SAIRI Report of Rohingya Children is alarming
Hundreds of Thousands
of ‘Rohingya Children’
at High Risk of Infantile- Mortality, Enslavement and Multiple
Disabilities—Coercive Oppressions and Corpus Atrocities Bear the Hallmarks of Hard ‘Genocidal Clamp-down’ —1st Situation Report on ‘Rohingya Children Crisis’, by SAIRI Initiative.
The International Community, UN and E.U.-U.S.
Hierarchies Urged to Take a ‘Moral Stand’ amidst
the Worsening Situation—SAIRI Post-doc Multiversity for the UN-MDGs Studies!
According to the U.N. data and the statistical annals of other dependable sources,
Myanmar’s ethnic minority ‘Rohingya’ constitutes some 1.3 million of the populace
of the western Rakhine state of Burma.
There they live in an extremely ‘oppressed state’ and are described by the UN and the global
human rights watch-out
sentinels as—“the most persecuted, beleaguered and oppressed community on the face of earth”.
The U.N. Special Rapporteur on ‘Human Rights
in Myanmar’, Yanghee
Lee precisely summed- up what she saw last year during her 10-day visit to Rakhine
state,” The situation is deplorable..!”,she stated.
And now, this ‘beleaguered and oppressed’ minority
of ‘deplorable condition’, is passing through a perpetually worsening
‘ongoing crisis’ of its own nature.
“In the wake of the dreadful, harrowing outrages committed by riot groups in the Rakhine state, thousands of Rohingya children, are extremely prone
to infantile mortality, whilst others highly vulnerable to physical and mental disabilities, as well as at starkly
potential peril-menaces of enslavement”, states the first situation report on the ‘Rohingya Children
Crisis’ by SAIRI Post- doc Multiversity for the United
Nations MDGs studies.
The Desolate State of Coercive Oppression:
A
‘three-fringed state of detention’ has been constituted by: 1) the state-managed detention
in so- called custodial
campsites; 2) the trafficker-run hostage
camps; and 3) prison sites contrived and owned
by smugglers. Tens of thousands of families have been restrained in this cramped,
three- fringed state of confinement where, besides women and the elderly, it is the children who are especially
vulnerable to enslavement, with undescribed numbers
already having been sold on, notifies the report, which focuses on the children
trapped in this emergency situation.
The Plea:
The testimonial document of SAIRI, now calls on the UN, interregional hierarchies and the global community to take a ‘moral stand’ by mounting
an urgent response
to address the most ‘vulnerable hour’
of this humanitarian emergency.
The Impeded Set-back:
Probing the Actual
State of Affairs
and Concealment of Data-records
As per the absence, or in certain
instances the inaccessibility to non-figurative reliable
census, no exact child population figures
are available in case of Rohingyas.
It is estimated
that well-over 178,000
children belong to the Rohingya
minority.
Due to concealed data and obscured
information, it is difficult to give precise
extents of disease likelihoods and life-threatening odds otherwise, among
the children exiled
and expatriated at large.
It remains striking as well as surprising here that neither
of the international rights groups,
nor of the UN agencies including UNICEF, WHO or UNHCR seem to be in position
to figure out the exact numbers of the children
displaced or those detained in campsites and those at higher
degrees of vulnerabilities involving severe
health problems or even to certain extent,
their existence too.
The only way remained
left for an investigator is to integrate the inferential approximations and prognostication appraisals based upon the deductive-impost estimations and the cross-referential considerations.
However, by engaging
with and employing
the possible means,
describes the report:
“After a careful analysis
and thorough synthesis of the cross-referential data-statistics obtained
from reliable sources, SAIRI’s epidemiological experts find that,
the children of these so-called refugees camps are having
acute malnutrition rates well-crossing 30 % and hitting 35%, which is far
beyond of 15%—the
emergency level set by the World Health
Organization”.
“The European
Community Humanitarian Office,
even years ago reported that the area had acute malnutrition rates hitting 23 percent, which was still beyond that of the emergency level declared
by WHO”, relates further SAIRI report.

The Desperate Circumstances:
Rohingya people
are effectively ‘held confined’ in a ‘state of statelessness’, and hence, are deprived of all kinds of basic civil rights
including emergency medical
relief, the necessary
provisions of food and water,
and other humanitarian aids. The situation
escalates and surges
to multiplicative factors when it comes to children,
the labouring women or in case of disability.
UNICEF describes the situation of chronic and acute mal-nutrition in the Rakhine
state, where the Rohingyas are largely inhabited:
Children living in Rakhine
are more likely
to suffer from chronic malnutrition, more likely to be malnourished than the average
Myanmar child, with almost ‘50 per cent of children
being stunted’.
