  1. I am a Rohingya US citizen living in US. It is crystal clear to all over the world about who committed the hate crimes, the atrocities the guity party will never admit. Instead of wasting time in our argument, Rohingya leaders should focus on solutions. What they really want in short/long terms are: restoration of citizenship that was lost in 1982, justice, peace and security.
