Anwar: Dialogue with Myanmar offers best hope for Rohingya solution

PUTRAJAYA, Oct 28 — Malaysia has opted for diplomacy in dealing with the refugee issue involving Myanmar, despite facing international criticism over the government’s approach to resolving the matter, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said.

He said the approach was necessary to seek a solution after years of criticism and condemnation directed at Myanmar had failed to bring about any significant change in the country’s policies.

“When I invited Myanmar President (Min Aung Hlaing), what was the objective? In my two previous meetings with him, I urged him to moderate his stance. We have been expressing anger and criticising them for 20 or 30 years, but it has had no effect. There has been no change in policy.

“The people in Rakhine, the Rohingya, continue to suffer. Some 200,000 have fled here, placing a burden on us as well. The people, including the Malay community, are becoming increasingly upset over the situation

Anwar was speaking at the ‘Majlis Ilmu Madani’ programme at Kompleks Seri Perdana here today, featuring prominent Indonesian preacher Ustaz Dr Abdul Somad Batubara as a guest.

He was explaining Malaysia’s position on refugees from Myanmar, including the Rohingya, and efforts to facilitate their return to their country of origin. — Bernama

布城，10月28日讯——马来西亚首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣表示，尽管马来西亚政府在处理涉及缅甸的难民问题上采取的方式受到国际社会的批评，但马来西亚仍然选择通过外交手段来解决这一问题。

他表示，多年来针对缅甸的批评和谴责未能给该国政策带来任何重大改变，因此有必要采取这种方式寻求解决方案。

“我邀请缅甸总统（敏昂莱）的目的是什么？在我之前与他两次会面中，我都敦促他缓和立场。我们表达愤怒和批评他们已经二三十年了，但没有任何效果。他们的政策没有任何改变。”

“若开邦的罗兴亚人仍在遭受苦难。约有20万人逃亡至此，也给我们带来了沉重的负担。包括马来族在内的民众对目前的局势越来越感到不满。”
