A Boat Carrying 500 Refugees Sunk at Sea. The Story of Two Survivors
載著五百名難民的船沉沒，兩名生還者的故事（中、英字幕）
Melissa Fleming:
"And I understand the public fears. People are worried about their security, their economies, the changes of the culture. But is that more important than saving human lives?
Because there is something fundamental here that I think overrides the rest, and it is about our common humanity. No person fleeing war or persecution should have to die crossing a sea to reach safety.
1. Host refugees and asylum seekers in your home.
2. Volunteer your specific skill.
3. Help refugees to integrate into a new culture.

5. Employ refugees.
6. Offer opportunities for refugees to volunteer.
7. Hold awareness and fundraising events.

Teenage Rohingya Muslim boy who cannot swim floats on oil drum across sea from Burma to Bangladesh 'I was so scared of dying,' says 13-year-old Nabi Hussain
Narjas Zatat, The Independent
A 13-year-old boy who is unable to swim, used an oil drum to make the two-and-a-half mile sea crossing from Burma to Bangladesh, amid escalating violence against a Rohingya Muslim minority
Nabi Hussain strapped cooking oil containers to his chest and used it to float to the port of Shah Porir Dwip.
“I was so scared of dying,” the teenager said, adding that he had passed countless bodies on the journey.
The fourth of nine children Nabi grew up in the mountains of Burma, where his father was farmer who grows paan, the betel leaf used as chewing tobacco. He never went to school.
The family were forced to flee after the Burmese military moved in on his village. The last Nabi saw of it, all the homes were on fire.
It came as part of a brutal crackdown by security forces in country after some of their members were attacked by Rohingya insurgents in the Rakhine province, in August.
The military has been accused of killing men, raping women and burning homes and property.
While Nabi's family were able to reach the coast they had no money for a boat or a smuggler to get them to Bangladesh.
撤回/取消〈給馬來西亞政府/政黨領導，請給緬甸和孟加拉難民更好的保護〉聯署
Withdrawn/cancelled the petition of "To Malaysia government: Please provide a better protection to Myanmar and Bengal Refugees."
2016年，我啟動了一項聯署：〈給馬來西亞政府/政黨領導，請給緬甸和孟加拉難民更好的保護〉
To Malaysia government: Please provide a better protection to Myanmar and Bengal Refugees.
In 2016, I launched a petition: "To Malaysia government: Please provide a better protection to Myanmar and Bengal Refugees."
For a reason, I withdraw/cancel this petition. Please ignore my requests in the petition and don't be influenced by my requests. I'm not saying that assistance or better protection cannot be given to refugees from any place/country, but I just won't make requests anymore.
If you have forwarded this petition or requests that I made to others (including but not limited to government units, any political party or organization, general public, etc.) or shared it elsewhere, could you please also help to forward the complete content of my statement today to those you forwarded/shared before, and share/update this latest statement to the place you shared before to keep the others updated? Thank you.
Last but not least, my personal thoughts in this mail do not represent the thoughts of all Malaysians.
