Rohingya: Not The Words Of Our Enemies But The Silence Of Our Friends

Maung Zarni, the founder of the Free Burma Coalition and a noted Burmese democracy activist, who recently gave a seminar on the Ethnocide and Genocide of Myanmar's Rohingya Muslims.

He is a Visiting Fellow with the the London School of Economics and since February this year a Visiting Senior Research Fellow with the University of Malaya Centre for Democracy and Election.

Dr Maung Zarni speaks exclusively to BFM about the situation in Burma, Aung San Sui Kyi’s continuing silence on the plight of the Rohingya Muslims, as well as the role of ASEAN and the international community to step in and stop the violence.
