ARU-DG SPEAKS AT THE IILO CONFERENCE ON OPPRESSED PEOPLE IN MYANMAR
A conference on oppressed people of
Myanmar was convened by the International Islamic Lawyers Organization (IILO)
was held in Istanbul, Turkey, October 2-4, 2012. Over one hundred lawyers from
Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Iraq, Turkey, Egypt, Libya, Algeria,
Tunisia, Morocco, Sudan, Qatar, Bahrain, United States of America, Great Britain,
Germany, Spain, Italy, Malaysia, and several other countries participated in
the conference. Additionally representatives from Rohingya community including
Director General of ARU Prof. Dr. Wakar Uddin, ARU Council Member from Turkey Mr.
Eyup Han, Rohingya Jalia leaders from Saudi Arabia Mr. Mohammed Ayub, Mr.
Abdullah Maruf, and others, RSO leader Dr. Mohammed Yunus, ARNO leader Mr.
Nurul Islam, and other Rohingya representatives from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and
Malaysia, also attended the conference.
On behalf of Rohingya community worldwide, Dr. Wakar Uddin addressed
the audience with details of the current situation on the ground in Arakan, role of
ARU in OIC’s engagement with Myanmar Government, and the importance of concerted
efforts by the international community to help advance the Rohingya cause. Dr.
Uddin provided some compelling evidences of ethnic cleansing and genocide
against Rohingya, and the ongoing atrocities against Rohingya committed by the
Burmese/Rakhine police force and the Rakhine mobs. He also cautioned that those
examples are just tips of the iceberg, and the depth of
width of the crisis in Arakan is much more profound than the evidences
presented in the conference. Dr. Uddin has appealed the IILO, the Muslim Umma,
and the international community to help the Rohingya people bring the perpetrators
to justice at the International Criminal Court and other entities for the
crimes they committed against humanity in Arakan. There were several new
developments at the conference, and the details will be available at
due course of time.

Thanks to our Rohingya Learder Dr Wakar Uddin.
It is a good news for all Rohingyas that at-least Rohingya Servants are trying something in their personal way disregarding the urgent call of the time of Rohingyas and our native land Arakan.
These leaders have been meeting in many prestigous world forume and conferences in the last few weeks which nobody can deny as a fruitful matter.
The irony of the fate of oppressed and persecuted Rohingya people is that what has been showing from outer layer of the efforts is differentfrom genuine inside undertakings of the Activists.
They met in Malaysia and Turkey, but,the Rohingya public want that an urgen meeting of
Dr.W Uddin,Nur Islam(ARNO),Dr.Yunoos(RSO) alongwith other VIPs of Rohingya diaspora is more important than all other issues to form a unified Rohingya leadership council with selection of a unique
Rohingya Representative leader to lead the Rohingya nation from its current situation to immediately protect the Rohingyas from further
extinction.
During my discussion with Abdul Malik Mujahid, one of the Founder of Burma Task Force/USA during the ISNA Convention in Washington DC ,he told that Rohingya leaders need to sacrifice their leadership ego on extreme point to save the Rohingyas.