They are less likely
to attend primary
school and less likely to access adequate
water and sanitation facilities than children living
in other parts
of the Union. According to a survey undertaken in 2010, only 12 per cent of children are likely to be born in a health care facility,
compared to the national average
of 36 per cent.
An estimated
number of 13,000
to 20,000 children, are confined into the isolated
squalid camps in Rakhine,
where, they are sub-humanely dealt with like ‘farm animals’.
Not only are people
being denied access
to public services
but they are ‘effectively’ prevented from leaving the area to seek emergency medical
aid, even in the case of women in labour,
and children.
In an article describing the Ohn Taw Gyi camp outside Sittwe,
wrote Esther Htusan
from Japan, “Conditions in the camps,
and elsewhere in Rakhine, went from bad to worse after the government expelled
their main health
lifeline, the Nobel-prize winning Doctors Without Borders. A month later,
other humanitarian groups
were temporarily evacuated after extremist stormed their residences and offices”.
http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2014/08/11/asia-pacific/social-issues-asia-pacific/rohingya- children-slowly-starving-myanmar-camps/#.Vauz6bXa2Zh
The food rations
the pregnant and lactating women get in camps is very little,
and sometimes they even don’t get any at all.
“The first
two years of a child’s
life, when the brain and body are developing, are critical for physical and mental development. Without adequate nutrition, little babies are prone to stunting,
a condition that would be shaping the rest of their lives.
As reaching adulthood, they are weaker, prone to illnesses and have limited
cognitive capacity”.
In these camps,
the children can be seen everywhere with bloated eyes, tiny arms and legs, and
with a face and skin that tightly
clings to the bones.
The poor victimized women in the camps, after having lost their husbands, and seen their
lives ruined, are desperate to save their children, marked
further Htusan.
Quite interestingly as well as appallingly, in spite of all what is happening
to the poor destitute children,
Burma kept on insisting UNICEF officials to ‘apologize’ for using the word Rohingya during a UNICEF’s official
briefing in Rakhine,
which ‘they did’ under duress.
Rupturing and abolishing of the ‘Convention on the Rights
of the Child’ on the sale of children,
child prostitution and child pornography holds lesser importance than the use of word ‘Rohingya’!
It remains also strangely
worth noting here that many of the media correspondents and journalists, along with the rights groups’ reporters, are forbidden from entering the victims’ site. In
some incidents, numerous
media correspondents and investigators have been forced
to hand over their cameras and memory cards
with a cautionary note that “they would not try to go to
these sites again”.

Enormities and Extents of Enslavement:
Some 15,000 to 18,000
younger as well as older
children have been resorting to fleeing off Myanmar through the Bay of Bengal
in recent months.
These flee-offs often take place on over- crowded rickety boats that end up adrift and stranded in the Andaman
Sea. There are many
recorded incidents of enslavement, with new research
revealing the likelihood that tens of hundreds more children either prone to being enslaved
or have already been sold as slaves,
after having been held hostage and tortured in secret jungle
precincts and at other hostage
sites.
“The boys are sold for forced-labour and the girls
into ‘forced-prostitution’ as sex slaves”, endorse well-informed sources from in and out of the zone-areas.
The situation, reached the extents
that, “The smuggling of Rohingya has become a significant industry along Thailand's Andaman coast. It's now said to be more profitable and less dangerous than selling drugs”, asserted
Alan Morison and Premkamon Ketsara,
since in their reportage published
in Phuketwan, Thailand, on the issue
Another 2013’s
report description by Chutima Sidasathian and Alan Morison,
published in Phuketwan, Thailand, reveals, “Captive Rohingya
are being smuggled
out of Thailand in secret in sales deals negotiated between human traffickers and Immigration officials, Phuketwan has
been told by well-informed sources”. “Conversations by mobile
telephone have also confirmed
that traffickers are already offering
people for sale at 65,000 baht each”,
exposed further the reportage.
After being sold, the girls are brought to brothels, where they are beaten, degraded,
tortured and forced into submission for sex activity. Deprivation of food, water and rest are the instruments that are employed for this forced sexual submission. In addition to these instruments, some sex- exploiters introduce
‘drug use or addiction’ for the purpose
of gaining an extra control
over them and to take them under more of their command.
Adding to the immediate impacts like psychological trauma, an increased
loss in ‘personhood’ feelings and a severe damage to an ‘affirmativeness of self’ are among the long-term dejection- bearings, in such victims.
