"I Love You" - The Myanmar Refugees

A group of 34 Rohingyas (a minority living in the Arakan State, Myanmar) tries to escape the Myanmar's military oppression and to reach Malaysia through the Ocean.
Packed in a small boat, they navigate for 5 days in the Andaman sea in very rough conditions.
Exhausted, they approach by mistake a small Thai island, where it ends their dream to reach Malaysia or Indonesia.
Even thought Thailand was not their first choice, they're still lucky to not have shipwrecked, nor to have approached to a Myanmar's island in the Andaman region.
Finally, a Thai military ship comes to take them away...

@chitkoko201

You're free to express any opinion here.

About your question : I am not a Rohyngia. I just saw them approaching the island and filmed them. They seem to come from Rahkine region in Myanmar, not from Bangladesh same as you suggest. If you have some proof they come from Bangladesh, please let us know them, and we will change the info in the videoclip.

Regarding your suggestion to host them at my home: well, such a kind of sentence doesn't deserve any comment or answer.

why they run all men only....they left women and children ....hahaha....thinking

[gattacc]

Your question "why they run all men only" is very interesting, and it really would deserve a serious discussion.

Anyway, thinking is different from laughing.

Who says "they are Rufegees". This is not about political conflict, this is about population bombing. If they are refugees, why they are not bringing their wives and children. Do you know the meaning of the word "refugee"? They left their wives and children, so that they can bring them later, once they buy a house. I think, they are very selfish . I know, everyone wants a better life. You came in to Thailand to get a better life. Don't try to make up the stories.

Hi Minrazargri2

All comments are welcome here.

anyway..

1 - I would suggest to keep apart personal definitions of the word "refugee".

From wikipedia: "refugee is a person who flees to a foreign country or power to escape danger or persecution"

2 - Maybe you've missed a point: I am not a Rohyngia.

3 - The video just show an event.

4 - The video does NOT include any criticism againts Myanmar people, Thai people, Thai authorities, Arakanese people, Rohyngia people... but the Myanmar gov.

@mingalabaa Hey if u live in Burma u should follow up their rule and traditional way. Burmase people r married only one wife in their whole life. if u live in Bangladesh, U can married more than 4 wife.I think this might be good for u stupid head...... I think u are Bangali. That's why u are defending on this people. Please stop making up your story right now. OK

[minrazargri2]

@gattacc Do u really believe what they said? Hey all people are say that" I'm a good person". No body say "I'm a criminal". This people are speaking Bangali language. That why this people r frrom Bangladesh.If u want to get true information,you should travel in to Burma and get a real information.

[minrazargri2]

Hey gattacc .. you say you are not Rohingya but you are getting so much money from this Rohingya and other islamic organization. This people are so much taking advantage on Burma political situation.All international org.. should know that this people are econimical refugee. Many this Bangalie(Rohingya) people r working together with military Government in Burma. U should do more research on this peolple.

[mingalabaa]

@minrazargri2 They are real refugees because people like you exist on this earth. Rohingys are so deprived that even if they want more than one wife, they cannot. So stop blowing your smoke to spread propaganda. No one is buying your bs.

[mingalabaa]

@minrazargri2 You (or your parents) got abroad and become citizens there and yet you have no decency to p acknowledge the rights of citizenship of a people whose community originated inside Arakan.

[mingalabaa]

@soe722218 Burmese people in US take citizenship but wouldn't want Rohingya Muslims who were born in Burma get their citizenship. And they call themselves Buddhists.

[mingalabaa]

@soe722218 Obviously, you're thinking with no brain.

[mingalabaa]

@gattacc Ignore those bigots; they're not worth your response.

[mingalabaa]

@gattacc Though the video doesn't contain criticism about Burma, these Burmese bigots know that these people left with such a boat because of the danger of persecution. But to cover their bigotry, they acts like morons. 

[mingalabaa]

@minrazargri2  Only idiots would bring takes wives and children on a boat like that to drift in the sea with on one knowing where they'd end up. You people are morons.
