"Myanmar accuses UN envoy of bias over Rohingya violence - CNA 28 Feb 2017

YANGON: The Myanmar government has hit out at UN Special Rapporteur Yanghee Lee's latest comments on people who have fled Rakhine state, saying it disagrees with her statements and finds them "unfortunate".

Responding to Channel NewsAsia's queries, Myanmar Foreign Ministry Deputy Director General Aye Aye Soe said Ms Lee appeared to be defending the rights of only one group of people and to appease this group in the community, without referring to the Rohingyas.

Ms Aye Aye Soe said this shows Ms Lee's "bias" as she was not speaking for both Rakhine Buddhist and Rohingya Muslim communities affected by the Oct 9 attacks in Maungdaw, Rakhine."

A wee bit troublesome this Rohingya thingy for Myanmar. After the great fanfare n euphoria of a democratically elected government when everyone expect things to be right n just always suddenly confronted reality!! Reality of religious war"!! Conflict of cultures that defied rational thinking!! 

Can the Myanmar government n people overcome this? Will a religion other than supposedly Buddhism be acceptable n trusted? How do the Buddhists reconciled killing a Rohingya who just happened to be a Muslim, assuming a non-radical n nonviolent type, with the preserving life teaching of Buddhism as I know it? Or there is a school of Buddhism like Islam that advocate killing of all non-believers?

May they find the solutions since outsiders really has no biz to sermonise to the Myanmar people.

May there be peace thete eventually. Quickly is better! Allah is great. Buddha be happy to.
