VOA
Since last week, more than 1,000 Rohingya people displaced from Burma have been camping in the Indian capital, Delhi, seeking refugee status from the UN refugee agency. Over the years, thousands of Rohingyas - a Muslim minority group in Burma - have fled to India to escape persecution. Avinash Dutt of the BBC Hindi service speaks to some to them to find out about their problems
MOHAMMED ALAM
I live in Jammu in Indian-administered Kashmir along with my wife and seven children. To make ends meet, I deal in scrap plastic.
I had come to Delhi to seek refugee status from the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), but we didn't get it. Now we are going back. Unlike in Burma, my life is safe in India, but there is nothing else.
Here, our children don't get admission in schools and we are not allowed to bury our dead in graveyards.
I believe if I have refugee status, my life will be better. If I have a refugee card, we would be entitled to some monthly allowances and our children would get to see school from the inside and our dead would become eligible for a grave.
Whatever happens, I will not go back to Burma. There they will imprison me or bury me alive.
MOHAMMED YASIN
People talk about democratic reforms in Burma, about [opposition leader] Aung San Suu Kyi. But I tell them that we will go back to Burma when we feel that it is safe to return.
The military still rules Burma. You have to pay a tax on every egg that your hen lays. I fled Burma because I was asked to pay a large sum as tax to get married.
Here, you can move around till 10pm but in Burma you cannot venture out after 6pm. We cannot even stand in front of our homes.
In India, I have no identity so my 11-year-old son cannot get admission in a school. The asylum seeker card the UNHCR has given me is useless; it does not even bear my father's name.
If the UNHCR grants me refugee status, I will have a card that will have my father's name on it. My son will get admission in some school then.
MOHAMMED NOOR
My family used to own a cloth shop in Burma. Last year, I had a fight with the owner of an adjoining shop who is Buddhist. My entire family was attacked.
I ran away, crossed mountains and swam across a river to reach India.
I went to Calcutta first. There, I did some odd jobs, saved some money to reach Aligarh [in Uttar Pradesh] where I had heard that a few of my relatives lived. I don't know where the rest of my family is.
Like us, many non-Muslims have also fled Burma for India. Buddhists and other non-Muslims have been given refugee status here. So they get monetary assistance and other facilities, but because we are not recognised as refugees, we don't get anything.
I cannot think of going back to Burma. They will shoot me there. I still have bullet marks on my body.
MOHAMMED HAMID
In India, I have been living in Aligarh town for the last couple of years. The card that the UNHCR has given us is useless.
Many of the people who got refugee status earlier have gone abroad, many of them are getting monthly allowances.
I am told that if I get refugee status, I can get an identity card, I can get a passport as well.
Without the refugee status my life is very tough. If we get sick, we cannot get treatment in a government hospital unless we pay.
I ran away from Burma because I was not allowed to go to school or do the trade of my choice. Life here is not easy either, but it is safe.
MONTESERAT FEIXAS VIHE, UNHRC CHIEF OF MISSION
While Rohingya people are concerned about their security and safety in India, the government of India has assured us that they will not deport them.
On the basis of the asylum-seeker card issued by the UNHCR, the government has agreed to grant them long-stay visas.
The long-stay visas will give them a legal validity and will also entitle them to all the basic facilities like schooling and health.
We are totally satisfied with what the Indian government has done for them.

