Our Ref: ARNA/2018/059 (Date: 29 Sept 2018)
We, ARNA would like to welcome the leaders, countries, organizations around the world that recognizing the treatment of Rohingya as genocide, endorsement of UN Fact-finding Mission in Myanmar, sanctions against military generals and calling to support referral to ICC.
As we aware, the Rohingya people have been completely destroyed thru various attacks from 8 June 2012 that have killed over 60,000 innocent Rohingyas, forcibly pushed out of about 90% of total Rohingya population and burnt down more than 400 villages across 13 different townships of Arakan (Rakhine) state. Some stories of brutalities and horror scenes have been documented by UN Fact-finding Mission and a research report- "Forced Migration of Rohingya".
The attests of condition improvement on the ground, must start with remaining about 500,000 Rohingyas and Kamans are now over six years ending up in ghetto camps follow by frequent attacks, deadly starvation in Arakan (Rakhine) state.
Despite Suu Kyi government has signed Repatriation Deal and MoU, her government has taken no concrete step to improve human rights situation on the ground and safe return of Rohingya refugees with guarantee of relocation at origin villages, citizenship rights and lifting all forms of restrictions and oppressions.
The military powered Suu Kyi government's authoritarian judiciary, defiance, brutalities, blockages and restrictions against Rohingya and other muslims remain widely active. The extended threats of nationalists, extremists monks, gangs and thugs and creation of muslim free-zones across Arakan (Rakhine) state and central Burma (Myanmar) still exist.
Because of the main perpetrator are top military generals and the government themselves, they will never let to ensure capable of leading to criminal prosecution of all of those responsible and/or address the root causes to end the cycle of violence and attacks against minorities.
For decades, the rejection of Rohingya is a common politic in Myanmar by now jointly with the authorities, monks, nationalists and majority public.
It is therefore relocation of these a million of Rohingya, recognition of their status, normalization of the situation on the ground, therefore much rely on internationally intervention.
Prosecution of Myanmar criminal military generals is in deed a vital step when the Myanmar military generals and rulers have never been prosecuted for their heinous crimes and brutalities past and present against minorities.