Moreover, besides
the sex-slavery trade
by the smugglers, it has been noted repetitively,
evidently, that, the Burmese army is manifestly involved in trapping
the girls into military camps and then forcibly making
them ‘sex role-preys’.
Eyewitness ‘testimony evidences’ have been obtained that from International Labour Organization (ILO), that strongly imply that Burmese
army is imprisoning Rohingya women and using them as sex slaves in a military
camp situated a few kilometers from the town of Sittwe.
The Circumstantial Background:
In the wake of dreadful inter-ethnic violence, sparked by decades-long communal
hatred that was left
to simmer, and eventually re-igniting in 2012, an outrageous wave of mass atrocities sparked and engulfed the entire western Rakhine
state of Burma, where a major populace
of the 1.3 million Rohingya are inhabited. A wave of hate-speech incited
the riot groups to set fire not only
the homes, shops and yards,
but to complete towns, and even in certain instances, entire villages of Rohingyas
were reportedly set-fired
and burned to the ground.
The abjuration and contempt of basic human rights across the state has transversely and diagonally well-reached all of the possible extents
of a ‘genocidal ethnic annihilation’, that;
inhumane massacres, sexual assaults, systematic use of rape, street
riots, urban brawling, merciless blood-butcheries, arbitrary arrests (probably culminating in unlawful
killings), tedious domestic violence, looting of shops as well as homes, sequential kidnapping, forced labour, and mind-numbing street barbarisms are now well-documented in the U.N. data-records and the statistic-annals
of other rights groups and
dependable sources including Human Rights Watch (HRW), Amnesty International, Simon-‐Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide, Médecins Sans Frontières, U.S. Refugees International, and the BROUK.
Academically viewed,
the circumstances in totality, bear,
from an end to end all of the major hallmarks of a complete
‘De-humanizing Genocidal Ethnic Clamp-down’, endorses
SAIRI in under the referential-codes, principles indicator mark-frames laid out by the UN.
www.un.org/…tgenocide/adviser/pdf/osapg_analysis...
The Statistical Risk Assessments (S.R.A.)
carried out by the Early Warning Project,
Washington, that closely works with the Dickey Center
for International Understanding based at Dartmouth College, clearly reflects that Burma (Myanmar) lands starkly at the multiplicative highest of the global ranking,
through a combination of important predictors that anticipate the onset of state-led mass killing in a year or so, by employing
a set of statistical models,
which, methodologically entail three different perspectives while hedging against
the biases of any one of them.
Logically and consequentially, in result of being tough-surrounded by an ‘ongoing
and ever- worsening state
of affairs’ all around, after getting their
homes burned down and heads
and
body-parts smashed
in streets by state-backed marauding gangs and venomously xenophobic riot groups, an adverse
state of dispersion and scattering started
to take place
parting thousands of families smattered around. People vied to avail every least chance of escaping
from the ‘genocidal
clampdown’.
Finding themselves caught in a ‘can’t-live-can’t-leave’ situation, many feel they are left with no option other than to risk their lives in perilous exodus,
ignorant of whether
they would end up as an ‘object of prey’ for the traffickers or a ‘subject of collateral damage
onslaught’ for the naval security forces.
The people of this long-suffering oppressed minority, finally,
have begun to flee in haphazard
way, to end with.
More often than not, the frenzy
situation take-offs and the haphazard
nature of fleeing-off comes up with randomized hit-or-miss instances. Here too, the haphazard fleeing
is leaving many children separated from their
parents and desperately alienated from everything that is familiar
to them or they are acquainted with.
“Among this long-suffering minority
and destitute populace
there are disable
children, those who have
lost their parents
or been detached
from their siblings
or relatives,” notes the SAIRI’s
P.I. in the report.
Ireland’s eminent analyst, researcher and human-rights defender
Mary Lawlor marks in her
report on Rohingya’s ongoing persecution issue:
“The world is aghast
at the fact that up to 8000 members of the Rohingya
people of Myanmar have ended up adrift
in leaky overcrowded boats having to fight for food and being forced
to drink their own urine.
https://prachatai.org/english/node/5086
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/myanmar-muslim-migrants-abandoned-at-sea- drinking-their-own-urine-to-survive-after-thailand-refuses-boat-entry-10249854.html
They have been shipped
from port to port while the governments of Thailand, Malaysia
and Bangladesh argue over who is responsible for them and the government of Myanmar acts as if the
problem is nothing
to do with it.
The real scandal is that almost 1 million
people can be denied their right to citizenship in Myanmar and held in what are effectively prison camps under armed guard…….The roads in and out of the camps are blocked by armed guards and the Rohingya cannot leave the area even to
seek medical help for women going into labour”, asserts Mary Lawlor, the Berlin’s human- rights defender.
