After the release of my article, "Protection of Rohingya Undocumented Refugees in Bangladesh", I have got huge response from different countries of the world including the European Parliament to put it up in its three important committees. But the response that came from different human rights activists and NGOs of Bangladesh is worth mentioning with special thanks. The executive director of an NGO wrote me: "It is really pathetic to see the plight of those homeless Rohingyas in their slums most of which sprawl by the road and also in the hill areas. If you go to their slums, you will see thousands of distressed men, women and children passing their life virtually in sub-human condition. You will see there scores of small, naked children with swollen bellies trying to find entertainment with muds, water or sand and they have no scope to go to school. They die from anything - fever or diarrhoea or any other diseases. But they don't get any ration or relief. Forest is the easiest source for their survival. They chop down the trees and sell them as log and firewood. Of course, what else can they do? There is no jobs for them in plenty. It is really a big question, how these hapless people and the next generation of Rohingyas will survive." However, I salute their concern," How these hapless people and the next generation of Rohingyas will survive?" and express our gratitude to them as well as to the humanitarian people of Bangladesh for their sympathy to the plight of suffering Rohingyas.
