In our miniseries Cool Ideas for a Long, Hot Summer, we're working with Arizona State University's Global Futures Lab to highlight bold ideas about how to mitigate and adapt to climate change. On this episode, host Kimberly Quach is joined by ASU assistant professor Faheem Hussain to learn about how Rohingya refugees are using social technologies and what they can teach the rest of the world about communicating in disasters. Hussain is a researcher whose trajectory was changed when he visited a Rohingya refugee camp in Bangladesh. There, he learned how the community uses an innovative combination of online and offline technologies to create networks to share information.

A few weeks ago, the Indian government formally notified the rules implementing the controversial 2019 Citizenship Amendment Act, or CAA. The law provides persecuted religious minorities hailing from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan an expedited pathway to Indian citizenship, provided they belong to the Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jain, Parsi, or Sikh communities. Notably, the law does not provide such a pathway to those who belong to the Muslim faith.The notification of the CAA rules—on the eve of India's 2024 general election—has kicked off a fresh debate over the law, its implementing provisions, and the resulting implications for the future of secularism in India.To discuss all of this and more, Milan is joined on the show this week by legal scholar M. Mohsin Alam Bhat. Mohsin is a Lecturer in Law at Queen Mary University of London, where he specializes in constitutional law and human rights. Mohsin has written extensively about law and citizenship in India.Milan and Mohsin discuss the origins of the CAA, its constitutionality, and the fine print of the CAA rules. Plus, the two discuss the situation in Assam, that state's National Register of Citizens (NRC), and the prospects of an all-India NRC exercise.Episode notes:1. “What's Happening to India's Rohingya Refugees?

Rohingya remain the world's largest number of stateless people, with over one million driven out of Myanmar living in camps in Bangladesh. Synopsis: Every fourth Friday of the month, The Straits Times' US bureau chief Nirmal Ghosh presents an Asian perspective of the biggest global talking points with expert guests. Life for the over one million Rohingya in refugee camps in Bangladesh continues to become increasingly intolerable, with food rations down to 27 US cents a day, and little or no hope for a return to their homeland in Myanmar's Rakhine state. This is where they have, over the years, been driven out from, in successive waves of pogroms, which refer to an organised massacre of a particular ethnic group. In Rakhine state, life gets no better either. Earlier in August, at least 27 Rohingya drowned when their boat sank offshore earlier this month as they tried to make the perilous journey to Malaysia across treacherous open seas. In his 100th episode, host Nirmal Ghosh chats with his guests - Mr Johannes van der Klaauw - the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees' representative in Bangladesh, and Mr Richard Horsey, senior advisor on Myanmar at the International Crisis Group. Highlights (click/tap above): 1:40 Mr Van der Klaauw describes the ground situation in the Rohingya camps and what the international community needs to understand 8:35 Mr Horsey on hope and an extremely difficult policy challenge for the Rohingya, if Myanmar's Rakhine state is not even fixed in the first place itself 15:25 Status of moves to repatriate refugees back to Rakhine, or resettlement in a "third" country 20:40 Dangerous gambles by the Rohingya to reach other countries Produced by: Nirmal Ghosh (nirmal@sph.com.sg), Ernest Luis, Fa'izah Sani Edited by: Fa'izah Sani Follow Asian Insider with Nirmal Ghosh every fourth Friday of the month here: Channel: https://str.sg/JWa7 Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/JWa8 Google Podcasts: https://str.sg/wQsB Spotify: https://str.sg/JWaX Website: http://str.sg/stpodcasts Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg Follow Nirmal Ghosh on Twitter: https://str.sg/JD7r Read Nirmal Ghosh's articles: https://str.sg/JbxG Register for Asian Insider newsletter: https://str.sg/stnewsletters --- Discover more ST podcast channels: COE Watch: https://str.sg/iTtE In Your Opinion: https://str.sg/w7Qt Asian Insider: https://str.sg/JWa7 Health Check: https://str.sg/JWaN Green Pulse: https://str.sg/JWaf Your Money & Career: https://str.sg/wB2m ST Sports Talk: https://str.sg/JWRE #PopVultures: https://str.sg/JWad Music Lab: https://str.sg/w9TX Discover ST Podcasts: http://str.sg/stpodcasts --- Special edition series: The Unsolved Mysteries of South-east Asia (5 eps): https://str.sg/wuZ2 Invisible Asia (9 eps): https://str.sg/wuZn Stop Scams (10 eps): https://str.sg/wuZB Singapore's War On Covid (5 eps): https://str.sg/wuJa --- Follow our shows then, if you like short, practical podcasts! #STAsianInsiderSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Rohingya people have suffered decades of persecution in Myanmar, most recently in 2017 when the country's security forces launched a major crackdown on the minority group—causing more than a million Rohingya to flee the country. While the vast majority of Rohingya sought refuge in neighboring Bangladesh, India has been home to tens of thousands Rohingya refugees.A new report by The Azadi Project and Refugees International—A Shadow of Refuge: Rohingya Refugees in India—sheds light on the plight of Rohingya in India, drawing from field visits in Delhi and Hyderabad. The authors of this new report are Daniel Sullivan and Priyali Sur and they join Milan on the show this week to talk more about their report.The trio discuss the absence of an Indian law on refugees and asylum seekers, the Rohingya's living conditions in India, and the shrinking number of vocal advocates for their cause. Plus, the three discuss the foreign policy implications of the refugees and what role the United States might play.

