I am a Rohingya Refugee
Navigating identities: is there a relationship between Diaspora’s homeland and new land? How do diasporas express their sense of belonging in multiple societies?
Risking death by sea or on foot, nearly 700000 rohingya people have been forced to flee from Myanmar to Bangladesh since August, 2017 due to state sponsored military crackdown.While Rohingyas are dissimilar to the Burmese, they (Rohingyas) are similar to Bangladeshi citizens to some extent,in terms of appearance, language, food and clothing, and most importantly, religion.
A major driving force behind Rohingya exodus to Bangladesh is religion.
The Rohingyas assume that Bangladesh is a Muslim majority country; the commonality of
religion between the Rohingyas and the Bangladeshi people would enable a safe resort for the
Rohingyas to live in peace in Bangladesh, and let them do their religious practices. Their
assumptions became true partly. However, religious similarity does not resolve the issues around
their legal status and identity crisis. Despite being exploited, many Rohingyas retain a firm belief
in their connection to their land, Burma, and their ethnic identity.
