We have to embrace all communities of difference (in faith and ethnic identities) with tolerance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We need to see them all as human community, deserving respect and dignity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are approached by external players who come with this ‘Rakhine (Buddhist) versus Rohingya (Muslim) prism\/binary. They have a hidden agenda, we strongly suspect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arakan has Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Christians and animists.Rohingya Muslims are a significant\/substantial community of our old region. These communities had all contributed to the development of our own Arakan kingdom. We lost our independence (to the Burmese) due to the geographic conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our aspirations for liberation (from the Bama colonial subjugation) is inter-generational and widespread. Different generations have struggled towards that goal.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