NEW DELHI // A month-long standoff between the ethnic Rohingya people of Myanmar, backed by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), and the Indian government ended yesterday with the government agreeing to grant long-term visas to the Rohingya.
The UNHCR called the government's decision "a huge step forward for their protection and safety in India". But the decision does not give the Rohingya what many of them sought - official refugee status. That would have allowed them access to a resettlement programme in a third country and financial assistance from UNHCR if they are unable to work.
Sujzaed Islam, 32, who has lived in India for the past four years, described the Indian government's visa decision as "muddy".
"We now have to go back to where we came from in India and apply for new visas. People already fear the Indian system, so this does not make it any easier," he said.
"I was reduced to being a porter for the [Myanmar] military even though I got the highest marks in school. I was not allowed to go to college."
Three decades ago, the government of Myanmar said the Rohingya, along with other ethnic minorities, did not qualify for citizenship, thus denying them many rights.
About 2,500 Rohingya, who are all Muslim, participated in the protest in New Delhi in an effort to obtain better access to refugee services in India, where about 7,000 refugees from Myanmar have registered with the UNHCR in New Delhi.
According to Human Rights Watch, there are an estimated 100,000 refugees from Myanmar living in the north-east of India. The UNHCR has no access to this part of the country because the border is contested. Travel, by both Indians and foreigners, to the region that borders China and Myanmar is carefully monitored by the Indian government.
Many of the protesters in New Delhi had feared they would be sent back to Myanmar as the April elections indicated the country, long ruled by a military junta, was embracing political reform.
A week ago the police removed the protesters from their makeshift camp in front of the UNHCR's office in Delhi.
They then squatted outside the Sultan Garhi tomb in Vasant Kunj in Delhi until yesterday.
The Rohingya who participated in the protest returned to their jobs across India yesterday, after assurances by the UNHCR that the government would provide the long-term visas.
Zaibur Rahman, 26, came to New Delhi with his wife and eight-month-old child, Misbah, to join the protest. He had been working as an electrician in the state of Uttar Pradesh for the past four years. He fled Myanmar after the military junta took away his uncle and his brothers for "being caretakers of a mosque", said Mr Rahman.
"We are stateless there and we are refugees here. All I want is for my child to not meet the same fate as the rest of my family."
India does not grant refugees and those seeking asylum the right to work in the country. Instead, they work in what Indians call the informal sector, as maids, waiters or in garment factories, where identification papers are rarely an issue.
The UNHCR said that India's ad hoc system makes protecting vulnerable people especially challenging.
"In India, there is no national legal framework for refugees and because of this, there are different approaches to different groups of people," said Nayana Bose, with the UNHCR. This means that the status and rights of each refugee group must be negotiated.
Despite the hurdles, Sayed Islam, who fled Myanmar for India a decade ago, has no intention of returning.
He brought his eight children and wife to the protests in New Delhi from their home in Jammu and Kashmir where he works as a day labourer.
Mr Islam always carries a one-kyat currency note to remind him of his home country, along with his Myanmar ID card.
"We are restricted in [Myanmar] and are not even allowed to travel to neighbouring villages without permission," he said. "Our daughters cannot get married without official consent. Our sons cannot attend college. Our land has been taken away from us."
"We left for a better life and we do not want to go back. We want to live here with better rights."

The photo exhibition- "Stateless Rohingya…Running on Empty" would be launched at Foreign Corespondents Club of Thailand-FCCT from 7pm of Friday May 18, 2012.
"Stateless Rohingya…Running on Empty" is an exhibition by award-winning photographer Suthep Kritsanavarin. It features images captured over three years throughout the region.
This presentation is an in-depth portrayal of the plight of the Rohingyas, an ethnic and religious minority in Myanmar – one of the world's most persecuted – and the international diaspora of their community from Australia to Malaysia.
Powerful images chronicle the story of a people estranged in their own homeland; denied citizenship, education and jobs in Burma – and their perilous journeys by boat in search of a land where they may claim as home.
Suthep, who is known for his pictures of the Mekong River, has also produced a short (12-minute) documentary that reveals the political and social challenges of this stateless community from northern Arakan/Rakhine state, acknowledged by human rights activists as one of the region's most unknown neglected people.
The documentary will be shown at a panel on May 23 to coincide with his exhibition.
The panel will address questions about the identity of the Rohingyas and why have fled their land, the historical source of the Myanmar government's denial of statehood and their struggle for humanitarian recognition.
Human Rights Watch representative Phil Robertson will attend to talk about the plight of the Rohingya, along with a top Thai academic, a Rohingya leader Maung Kyaw Nu (a Former Political Prisoner of Conscience and currently Chairman of Burmese Rohingya Association in Thailand -BRAT) and Intl award winner photo-journalist Suthep.
FCCT invites you to join in the launch of the photo show (May 18) and the panel (May 23) to discuss the situation of the Rohingya.

