Shut out from Bangladesh schools, Rohingyas turn to madrassas
2019-06-19
[AlAhram] Half a million refugee Rohingya children are shut out of local schools in Bangladesh, leaving many in religious madrassas where critics say educational standards are low and students are vulnerable to indoctrination.

Around 740,000 Moslem Rohingya fled into the country during a 2017 crackdown by Myanmar's military, swelling the numbers of the minority in Bangladesh to around a million.

But while their language and culture are similar to people in southeastern Bangladesh, authorities regard the Rohingya as temporary guests and their children are denied access to local schools, raising fears of a "lost generation".

#4  RAB setting up dedicated battalion [in Cox's Bazar] to monitor Rohingya muslims (2 min: generic street footage, a few words from the boss, more generic route march). DG of RAB an English major (sez Wiki)? Color me boggled charmed.

#3  Notice that the Bangladeshis aren't letting them into their schools. But the problem is entirely caused by the non-Muslims who object to the colonists...

#2   "I wanted to be a doctor, but I don't think it will be possible," she told AFP, breaking down in tears.

Hold the tears. It wasn't possible anyway. Rohingya girls get married at 11. Fucking fake muslim media 'boo hoo' nonsense. Rohingya girls are treated less than cattle, they are bred only for breeding or selling or covering debts.

#1  Admit one muslim kid into a school, he may learn something. Admit two, they'll muddle through while trying to make life hard for everyone else. Admit three and you've set a fucking knifer gang among schoolchildren.