In the past week, distressing reports have once again emerged of Rohingya refugees left stranded on a boat out at sea. Unfortunately in Southeast Asia, it's something that's happened again and again, often with countries in the region pushing the responsibility to each other, and in many cases with refugees - adults and children - dying at sea. To shed some light on what's happening now as well as the larger issue of how we address humanitarian crises such as this, we're joined by Lilianne Fan, Chair of the Asia Pacific Refugee Rights Network's Rohingya Working Group. Lilianne is also the co-founder and international director of the Geutanyoe Foundation which works with refugees and marginalised groups.Image Credit: Shutterstock

On 25th August 2017, the Myanmar military launched a deadly crackdown on Rohingya people, leading to an exodus of more than 700,000 Rohingya into Bangladesh. Today, it's reported that more than a million Rohingya are living in refugee camps across Cox's Bazar, known as the world's largest refugee camp. But five years later, have we done enough - or anything at all - to address the situation that refugees are facing and the humanitarian crisis brewing in Cox's Bazar? Paul McPhun, Director of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) regional South-East & East Asia Pacific Partnership, joins us to shed more light on this as well as the role that Myanmar's neighbours can and should play as Rohingya refugees remain unable to return home.

Human Rights Watch said Rohingya Muslims are still awaiting justice and protection of their rights five years after the Myanmar military began a sweeping campaign of massacres, rape, and arson in 2017. The anniversary comes after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ruled that The Gambia's legal case to hold Myanmar accountable over allegations of genocide against the Rohingya can go ahead at The Hague in the Netherlands. Rohingya activists say this is the first step in the fight for justice and accountability, but it could take years.

