MERHROM URGENTLY PRESS STATEMENT
17 June 2018
Myanmar Ethnic Rohingya Human Rights Organization Malaysia (MERHROM) & Ketua Rohingya Malaysia MRM welcome the move by the Malaysian government to work with Turkish government to help refugees. We thank both governments for their continuous support for Rohingya refugees in Malaysia, Cox’s Bazar and inside Myanmar. We truly appreciate the effort of both countries to support refugees.
Although some refugees came to Malaysia due to economic reason but Rohingya left our country due to continuous persecution by Myanmar government. The Rohingya faced Slow Burning Genocide in Myanmar for the past 7 decades. Now Rohingya is facing the last phase of Genocide.
We urge the World Leaders to come together to Stop Rohingya Genocide before all Rohingya disappear from Myanmar. We must learn from Rwanda Genocide. Delay action caused thousands of innocent people died. We must not allowed another Genocide to continue in this century. Rwanda Genocide is the worst in the world history but Rohingya Genocide is even worst.
We hope there is still future for our generation especially in this month of Syawal. We urge the World Leaders to support the initiative to refer Myanmar to the International Criminal Court. The Myanmar government and the military officials must be held accountable for committing Genocide against Rohingya.
Thank you,
Signed,
Zafar Ahmad Abdul Ghani.

Dear Chief Editors,
PRESS STATEMENT
Myanmar Ethnic Rohingya Human Rights Organization Malaysia (MERHROM) welcomes the move by the Malaysian Government to establish Royal Comission of Inquiry to investigate Human Trafficking case in Wang Kelian, Perlis. It is a significant move by the new government in order to address the issues of Human Trafficking not only in Malaysia but in the region especially.
We hope this move will bring justice to them who lost their lives in order to survive from Genocide back home. Though the public at large do not know about the existing of the Trafficking camp in Wang Kelian, it was not a secret to the most Rohingya who fled our country due to Genocide. They witness everything in the Trafficking camp. The torture, the shooting, the cry of women and chidren, sickness, hunger, weakness, hopeless, greediness and the death. It was a nightmare that anyone cannot imagine. They have to go through all this in order to survive. However for some of them, they die in the battle.
We really hope the establishment of the Royal Commission of Inquiry will bring justice to them and their families. We hope no longer similar cases happen anywhere in this world. We understand that the fight against Human Trafficking cannot be done alone as it involved other countries. Therefore the significant interventions by the affected countries are crucial to combat Human Trafficking.
One of the reasons that contribute to Human Trafficking is Genocide. Therefore we really need the support from the other countries to Stop Rohingya Genocide. We need the voice of the World Leaders to be our voice. We would like to thank the Malaysian government for voicing out the Plights of Rohingya at local and International level. We hope the Malaysian Government under the Leadership of Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad will continue to put pressure at the International Level in order to stop Rohingya Genocide.
We love our country. We want to return home. However we cannot return when the Genocide is still ongoing. The failure to stop Genocide is the failure to stop Human Trafficking. Therefore, we appeal to the government to protect and support the victim of human trafficking.
Thank you.
Signed,
Zafar Ahmad Bin Abdul Ghani
