    We are off with & to visit the Rohingya refugee population now. After all they suffered, they need a place to recover so they can recover their lives and their hope.

    The Rohingya are one of the most discriminated against and vulnerable communities on Earth. The Rohingya refugee crisis is a humanitarian and human rights nightmare. I thank Bangladesh for its generosity in hosting the refugees.

    Happy to participate in the opening of this year’s consultations with NGOs. The theme is “putting people first”. At a time when even refugees and displaced are politicized and dehumanized, I cannot think of a better focus.
