Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said Myanmar should let the
international organisations to work in the Rakhine state to create a proper
environment for the dignified return of the forcibly displaced Rohingya
people.
“Myanmar should allow international organisations to work in
Rakhine state,” she said when UN Special Envoy for Myanmar Noeleen Heyzer met
her at her official residence Ganobhaban on Thursday, reports UNB citing press
briefing by PM’s press secretary Ihsanul Karim.
“We’re pursuing this with Myanmar and also discussed it with
them. But no response has yet come. We want to solve it. How long can we host
so many people?” the premier was quoted as saying.
She said some Rohingya people are involved in drug, human
trafficking and other social problems.
In this regard, Hasina mentioned that Bangladesh had brought
back the refugees of the Chittagong Hill Tracts area from India through signing
the CHT peace accord in 1997.
The UN special envoy said she visited Rohingya camps in
Cox’s Bazar and spoke with the Rohingyas. Now it is essential to create an
atmosphere conducive to their dignified return to Myanmar, she said.
She said all including the UN agencies and NGOs are working
for Rohingyas in the camps.
Appreciating Bangladesh for its Rohingya management, the UN
envoy said Dhaka needs a lot of support in dealing with the Rohingya
issue.
Heyzer said she also visited Myanmar and told its military
government to find out a solution to the Rohingya crisis.
She called for an ASEAN-Bangladesh initiative to resolve the
Rohingya crisis.
She said the Rohingya issue should be an agenda in the ASEAN
Foreign Ministers' forum.
PM’s ambassador-at-large Mohammad Ziauddin, PM’s Principal
Secretary Ahmad Kaikaus and PM’s Press Secretary Ihsanul Karim were present at
the meeting.
