Thank you, Mr. David.
Let me continue. Rohingyas are facing problems, and as of today they are denial of full-fledged citizenship, treatment of Rohingyas as if foreigners, uncertainty of citizenship processing, denial of Rohingya ethnicity, accusation as illegal immigrants, no freedom of movement, lack of access to higher education, uncertain life at IDP camps, and restriction of marriage.
The worst thing is the restriction of freedom of movement within our own country. Every town in Rakhine State for Rohingyas is like an open prison.
Therefore, on behalf of the Rohingya in Myanmar, I would like to request the Parliament of Canada and the Government of Canada, through the chair of this committee, to urge or press Myanmar State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi and Myanmar military commander-in-chief Min Aung Hlaing to implement the following immediately.
Here are my recommendations:
Stop all abuses against the Rohingya in Rakhine State.
Make a road map to deal with the Rohingya crisis.
Allow freedom of movement.
Allow access to higher education and build enough primary schools.
Resettle Rohingya IDPs to houses on their original lands.
Dismantle the partition fence between Rakhine and the Rohingya community in Sittwe, Rakhine State.
Recognize Rohingya ethnicity officially.
Grant or restore full-fledged citizenship and political rights to Rohingya.
Include and invite Rohingya representatives to the forthcoming 21st century pinlon conference of national reconciliation.
Mr. Chairman, let me stop my presentation here and thank you so much for your time. Also, thank you, Mr. David.