Mr. Nurul Islam, the president of Arakan Rohingya National Organization (ARNO) based in London who had given an interview on recent situation of Rohingya after Thein Sein’s new government’s reform process towards the democracy.
Mr. Nurul Islam, the president of Arakan Rohingya National Organization (ARNO)
KPN: The Thein Sein’s new government held meetings with ethnic groups such as - Karen, Mon. Rakhine, Shan, Chin and Kachin--etc, but the government excludes the Rohingya community. Regarding this, what is your opinion?
ARNO: The exclusion of Rohingyas asserts that U Thein Sein government has no change of attitude towards them. It is still pursuing policies of exclusion, discrimination and persecution against Rohingyas. We remind the government that Rohingyas are an integral part of the Burma’s society regardless of their appearance, ethnicity and religion.
KPN: The Rakhine community has been campaigning against the Rohingya community inside Burma and abroad. Do you think that there will be any solution between the two communities, why?
ARNO: Rakhines are our immediate compatriots and they are our brothers. We had lived in Arakan peacefully in share and share alike. Still we are living in the same place drinking the same water and breathing the same air; not only so but we have to live together until the end of the world. Arakan is our own whereas Burma is for all of us. Together we can achieve much. We should take lesson from the history. It is futile exercise to preach and promote hostility against Rohingyas. Extremism, xenophobia and confrontation will not be of assistance to Rakhine people. It is time not to dispute but to work in unison with full understanding which will lead our children to a state of extreme happiness. Based on ‘Arakan reality’ peaceful coexistence between our two sister communities is the only solution. It is very much possible. They only thing we all need is ‘will to do’.
KPN: There are some changes in Burma after the new government, but no policy is changed over the Rohingya people and the persecutions against the Rohingya community is going on bad to worst day by day. Regarding this, what is your comment?
ARNO: Yes, there are some positive changes in Burma. But so far no wind of change has touched the Rohingya people. It means that good sense does not prevail yet in the minds of the authorities. Nowadays the Rohingyas have to experience series of racist and xenophobic activities of the government and non-state extremists. They are not treated as citizens and the persecution against them callous. End to persecution and discrimination against Rohingya is a yardstick for judging how far U Thein Sein government is sincere towards restoration of democracy and promotion of human rights in Burma. The government must genuinely accommodate ethnic Rohingya in country’s democratic and political process as one of the members of the family of the Union of Burma. A peaceful negotiated settlement of the Rohingya issue and problem is most urgent in the interest of peace and democracy in Burma.
KPN: Regarding all the above situations, especially for the Rohingya community, what are your future plans and programs and what do you want to say to the present government, NLD and the international community?
ARNO: The primary factor that has led the Rohingyas to suffer grave human rights violations or crimes against humanity in Burma is their religion and ethnicity. Arbitrary deprivation of Rohingyas’ citizenship, rendering them stateless in their own homeland, is an international crime. We will continue our just struggle for freedom from servitude and oppression. We will work in solidarity with country’s democratic forces. We will explore all available national and international avenues for the restitution of our inalienable rights and freedom.
We wish to be responsible citizens of the country and urge upon the government to treat Rohingyas justly and reasonably well. It requires to genuinely accommodating Rohingyas as one of the many ethnic nationalities of the Union of Burma and treating them equals in Arakan. It is urgent that the repressive 1982 Burma citizenship Law in particular, which violates several fundamental principles of customary international law standards, must be amended in conformity with the generally accepted citizenship practices and provisions of international law. Rohingya should be legitimately allowed to be a part of the on-going political and democratic process, and their citizenship rights and ethnic rights have to be guaranteed on par with other ethnic groups of the country.
We have high expectation of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. But she has been, so far, surprisingly silent on the Rohingya issue, a problem of serious human rights violations in the country. As a democratic icon we urge upon her to speak out for the voiceless Rohingyas on democratic principle and universalism of human rights.
Meanwhile, we call on the International community, UN, OIC, EU, ASEAN, UK, and Burma’s neighbours to put pressure on the ruling Burmese government to stop forthwith persecution against Rohingya and to grant their citizenship and ethnic rights. We also urge upon them to provide them with ‘international protection’ in the absence of ‘national protection’.
KPN: What is your opinion about the participation of NLD parliament members in recently held parliament in Naypidaw, in Burma?
ARNO: It is a development in Burma politics that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and NLD MPs are participating in Parliament Naypyidaw, although they are likely to face a difficult future to being about a complete change towards democratic reform.

