“US House of Representative has once again resolved to put Burma on notice. We hope @senatemajldr will finally allow a vote on Senate bill 1186 and @SecPompeo will issue a genocide determination,” said Abdul @MalikMujahid, Chair of Burma Task Force on the passage of HR 3190.

When education is denied to children not because they lack resources, but because they are refugees, that amounts to abuse of children.
Int'l community and the @UNHCR_BGD @Refugees @UNinBangladesh @RapporteurUn must bring an end to this abuse.

[Padem carroll @PACBurmaRights]

@stand_ie @UNESCO Unacceptable that governments deny children access to education. In #Bangladesh, hundreds of thousands of Rohingya #refugee children are denied even volunteer run schools. https://t.co/AfoKcBvRkn @BurmaTaskUSA @USEmbassyBurma #EducationDay

[Burma Task Force @BurmaTaskForce]

India's Hindutva leaders routinely use unrelated videos, photos, & messages to incite suspicion & hatred against Rohingya on social media. The barrage of fake news has further aggravated the misery of the persecuted Rohingyas seeking refugee in India.

India gov spreading racist disinformation against #Rohingya refugees, claiming threat national security. But the National Crime Records Bureau report shows this is false. India gov must stop making excuses and respect the right to asylum from persecution! https://t.co/xVw9L3rlH3

The International community is watching #Myanmar brought to its knees by a brutal #Military regime with a history of #Genocide. The brutal attacks by #MyanmarMilitaryTerrorists must be stopped. We appeal for the protection of lives & for the protection of democracy in Myanmar.

[Justice For Myanmar @JusticeMyanmar]

#Myanmar military, in total disregard for humanity, cont. to indiscriminately kill civilians, burn villages, & displace vulnerable ppl. Their decades-old tactics of terror have recently struck Magway. Biz & govs: STOP funding their heinous crimes! https://t.co/DJdtQLrrmQ

The @UN General Assembly resolution affirms that "Govts have the primary responsibility to provide protection & ensure inclusive & equitable quality #education at all levels to all learners, especially those in vulnerable situations".

A Military regime that perpetrated genocide against Rohingya muslims in Rakhine, and staged a coup to destabilize Myanmar, is allowed to make money on Facebook.
Facebook's policy is certainly appeasing dictators.

These are the photos from #August2017 while I was trying to escape from open killing by MM military and I got several wounds on my body. I was seeing how my village and houses were burning. How I can forget that days?

The survivors of the 2017 genocide struggle to accept the fact that many powerful nations today even fail to acknowledge the Rohingya genocide. The silence prolongs injustice.
