside after imposing the emergency act 144 by military( Martial law). Some contacts phoned told us that para military and racist Rakhine are burning the people houses and shot the people when they come out. Some Rohingyas are burning alive. Rohingya youth are running to hide in the forest. Some are crossing to Bangladesh. All death and wounded bodies are taken away by the government forces.
News comes out from personal talk of military officer and media that government plan to kill and clean all muslin from Arakan state. The information confirms all UN tangencies and NGO left from Arakan State. If there is no intervention in a few days, all of muslim in Arakan will disappear from this world. Killing and burning the houses is still going on every day and night. The situation is going worse and worse. There is no way to stay silent and to watch the people dying.
1. We urged the immediate action to stop this serious genocide, ethnic cleaning by sending UN peace keeping force to Arakan to protect innocent people.
2. We urge UN to send UN mission to control the serious situation in Arakan State and save the remaining Rohingyas as quickly as possible.
3. It is very serious and grave situation and urgent need for international intervention to save the people life.
4. We called International media to monitor closely on the serious situation in Arakan.
5. We urge International Humanitarian group to step up its presence in Arakan State to support humanitarian work
6. We want to hear the explanation of the real situation in Arakan State from the Burma regime.
7. We also demand that the UN constitutes an independent and impartial inquiry commission on investigate the crime against Humanity and bring the culprits to justics.
Respectfully,
Maung Kyaw Nu
