KUALA LUMPUR: Myanmar must end the ongoing genocide against the Rohingya community before any discussions can be held on the repatriation of refugees seeking shelter in other countries. This was, he said, especially since there was no effort to stop the violence against the community in Myanmar. “We are refugees, so it should be the UN which discusses our repatriation... it (should) not be under the jurisdiction of (the Myanmar and Bangladesh) governments. “This is to ensure the expeditious, safe and voluntary return of Rohingya refugees from Bangladesh to Myanmar,” he said. Reezal said Malaysia remained committed to alleviating the plight of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.
