Thousands of Rohingya and Bangladeshi migrants have been adrift in the Andaman Sea for over a week, starving, dehydrated and in desperate condition. Unlike the Bangladeshis who are escaping poverty, the Rohingyas are fleeing persecution in what they regard their home, the Western Myanmar state of Rakhine. Today, we explore the conditions that have led Rohingyas to risk their lives in search of a better future.
This is a report by Sharyl Kaur and Sherilyn Goh.

Well, it's difficult to find a country to accept them. Gambia is so nice & helpful in accepting them. I think Msia & Indonesia should immediately proceed to process the handover. After all, these are illegal economy refugees, so long a place is willing to accept them, they should find it a paradise. Be fair to everyone, we have helped them in allowing them to land, but we cannot comply to their request on where they want to go.

They should be sent to Gambia, who has welcomed the Rohingya. If not, the Bangladesh should take back their people.