Global Community’s Moral Outlook:
Esther Htusan noted and mentioned it in a very realistic
way:
“Despite occasional expressions of concern, the U.S., Britain
and others in the international community have largely
stood by as conditions for the Rohingya
deteriorated”.
“Some ambassadors and donor countries say privately that coming down too hard on the new,
nominally civilian government will undermine efforts
to implement sweeping
reforms and note there has already been a dramatic
backslide. Others don’t want to jeopardize much-needed multibillion dollar
development projects in the country.
But their hesitancy
to act has emboldened Burma extremists, now dictating the terms of aid
distribution in Rakhine”.
The ‘Fact-In-Existence’ and ‘Need-of-the-Hour’:
Dr. Maung Zarni, a Burmese analytical expert and research
fellow at London School of Economics, describes the situation as ‘Neo-Nazism’ being demonstrated by hatemongers. He has
explicitly named the manifestations as ‘Hitlerian Tactics’, which are being administered to ‘purify’ the country by getting rid of the Rohingyas, according to Dr. Maung.
Migrant Rohingyas and the ethnically Burmese Rohingyas—all of them are considered leeches in our society at the same pattern as during the 3rd Reich when Nazism was taking its roots.
“There is a parallel between
what we saw in Nazi Germany and what we are seeing
today in Burma”, says Dr. Maung quite cautiously.
The entire race of Rohingyas would be massacred
if the world doesn’t respond,
believes Maung in conjunction with the opinion
of many other experts.
Dell Cameron also conveyed
it quite sensibly,
“Without a doubt,
Rohingyas are a persecuted
population in a situation which deserves a higher degree
of attention from the international community”.
“What's happening in Burma is an abomination, and the world has turned
a blind eye. It's been one
of the worst places on Earth for several decades…”,maintained Cameron
in Vice on Rohingya issue.
Very apt, pertinent and propos was the statement, that was voiced by the operational adviser
of Holland-based ‘Doctors Without
Borders’,Reshma Adatia:
“It’s important for foreign
governments and international actors to really
push that access
to essential humanitarian assistance is required, and it’s required
today,” she said. “We’re talking about hundreds of thousands that are at risk right now,” voiced Adatia well-ago
but it applies still!
Concluding Finale and the Supplication Plea:
SAIRI, by means of the present
report-testimony, hereby supplicates to the collective conscience of the world that:
“These effectively ‘stateless’ and ‘restless’ entities—the Rohingyas and their children - are on their
knees before the collective conscience of the world—the
international community—the UN, the governments and the entire
humanity.
These glimmering flowers are being converted
to dusky coffins,
floating on the Andaman Sea.
The world has become a global village; we are all inhabitants of the same planet to which they belong, and— upon which they are being persecuted, thrashed and beleaguered—their homes being burned down—their heads being smashed
on roads—their bodies being ruined and
crumpled in streets—their small children
being enslaved—their women being made sex-slaves—
and, due to the unapproachability and inaccessibility to food and water they are forced
to drink their own urine to survive...!!! They are like us all—their lives are as precious as our lives—their small babies are as our own small kids—the
children that are now on their knees
‘begging-for- their-lives’ are not, but like ours…!!!
And, if by now, we fail,
therefore, to respond
at this vulnerable hour, or if the global
community continues to shy away from taking a ‘moral stand’,
there can be no more justifiable reason
for the pursuit of a humane society
or for persisting and sticking
to even the least realms
of humaneness”, pleads SAIRI’s
principal investigator, Professor
Qadhi Aurangzeb Al Hafi.
“We have to strive for a ‘principal resolve’ of the ‘Rohingya Children
Crisis’ as a ‘Moral Imperative’—if not a legal requisite,” urges and presages
categorically Prof. Qadhi A.Z. Al Hafi.
Qadhi Aurangzeb Al Hafi’s
name is no stranger to any state of affairs,
when it comes to moral and humane
convictions. Incontestably, the epitome watch-word 'Aurangzeb Al-Hafi' has always
stood for raising sane, courageous and upright voice,
at the critical most junctures of the our era's considerations.
Professor Dr. Al Hafi has long been working
for children in disastrous emergencies and cataclysmic situations. Dr. Aurangzeb Hafi was the prime investigatory head of the projects
concerning the disabled population of refugee camps in Sri Lanka, following
the Asian Tsunami of 2004. He also maintained technical liaisons with the UN and other concerned
quarters thereof.
