Beiträge, die mit ROHINGYA getaggt sind


The fact that the deaths of six tourists (all westerners) in #SoutheastAsia (#Laos) is a far bigger story than the 174 #Rohingya who died when their boat sank last week says a lot about how the world values some lives over others.

Both were, technically, groups of travelers. One made up of privileged members, with western passports, whose deaths will likely results in extensive investigation.

The others, nameless, unwanted stateless #refugees left to fend for themselves.


If this was 174 white people, Americans, Europeans, Japanese, Koreans, etc, it would be a major global story for weeks.

But since it's 174 #Rohingya, it barely merits a peep.
