By Jaclyn SharmeleeThe Rohingya community is known as the most discriminatedagainst people in the world, according to the United Nations, with more than 200,000 Rohingyas taking refuge in Malaysia. Walk the Talk Forum; Rohingya at peril, From Home to Malaysia, organised by the Catholic Action Network (CAN), Malaysia, aimed to highlight the plight of the Rohingya community in Malaysia. This has caused untoward fear among the Rohingya community and has affected their opportunities to earn a livelihood. The forum ended with a call by the speakers for Malaysians to remember that refugees are humans, with wants, needs, dreams and aspirations.
