パキスタン出身のノーベル平和賞受賞者、マララ・ユスフザイさんが、ミャンマーのイスラム系少数民族でイスラム教徒のロヒンギャの迫害を止めるよう、同国の首脳や当局に向けて呼びかけている。
マララさんは声明で「ロヒンギャは、何世代にも渡り生まれ育ってきた国で市民権を得るに値します。平等の権利と機会を与えられる資格があります」と述べた。「私たちと同じように、尊厳と敬意を持って扱われるべきです」
市民権を奪われ、暴力と差別にさらされてきたロヒンギャがここ数カ月、ミャンマーから脱出している。船で逃亡後、近隣諸国の海岸沖で何千人もの移住者が救助されている。
ミャンマーは、仏教徒が大多数を占める。同国は、ロヒンギャが迫害されていることを否定している。しかし、アムネスティ・インターナショナルやヒューマン・ライツ・ウォッチなど、複数の国際人権グループがロヒンギャの迫害を非難している。国連難民高等弁務官事務所(UNHCR)は、ロヒンギャを世界で最も迫害されている少数民族の1つと認定している。
マララさんは、教育と少女の権利の活動家だ。2012年、その進歩的な考えからタリバンに銃撃されたが命をとりとめ、世界の女の子たちが教育を受けられるように支援する「マララ基金」を共同設立した。マララ基金は現在、パキスタン、ケニア、シリア、ナイジェリアの少女たちを支援している。マララさんは、ヨルダンやレバノンにいるシリア難民に教育を保証するための活動をする中で、難民たちの苦しい状況に関心を持った。
「今日、そして、これからもずっと、私はロヒンギャを応援します」 マララさんは声明の中でこう述べた。「そして、世界中の人々にもロヒンギャへの応援を求めます」

Rohingya Refugees Face Health Crisis As Myanmar Cuts Off Aid(01 of26)
SITTWE, BURMA - MAY 07: A baby, only several hours old, lays on a bed of boards in the Dar Paing Clinic inside the Dar Paing refugee camp on the outskirts of Sittwe on May 7, 2014 in Sittwe, Burma. 150,000 Rohingya IDP (internally displaced people) are currently imprisoned in refugee camps outside of Sittwe in Rakhine State in Western Myanmar. Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), the primary supplier of medical care within the camps, was banned in March by the Myanmar government. Follow up attacks by Buddhist mobs on the homes of aid workers in Sittwe, put an end to NGO operations in the camps. Though some NGOs are beginning to resume work, MSF remains banned and little to no healthcare is being provided to most Rohingya IDPs. One Rohingya doctor is servicing 150,000 refugees with limited medication. Several Rakhine volunteer doctors sporadically enter the camps for two hours a day. Births are the most complicated procedures successfully carried out in the camps, requests to visit Yangon or Sittwe hospitals for life threatening situations require lengthy applications and are routinely denied. Malnutrition and diarrhea are the most widespread issues, but more serious diseases like tuberculosis are going untreated and could lead to the rise of drug resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB).

Follow up attacks by Buddhist mobs on the homes of aid workers in Sittwe put an end to NGO operations in the camps. Though some NGOs are beginning to resume work, MSF remains banned, and little to no healthcare is being provided to most Rohingya IDPs. One Rohingya doctor is servicing 150,000 refugees with limited medication. Several Rakhine volunteer doctors sporadically enter the camps for two hours a day. Births are the most complicated procedures successfully carried out in the camps, requests to visit Yangon or Sittwe hospitals for life threatening situations require lengthy applications and are routinely denied. Malnutrition and diarrhea are the most widespread issues, but more serious diseases like tuberculosis are going untreated and could lead to the rise of drug resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB).
