Plight of the Rohingya Muslims

Bangladesh bans foreign charities helping Rohingya


DHAKA: Bangladesh has ordered three international charities to stop providing aid to Rohingya refugees who cross the border to flee persecution and violence in Myanmar, an official said Thursday.

France’s Doctors without Borders (MSF) and Action Against Hunger (ACF) as well as Britain’s Muslim Aid UK have been told to suspend their services in the Cox’s Bazaar district bordering Myanmar, local administrator Joynul Bari said.

“The charities have been providing aid to tens of thousands of undocumented Rohingya refugees illegally. We asked them to stop all their projects in Cox’s Bazaar following directive from the NGO Affairs Bureau,” he told AFP.

To all those who were arguing that Bangladesh does indeed have its own problems, hence the ‘justification’ behind their PM’s remarks, I’d like to hear what the excuse for this despicable act is, since the aid agencies are providing the relief and support so it has no impact on the resources of Bangladesh.
