Rohingya Refugees in Bangladesh: Exploitations and Challenges for Host Community
Keywords:
rohingya refugees, humanitarian crisis, human rights, security threats to bangladesh
Abstract
Bangladesh has been facing a new crisis to provide shelter to the Rohingyas who were forcibly repatriated from Myanmar. Though Rohingyas taking shelter in Bangladesh started in 1978, the last massive influx of the Rohingyas occurred on 25 August 2017, when more than 7,00,000 Rohingya refugees fled to Bangladesh due to massive crime against humanity in Myanmar. More than a million Rohingya refugees live in Rohingya camps in Cox's Bazar, wherein, in most cases, the Rohingyas are exploited in many ways for many reasons, and the personal security of the Rohingya in the camps are under threat in many ways. Therefore, this paper explores two issues. First, the paper argues that the overall fundamental human rights of the Rohingya in the camps are undermined; and second, in other ways, Rohingya also creates challenges for Bangladesh as the host country.
