BURMA’S MISSING DOTS – THE EMERGING FACE OF GENOCIDE is an Essays on Chauvinistic Nationalism And Genocide in Burma against Rohingya People of Arakan written by Dr. Abid Bahar in 2010. This book began with the work on my thesis” Dynamics of Ethnic Relations in Burmese Society” done in 1982 at the University of Windsor, Canada. Certain chapters of the present book began as occasional papers published online and still others originated in papers I presented in International Conferences in Kualalampur, Tokyo, Geneva, Lethbridge University in Alberta, Chittagong and in Montreal. Therefore, to avoid repetition, it is recommended that each chapter be read separately as a paper. Certain terms such as Burma is used for the official name of the country Myanmar, Rakhine sometimes applied to the Mogh or Buddhist population of Arakan. For Rohingyas, I sometimes used the name Muslim of Arakan in a broader sense.
During the period of my research over the past three decades, many people have helped me in this endeavor: Dr. C.L. Vincent, Dr. Max Hadley, Salimullah in Japan, Nurul Islam (ARNO) in UK and Mohiuddin (NDPHR) in New York. Farkan and Hasan, in Japan and Nurul Islam in Chittagong, Professor Zakaria, and. Advocate Hafizullah, my brother also deserve very special thanks.
