The following statement of
the President of Indonesia Joko Widodo related Action Violence and Humanitarian
Crisis in Rakhine State (humanitarian crisis that hit the ethnic Rohingya)
which was released from the official website setneg.go.id
•
I and the entire Indonesian people, we regret the violence that took place in
Rakhine State, Myanmar.
•
Need a real action is not just a statement of criticism. And the government is
committed continuously to help overcome the humanitarian crisis, synergize with
the power of civil society in Indonesia as well as the international community.
•
I have assigned the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia to
establish intensive communication with various parties including the Secretary
General of the United Nations Mr. Antonio Guterres and the Special Advisory
Committee for Rakhine State, Mr. Kofi Annan.
•
And this afternoon the Minister of Foreign Affairs has traveled to Myanmar, to
request the government of Myanmar to stop and prevent violence, to provide
protection to all citizens including Muslims in Myanmar, and to provide access
to humanitarian assistance.
•
For the handling of humanitarian aspects of the conflict, the government has
sent food and medicine aid. This is in January and February as many as 10
containers.
•
Also has built a school in Rakhine State and is also about to set up a hospital
which will begin in October at Rakhine State.
•
Indonesia has also accommodated refugees and provided the best assistance.
•
I also assigned the Minister of Foreign Affairs to fly to Dhaka, in Bangladesh,
in order to provide humanitarian assistance to the needs of refugees residing
in Bangladesh. We hope this week we will send more food and medicine aid.
•
Once again, violence, this humanitarian crisis must be stopped immediately.
I think that's what I can
tell you tonight.
Thanks.
