PRESS RELEASE
Rohingya People Unequivocally Condemns the Grossly Irrational Behavior of the Protesters in the Rally in Bangkok
Date: April 10, 2013
On behalf of the Rohingya community worldwide, the Arakan Rohingya Union (ARU) denounces, in its strongest terms, the burning of the images of the Burmese independence leader and father of the nation Bogyoke Aung San and the NLD leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi at a rally reportedly organized by the Burmese Rohingya Association of Thailand (BRAT) on April 9, 2013.
ARU makes it clear that a gross misconduct by a small group of misguided individuals on a street of Bangkok does not represent the view of the Rohingya people by any means, and it does not reflect the ideals of the Rohingya community in Burma and around the world. Such utterly irrational and abominable behavior of a small group of stray individuals on the street of Bangkok must not be acceptable by any standard of social norm.
ARU calls on all the Rohingya people worldwide to take every precaution not to be misguided by any unruly or irrational group that embraces such behaviors and actions that do not serve any purpose whatsoever.