CHIANG MAI, 16 May 2012 (IRIN) - A recent decision to undertake a national census could prove key to empowering Myanmar’s more than 100 ethnic groups, provided it is inclusive and conducted to international standards.
“Potentially, the census would have a very positive affect on the ethnic areas and could serve to support claims for ethnic rights in education, language and culture that in some areas is repressed by the state and military,” David Scott Mathieson, a senior researcher in the Asia division of Human Rights Watch (HRW), told IRIN.
The government lists 135 ethnic groups, comprising more than a third of Burma’s 55 million inhabitants, which are grouped into eight national races: Burman, Kachin, Kayah, Karen, Chin, Mon, Rakhine and Shan.
The United Nations agreed on 30 April 2012 to assist the Burmese government in conducting its first census in 31 years. The project will start in April 2014, ahead of the next general election in 2015.
“It’s incredibly important to have a census at this time, both to support the gradually expanding reforms and because there hasn’t been a census since 1983,” Mathieson said, noting that there had been severe limitations on gathering the data at the time, as ongoing armed conflict had excluded significant parts of the country.
Karen State in the east of the country is one such area, where the long-standing conflict between Karen forces and Burma’s successive governments has hampered development for more than 60 years.
Healthcare and education standards in southeastern Myanmar are described as among the worst in Asia.
According to the Thai Burma Border Consortium (TBBC), an umbrella group of NGOs working along the border, fighting has displaced more than 400,000 people.
Although the Karen National Union (KNU), which has been fighting for greater autonomy from the Burmese government for decades, is now in the initial steps of implementing a ceasefire, the census process could prove just as difficult to carry out.
“Right now, not many people in Karen state are aware of the proposed census, so the government will need to do a lot more to inform the communities about it,” said Knaw Paw, spokesperson for the Karen Women's Organization.
“There is an urgent need to get accurate information out to international organizations and institutions, so that they are aware of the real situation on the ground in Karen State, where healthcare and education issues have been largely ignored by the Myanmar government,” Knaw Paw said.
That will take careful planning, particularly as to how the survey is conducted. Za Uk Lin, of the Chin Human Rights Organization, expressed concern that the census methodology might be skewed. “There is a significant number of Chin who can no longer speak their ethnic language fluently, so they are often mistaken for or classified as Burman,” Lin said.
According to the 1983 census, the majority Burman ethnic group accounted for 69 percent of the population.
Some 500,000 people live in Chin State, described by the United Nations as the poorest of Myanmar’s 14 regions and states, with 73.3 percent of the population living below the poverty line and having limited access to healthcare and education. Another 100,000 Chin, having fled persecution, live across the border in neighbouring India’s Mizoram State.
There is also the challenge of ensuring that everyone living in Myanmar, regardless of race, is covered, including the Rohingya, who are officially classified as “stateless”. Activists say this ethnic, linguistic and religious (Muslim) minority, has long faced persecution.
“In Myanmar, the term ‘Rohingya’ is not recognized by the government and, therefore, it does not feature in the official list of 135 national races whose membership guarantees full citizenship,” said Chris Lewa, director of the Arakan Project, an advocacy group for Rohingya. “[It is] shocking that Myanmar’s government would only consider to include in this census people belonging to the ‘national races’.”
There are some 800,000 Rohingya living in northern Rakhine State, while 200,000 or more fled persecution and are now living in Bangladesh, according to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR).

Will the government count the Rohingya?
Another challenge, said HRW’s Mathieson, are the “countless thousands of stateless hill-tribe people in Shan State and other border areas, plus thousands of civilians who have never been registered as Burmese citizens. [They have] no birth certificates, ID cards, or passports because they grew up in insurgent -controlled areas or refugee camps or migrant worker communities.”
Such groups could strongly benefit from the upcoming census, as well as from the expected increase in international donor support, given the country’s ongoing political reforms. How that aid is spent, and its effectiveness, will require better information on the ground.
“There is a dire need for the census to guide Myanmar's rural development and poverty reduction strategy, and 5-year national development plan. How can such plans be developed and monitored without accurate data on the number of people residing in the country, their age structure and sex, geographical locations, access to healthcare, water and sanitation?” said Mohamed Abdel-Ahad, country representative for the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).
In the two years leading up to the census, UNFPA will be assisting in surveyor training and drafting the forms that will be completed during the data collection exercise.
At the signing of the agreement to undertake the census, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he was “very encouraged by the government’s strong commitment to the project”, and urged donors to support it.
Myanmar’s Vice-President, Sai Mauk Kham, said his government “will cooperate closely with UNFPA to oversee the quality of the census, so that the result will be accurate and up to international standards”.

