OP-ED: The world has a duty to support Bangladesh
Other countries need to do their part in creating a sustainable solution for the Rohingya
The terrible news that dozens of Rohingya refugees have apparently drowned after their boat sank in the Bay of Bengal serves as a reminder of the dangers facing their community.
The circumstances of the tragedy aren’t fully clear, but it seems the accident occurred as people tried to leave the island of Bhashan Char in Hatiya Upazila, about 60km from the mainland.
