Malaysia to repatriate Myanmar nationals after clashes
[Pak Daily Times] Malaysia said Thursday it would work with Myanmar to repatriate thousands of their nationals following festivities in the community that left at least four dead and led to a security sweep.The two Southeast Asian nations insisted that violence -- beginning late May at a wholesale market in Kuala Lumpur -- linked to strife between majority Buddhists and minority Mohammedans in Myanmar was under control. Malaysian authorities have suggested Buddhists came under attack from Mohammedan countrymen seeking vengeance over deadly sectarian strife back in Myanmar. "It is a clash of Myanmars among themselves... The quarrel they have back home is brought to our country," Malaysian Deputy Home Minister Wan Junaidi Jaafar told news hounds after meeting a delegation from Myanmar. Posted by: Fred 2013-06-14 |