Za Uk Lin, of the Chin Human Rights Organization, expressed concern that the census methodology might be skewed. “There is a significant number of Chin who can no longer speak their ethnic language fluently, so they are often mistaken for or classified as Burman,” Lin said.
According to the 1983 census, the majority Burman ethnic group accounted for 69 percent of the population.
Some 500,000 people live in Chin State, described by the United Nations as the poorest of Myanmar’s 14 regions and states, with 73.3 percent of the population living below the poverty line and having limited access to healthcare and education. Another 100,000 Chin, having fled persecution, live across the border in neighbouring India’s Mizoram State.
There is also the challenge of ensuring that everyone living in Myanmar, regardless of race, is covered, including the Rohingya, who are officially classified as “stateless”. Activists say this ethnic, linguistic and religious (Muslim) minority, has long faced persecution.
“In Myanmar, the term ‘Rohingya’ is not recognized by the government and, therefore, it does not feature in the official list of 135 national races whose membership guarantees full citizenship,” said Chris Lewa, director of the Arakan Project, an advocacy group for Rohingya. “[It is] shocking that Myanmar’s government would only consider to include in this census people belonging to the ‘national races’.”
There are some 800,000 Rohingya living in northern Rakhine State, while 200,000 or more fled persecution and are now living in Bangladesh, according to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR).

Will the government count the Rohingya?
Another challenge, said HRW’s Mathieson, are the “countless thousands of stateless hill-tribe people in Shan State and other border areas, plus thousands of civilians who have never been registered as Burmese citizens. [They have] no birth certificates, ID cards, or passports because they grew up in insurgent -controlled areas or refugee camps or migrant worker communities.”
Such groups could strongly benefit from the upcoming census, as well as from the expected increase in international donor support, given the country’s ongoing political reforms. How that aid is spent, and its effectiveness, will require better information on the ground.
“There is a dire need for the census to guide Myanmar's rural development and poverty reduction strategy, and 5-year national development plan. How can such plans be developed and monitored without accurate data on the number of people residing in the country, their age structure and sex, geographical locations, access to healthcare, water and sanitation?” said Mohamed Abdel-Ahad, country representative for the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).
In the two years leading up to the census, UNFPA will be assisting in surveyor training and drafting the forms that will be completed during the data collection exercise.
At the signing of the agreement to undertake the census, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he was “very encouraged by the government’s strong commitment to the project”, and urged donors to support it.
Myanmar’s Vice-President, Sai Mauk Kham, said his government “will cooperate closely with UNFPA to oversee the quality of the census, so that the result will be accurate and up to international standards”.

BANGKOK, Thailand — To US President Barack Obama, she’s a “a hero of mine.” To Burma’s military hardliners, she’s a “traitor” best confined to her decaying family mansion.Now, US diplomats have a new name for Aung San Suu Kyi: Burma’s “powerful and principal interlocutor.”
After years of wilting under house arrest, the 66-year-old democracy icon is again ascendent, this time as a broker between the West and a new wave of army-backed leaders trumpeting reforms.
The daughter of Burma’s slain revolutionary founder, Aung San Suu Kyi has come to epitomize poise under persecution. She has suffered confinement, assassination attempts and the quashing of her 1990 election to the prime minister’s seat by a military junta.
Through non-violent resistance to government oppression, she is widely considered a successor to Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. But neither man sought elected office.
Soon, Aung San Suu Kyi will.

In a by-election with a still-unannounced date, she and her recently-unbanned party will seek seats in parliament.
In confinement, she was exalted and considered virtually above criticism. In playing politics, she runs the risk of disappointing her faithful. Just how will Aung San Suu Kyi’s reputation fare if she’s elected into a murky political arena?
“With all of us loving her so much, we worry,” said Khin Ohmar, coordinator of Burma Partnership, a pro-democracy network based on the Thai-Burma border. Like many other Burmese exiles, Khin Ohmar fled after a 1988 army crackdown against Aung San Suu Kyi and her democracy uprising.

Hearing her idol urge trust in an army-supported government, which rose to power last year in a rigged election, brings conflicting feelings, Khin Ohmar said.
Aung San Suu Kyi has told both her followers and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a recent visitor, that Burma’s new President Thein Sein is sincere.
“I believe in every horrible regime there are good people,” Khin Ohmar said. “There are many bureaucrats that carry on military rule but know it’s wrong. That’s how they survive.”
“[Aung San Suu Kyi] says the president is sincere, so world leaders won’t question it,” Khin Ohmar said. “Fine. But I will continue questioning whether he can deliver what he promised.”
What the president has promised is extraordinary: legalizing criticism of the government (for decades punishable by decades in prison) and opening up Burma’s long-shuttered economy.

