About 3-4 hundred thousand Rohingya Muslims in Mayu district in Northern Rakhine in 1961. According to the Myanmar Government, Rakhine Government, Buddhist Rakhines and 969 Bamas led by Wirathu, Rohingya birth rate is very high. So after 50 years there should be about 3-4 million Rohingyas in that area alone. There are a lot of Rohingyas, Kamans, Indian Muslims and Myanmar Muslims in other parts of Rakhine.

(AFP photo) By Bangkok Post February 11, 2014 YANGON - German President Joachim Gauck on Tuesday raised concerns over clashes between Myanmar's majority Buddhist and minority Muslim communities, especially the Rohingyas. There has been a surge in sectarian violence since 2012 when fighting broke out in Rakhine State, home to about 800,000 Rohingya Muslims who were made stateless by a law passed in 1982.