In an interview with Radio Islam, Nay San Lwin, the Rohingya activist blogger, shared that the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet's visit to Bangladesh was to tell the refugees that the situation in Myanmar is unstable. They should wait up until the conditions are stable and also inform the refugees and the Bangladesh authorities about the situation that is currently happening in Myanmar. Commenting on the repatriation of the Rohingya to Myanmar, Nay San Lwin said that the Bangladesh government should invite other countries to be involved in the process to assist in alleviating the weight and pressure. "I think they should involve other countries if they want the process to happen because china is not to be trusted," he said. Since the military takeover in Myanmar last year, the security has worsened, making it difficult for the Rohingya refugees to move from one place to another. He said that freedom of movement is restricted, and the refugees are not allowed to move from one camp to another. Nay San Lwin added that the international community should give the matter more attention and provide more humanitarian assistance, including access to education and healthcare.
The ethnic minority Rohingya Muslims suffer severe persecution in Myanmar. Following a deadly crackdown by the Burmese army in 2017, some 740,000 Rohingya fled to neighbouring Bangladesh, where they were settled in the southern town of Cox's Bazar. Five years on, the town is home to the world's largest and most dangerous refugee camp, with frequent floods, fires and gang wars. In December 2020, the Bangladeshi government decided to relocate some of the Rohingya refugees to a remote island in the Bay of Bengal. Our reporters Alban Alvarez and Mathilde Cusin managed to gain access to it.
UN human rights experts that https://www.reuters.com/article/us-myanmar-rohingya-facebook/u-n-investigators-cite-facebook-role-in-myanmar-crisis-idUSKCN1GO2PN (chronicled) Facebook's https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/15/technology/myanmar-facebook-genocide.html (role) in spreading hate speech in Myanmar concluded that it played a “determining role” in the genocide against the Rohingya people. Facebook's own https://www.theverge.com/2018/11/6/18068104/facebook-business-social-responsibility-myanmar-report (investigation) into the situation also found fault with the company's practices, and made various recommendations for how it should develop a human rights strategy to protect against such things from happening again. Today, we're going to hear from a refugee from the violence, who is with other Rohingya refugees in a camp in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, as well as three human rights advocates. And we'll learn about another complaint filed by sixteen Rohingya youth to Ireland's Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the OECD, that argues that Facebook violated the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises by allowing its platform to be used to incite violence against them and their community. The remedy sought by these refugees is for Facebook to divest from a portion of its 2017 profits and provide remediation for their community in the form of educational activities and facilities in Cox's Bazar. Please note that the connection to Cox's Bazar was not perfect- if you have any trouble making out a word here or there, you can refer to the transcript at the Tech Policy Press website.

Facebook is facing a US $150 billion lawsuit from Rohingya refugees, who claim the social media giant allowed hate speech to appear on its platform. They say the language contributed to the killing of at least 10,000 Muslims in Myanmar.
Why Facebook is facing a US$150 billion lawsuit from Rohingya refugees; and a discussion on how Catholic social teaching could actually improve politics.
Rohingya refugees from Myanmar are suing Meta Platforms Inc, formerly known as Facebook, for $150 billion US over allegations that the social media company did not take action against hate speech that contributed to violence against them. We discuss the case with Tun Khin, a Rohingya activist and the president of the Burmese Rohingya Organisation in the U.K.; Awista Ayazi, a lawyer working on the lawsuit against Facebook by Rohingya refugees; and Katie Harbath, a former Facebook public policy director and the founder and current CEO of Anchor Change.
Rohingya refugees are suing the owners of Facebook, Meta arguing the company facilitated the spread of hate speech which fuelled a campaign of ethnic violence against them. An estimated 10,000 Muslim Rohingya were killed during a military crackdown in Myanmar in 2017, and more than one million now live in refugee camps in Bangladesh.

Existence is resistance: a quarter of a million Rohingya refugees live in Malaysia with no legal rights or protections
One of the goals of the Great Commission Update podcast is to inform you about the most pressing issues in the world that you'll never hear in the news. Today we are discussing the humanitarian crisis caused by 1 million Rohingya refugees fleeing horror in Myanmar into the neighboring country of Bangladesh. Within 2 short years, Cox's Bazar (a community in Bangladesh) became the world's largest refugee camp. The conditions are dreadful from a sanitation and cleanliness perspective. Imagine one stench filled latrine shared by hundreds of families?! Now imagine one million people that are 0.01% Christian?! Rusty and Greg are talking about how World Mission is physically helping the Rohingya while also distributing their solar-powered audio bible in their language. www.worldmission.cc

For this latest edition of our UN News podcast, The Lid Is On, we'll take you inside the biggest and fastest exodus of refugees since the Rwanda genocide of 1994. More than 600,000 Rohingya - a Muslim minority based in northern Myanmar for generations, who've been denied citizenship – have fled for their lives across the border. We asked the UN humanitarian affairs office, OCHA, to put us in touch with some of the aid workers who have been dealing with the crisis since the beginning. Music credit: Ketsa: Where the river run.