Clinton ended her December visit by endorsing loans to Burma from the International Monetary Fund, and development assistance from the United Nations. The Burmese junta’s abuses have long justified Western sanctions and scared off foreign donors.
Fixing Burma’s shambolic economy will be no simple feat. But taming low-grade civil wars waged for six decades by various ethnic groups — which represent roughly 40 percent of the population — could prove much more difficult.
In his inaugural March speech, Burma’s president said armed ethnic militias had been devoted to “dogmatism, sectarian strife and racism instead of rebuilding the nation.”
But he also vowed to improve roads, hospitals and schools to mend separatist territories into a functioning nation. As it stands, most ethnic groups still defend their turf with AK-47s and rocket-propelled grenades.
“Lip services and talks are not enough to achieve national unity,” said Thein Sein, according an official government translation.
More from GlobalPost: Is China threatened by a more open Burma?
Aung San Suu Kyi’s father, who liberated Burma from British colonialists, had signed an agreement to give full autonomy to the ethnic “frontier areas.” Though the 1947 plan was later abandoned, it has given his daughter credibility among ethnic separatists, even though she hails from the same “Burman” ethnicity that still dominates the country.
“We are the majority, the biggest group in Burma,” Aung San Suu Kyi said in a recent Skype interview with the Council for Foreign Relations. “But we’re just one of many.”
Not all, however, are convinced she can force the new government to honor its promise to Burma’s besieged ethnic nationalities.
“If she can secure this, then we’ll work with her,” said Nurul Islam, head of the Arakan Rohingya National Organization. “But we don’t see many changes coming in the future.”
His ethnic group — the 3.5 million member Muslim Rohingya of Burma’s western coast — are perhaps the most oppressed of all. Both the past and present regimes have insisted they are unworthy of citizenship. The junta’s top emissary in Hong Kong notoriously called them “ugly as ogres.”
“In Burma’s parliament, they openly reject our people. Democracy’s alright, but ethnic groups are the mega-issue,” Nurul Islam said. “We placing very high expectations on Aung San Suu Kyi.”
Aung San Suu Kyi has acknowledged that her foray into political gamesmanship could scuff up her reputation. As she reportedly told her party, the National League for Democracy, “some people are worried that taking part could harm my dignity. Frankly, if you do politics, you should not be thinking about your dignity.”
“It is a difficult transition from icon to politician,” said Jim Della-Giacoma, the International Crisis Group’s Southeast Asia Project Director. “Politicians have to compromise. It’s much more difficult to maintain popularity when you have to make difficult choices.”
“With the National League for Democracy in the legislature, or with Aung San Suu Kyi as a member of parliament,” Della-Giacoma said, “they’ll be associated with all legislation, whether it’s inspired, flawed or just mediocre.”

Chittagong, Bangladesh: The Bangladesh Foreign Minister Dipu Moni in her statement highlighted the issue of Burmese refugees- Rohingya refugee- being hosted in Bangladesh for the last two decades and put forward some concrete proposals to address the issues in the First International Ministerial Conference on Refugees in the Organization of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) – the Muslim World- began in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan on May 12, according to a press release from the ministry.
“The proposals include the requirement of international dialogue and engagement with non-OIC countries; addressing the root causes of protracted refugee situation; and strengthening the principle of international burden-sharing — considering the shrinking global space for asylum and a growing trend of asylum fatigue.”
The Foregin Minister also mentioned that the refugee problem imposes disproportionately heavy burden on host countries, who generally belong to the under developed country category or least developed countries (LDCs) like Bangladesh.
The foreign minister underscored engaging the host countries in decision-making and gap analysis relating to refugee protection, and stressed that their financial and associated economic contributions should be accounted for in the “official” discourse on protection.
Urging the UNHCR to take the lead role, Dipu Moni opined that the OIC could be a political partner in that dialogue.
Foreign Minister Dipu Moni May 13, urged the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) António Guterres to resume repatriation process of the Burmese refugees in Bangladesh on the sidelines of the Organisation of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Ministerial Meeting at Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, the press released said.
But, the Guterres opined that there might be some differences in understanding between the UNHCR and the government of the countries concerned about different aspects of Rohingya refugee problem.
“To clarify the issues, the Bangladesh government may consider sending a team to Geneva or the UNHCR may send a team to Dhaka,” Guterres said.
Dipu Moni preferred a latter option and requested the UN refugee agency chief to adequately sensitize the UNHCR Dhaka office to take necessary measures to resume the repatriation process that has been stalled since 2005.
The two-day meeting is the first of its kind under the aegis of the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) where UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is one of the co-organizers according to a press release from the ministry.
Similarly, Department of International Relation of Chittagong University (CU) organized a two-day lectur session in collaboration with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) sub-office in Chittagong to give the students a practical knowledge about the Rohingya refugees and their miserable condition, Chittagong University (CU) on May 12, according to CU Department of International Relation’s statement.
Dirk Hebecker, head of UNHCR sub-office in Cox’s Bazaar, was the key lecturer on the first day of the programme and explained about the origins of the Rohingya refugees of Bangladesh, their problems and challenges.
Fahmida Karim, an official of UNHCR Dhaka office, and Faridul Alam, chairman of International Relation department of CU, were also present at the programme.

