More Rohingya boat people coming to Australia
Nov 24^th, 2016 at 10:05am

Myanmar invoked a military campaign against them and Bangladesh is closing its borders.

Australia has been championing Rohingya cause internationally and imposing on Asian nations to accept Rohingya refugees which binds Australia to accept Rohingya refugees.

Rohingya are sea faring people who can evade Australia's navy.

Quote:

Bangladesh border guards said they have been ordered bar any Rohingya from entering Bangladesh.

“In the past six weeks we have pushed back dozens of Rohingya-laden boats before they could reach Bangladeshi territory. We have been intercepting two or three such boats every day. They all are being sent back toward Myanmar,” Lt Col Abuzar Al Zahid, commanding officer of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) in southeastern Bangladesh, told VOA.

Or take it over like UK settlers did in Australia if you are powerful enough.

If you have a stronger, technologically superior and more organised culture, dominate. If you don't, integrate. That's how things usually go

The Rohingya must have misjudged badly their ability to dominate. They should have just melted in.

This lesson is free.

You know hardline clerics from Bangladesh are always revving them up? How many times have you been to Myanmar? Hows your on the ground info?

BTW I think the Burmese persecution of the Karen.
Nobody seems to care about them.

They never tried to "dominate".

I think you have some reading to do.

They agitate for a separate state. How do you really think that's going to end in that part of the world?
