WE ARE ALSO HUMAN BEING. 
"ROHINGYA, The Most Persecuted People in the World"
An argument between a Buddhist couple and the Muslim owners of a gold shop in the Burmese city of Meikhtila escalated into a riot involving hundreds of people last week. The sectarian violence escalated over the weekend and has led to the deaths of dozens of people, the displacement of at least 10,000 more and the destruction of property.

Villagers corroborate Rohyinga story on Thai military shooting


"Four Rohingya who swam to the shore were rescued by local Thai villagers. Thai security forces searched the area for two days after the incident, but the villagers kept the survivors hidden. The bodies of two Rohingya showing bullet wounds were later pulled from the sea and buried in a Muslim cemetery in Kuraburi district. Thai fishermen told Human Rights Watch they saw more dead bodies in the water but had no more information. The fate of the remaining passengers on the boat remains unknown after it was towed away by the Thai navy."