Hundreds of Rohingya asylum seekers who have staged a protest in New Delhi since April 9 have been urged by a UN official to go back to their places of residence in India without delay, with assurances that the government of India will soon issue them long-term visas.
According to the official from the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), the Rohingyas will also be granted access to education and health care like other refugees or asylum seekers in India.
After staging a sit-in protest outside the UNHCR office, then at an ancient monument in the Indian capital, the Rohingya were dispersed by Delhi police on Tuesday. The UNHCR said they should now return home and apply for long-term visas at their regional Foreign Registration Offices.
However, several of the Rohingya protesters claimed that the police pressured them to go back to their residences but abandoned them at Delhi railway station.
“After our meeting with the UNHCR, the police brought us to the railway station in buses and just dropped us here,” said a spokesman for the group. “Those who live nearby at Kashmiri Gate [in Delhi] can go home directly, but the rest of us don’t know what to do and have no money to buy tickets.”
Meanwhile, a case to determine the legal status of these Rohingya people will be heard at Delhi High Court on Wednesday.
According to The Indian Express, the court was to hear an application by a lawyer who requested an official order by the government to provide free food, water, toilet facilities and medical assistance to the group.
A week ago, the Rohingyas were forced to leave a site where they had pitched tents and protested outside the UNHCR’s office in an upscale New Delhi neighborhood.
Many then relocated their protest to an open area near Sultan Garhi, a protected monument in the Indian capital.
Last Sunday, the police ordered the “squatters” to move following complaints from locals and resident welfare associations. Meanwhile, many students from the nearby Jawaharlal Nehru University showed solidarity with the protesters by providing them food and water.
According to the Hindustan Times, New Delhi’s Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit said on Sunday that she has asked officials to discuss and find a solution to the Rohingya issue before May 16, and that she was confident a way would be found to relocate them soon.
The Rohingya people live in different areas across India, including Jammu, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan. They are unable to apply for refugee status with the UNHCR, which said it has around 1,800 Rohingyas registered as asylum seekers in India.
The UNHCR said it has issued each one an identity card to protect them from harassment, arbitrary arrest, detention and expulsion, and to prevent them from being forced back to a country where their lives or freedoms may be in danger. The UNHCR said this gives them the same protection as other refugees.

Myanmar may be gradually embracing political reform. But for 31-year-old Nasir Udin, returning to his country of origin is not an option – at least not yet.
Myanmar may be gradually embracing political reform. But for 31-year-old Nasir Udin, returning to his country of origin is not an option – at least not yet.
“I can only think of stepping foot in Myanmar once it becomes a democracy. We have suffered grave atrocities at the hands of our own people,” said Mr. Udin, who is a Rohingya, a Muslim minority in his native Myanmar.
Mr. Udin is one of around 2,500 Rohingya asylum seekers in India – many of them children and pregnant women – who were temporarily lodged in a makeshift camp set up in a patch of scrubland in the outskirts of New Delhi.
They gathered from around India in New Delhi last month to press the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees to recognize them as refugees in the hope this would guarantee them access to medical facilities and schools for their children.
The living conditions in the camp, which was set up last week, were dire: Many had little more than plastic sheets propped up with branches as shelter and complained they didn’t have medicines to treat those who fell ill.
Despite the victory of pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi in recent by-elections – a development that prompted the international community to rethink economic sanctions on the country – none of the asylum seekers interviewed in the camp expressed any interest in returning to Myanmar.
For the time being, their concerns are more local: they want a better life here in India.
“Government hospitals don’t want to treat us, schools don’t want to admit our children, nobody wants to employ us,” says Nazir Ahmed, a 51-year-old Rohingya asylum seeker who arrived in India three years ago and takes care of five daughters, his wife and his mother. Despite the hardship, he categorically dismissed the possibility of returning to his country of origin: “I will never ever go back,” he said, likening that possibility to “jumping into fire.”

