Last Saturday, a delegation led by Union Minister U Ko Ko Hlaing of the Military Council showcased the preparations made by the Military Council in the Maungdaw region for the repatriation of refugees to the leaders of 16 embassies and diplomats stationed in Burma.
The delegation flew into Sittwe Township on September 1 and the following day, they traveled to Maungdaw Township using military helicopters.
Throughout their trip, they visited the Taung Pyo Let Wae reception center, Kyein Chaung (South) village which is designated for refugee resettlement and the Hla Phoe Khaung transit camp.
The delegation comprises U Ko Ko Hlaing, Deputy Chairman of the Rakhine State Stability and Development Coordination Committee 1 and Union Minister of the Ministry of International Cooperation, Dr. Yin Yin Nwe, Advisor to the Chairman of the Military Council, General Khun Thant Zaw Htoo, Deputy Minister of Border Affairs, as well as the leaders of 16 embassies and other diplomats.
The Military Council has not provided information about the specific countries which were among the 16 embassies.
The Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh are requesting the Myanmar Military Council to fulfill 3 key points upon their return to Myanmar which include 1)the ability to return to their homes with dignity, 2)resettle in their original homes and 3)the granting of citizenship rights and the assurance of security guarantees.
Apparently, the Myanmar military has not yet settled down to any agreement to take back Rohingyas after so many failed returning attempts.
