ROHINGYA refugees who have fled violence in Myanmar faced protests in Indonesia today.
Over 1,500 Rohingya who left Myanmar to escape violent attacks by the country’s military, and are now leaving camps in neighbouring Bangladesh in search of better lives, have arrived in Aceh, a province on the northern tip of Sumatra island, since November.
However, they have faced hostility from some fellow Muslims in Aceh.