A significant step to improve the welfare of Rohingya people in India was made on Tuesday afternoon, when they were promised long-term stay visas in India.
UNHCR’s chief of mission, Montserrat Feixas Vihe, said in a statement she was confident this “will greatly increase their protection and safety in India.”
As asylum seekers, healthcare and education are services they are already entitled to in India, according to UNHCR. However, many Rohingya – especially those who are based outside Delhi – said local authorities often do not recognize this right.
While some members of the Rohingya community are still pushing for refugee status, many were satisfied with the visa agreement and were willing to return to their places of residence elsewhere in India.
However, even as talks with U.N. officials were ongoing, on Tuesday police dismantled their temporary dwellings in Delhi and forced them to leave. Rohingya asylum seekers had been complaining against police treatment ever since they settled there. For days, police did not allow them to leave the area, saying this was to ensure their safety, since they worried local residents would turn against them.
What rights asylum seekers and refugees are entitled to is a gray area because India does not have a comprehensive policy on refugees. New Delhi is not a signatory to the U.N. convention on refugees, nor does it have its own legal framework. As a result, rights and privileges vary depending on the community.
Rohingya are a stateless people. They come from Myanmar’s coastal Rakhine state, which borders Bangladesh, and look South Asian. This has made their acceptance in the country historically difficult. Three decades ago, the government of Myanmar made it clear that Rohingyas, along with other ethnic minorities, did not qualify for citizenship, effectively denying them most rights.
Many have escaped human rights abuses by fleeing to neighboring countries, with around 30,000 of them currently living in refugee camps in Bangladesh alone, according to U.N. data. They started crossing over to India more recently, arriving in significant numbers in 2009.
Rohingya are just one of many Burmese groups that escaped the widespread repression of Myanmar’s military government. On top of the Rohingya asylum seekers, India currently hosts roughly 7,000 Burmese refugees. Most of them are ethnically Chin and settled in India’s northeast in the early 1990s, when there was a major exodus from Myanmar.
No Burmese refugees or asylum seekers in India – Rohingya, Chin or other – have turned to the U.N. to help them repatriate in recent months, according to UNHCR.

However, they are keeping an eye on political developments in their country of origin. “Refugees from Myanmar are following events in their country with great interest. It is too early to say what they feel— people are waiting and watching to see how developments unfold in the coming months,” says Nayana Bose, an officer at UNHCR in Delhi.
The recent Rohingya agitation in New Delhi comes as Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is preparing to travel to Naypyitaw later this month, a trip that will test how India plans to deal with a reforming Myanmar.
Foreign governments and rights groups have called on India to take a bigger role in promoting democratic change in the Southeast Asian country.
“I think because of India’s democracy, India stands in a strong position to help the people of Burma as they look at a way to navigate their way forward with political and economic reforms,” U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said last week, speaking at an event in Kolkata.
Activists have similarly urged India to engage in the country’s democratic process. The Burma Centre Delhi, an Indian non-profit organization, called on Mr. Singh to address ethnic-based discrimination during his trip there. They said New Delhi could play a significant role in helping restore “the civil and democratic rights of the Rohingya” and in helping safely repatriate refugees.
Addressing the issue of Burmese refugees would be a chance for New Delhi to show that it is committed to a regional policy that goes beyond looking for investment opportunities, in keeping with its much-hyped “Look East” policy.
A spokesman for the Prime Minister said the agenda for Mr. Singh’s three-day trip, which is set to start May 27, “has not yet been decided.”
Rohingya, who originally come from Myanmar's northern coastal regions, are a stateless people. Many fled to neighboring Bangladesh in the early 1990s and some eventually made their way to India. Pictured, Rohingya asylum seekers stood in a makeshift camp in New Delhi on Monday.

"Vaclav Havel said that politics is not the art of the possible. It is the art of imagining the impossible - and then making it happen. From Havel, to Mandela, to Aung San Suu Kyi, dissidents have practiced the art of the impossible. (FORMER U.S. PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH)
I am not against the suspension of sanctions as long as the people of the United States feel that this is the right thing to do at the moment. I do, I do advocate caution though. I sometimes feel that things, that people are too optimistic about the scene in Burma. You have to remember that the democratization process is not irreversible. I have said very openly that we can never look upon it as irreversible until such time as the military commits itself to democratization (inaudible) and efficiently." (DAW AUNG SAN SUU KYI)
