Michelle Yeoh praises Najib on Rohingya issues

Malaysia continues to boost capability of field hospital, Hishammuddin says

The hospital was opened on Saturday in the presence of Abdullah Khamis Al Shamsi, Acting Charge d'Affaires of the UAE Embassy in Bangladesh, and General Tan Sri Raja Affandi, Chief of Defence Force of Malaysia.

Yeoh is also United Nations Development Programme ambassador and urged the global community to show solidarity with the Rohingya who are mostly Muslim and have been fleeing from their homelands in Myanmar's Rakhine state in the hundreds of thousands to neighbouring countries with accounts of brutal persecution. Malaysia continues to enhance the capability of its field hospital in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh by adding medical equipment to help more Rohingya refugees in the country.

Malaysia will look into ways to further improve and upgrade the services provided in the Malaysian field hospital here so as to provide better services, especially to Rohingya refugees.

"We hope Indonesia's stance for the Rohingyas will remain unchanged at the United Nations", he said.

SIT to probe Gurgaon school bus attack; Karni Sena leader in custody
Meanwhile, a message had gone viral on social media that five Muslim youths had been detained for the attack on the schoolbus. Led by Lokendra Singh Kalvi, the Rajput Karni Sena alleges that history had been distorted by the makers of the period drama.

He said the report on the condition of the hospital would be submitted to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to decide whether to extend the hospital's operation or otherwise. It should not be allowed. "Every single one of them deserves to have the human rights that should be given to them". It has been funded by the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Malaysia.

"The time to act is now and I appeal to all countries to lend their support and provide aid to these suffering men, women and children whose survival depend on your generosity", she said. The team comprised 57 representatives from the Prime Minister's Office, Malaysian Armed Forces and seven members of the media.

The mission will evaluate the impact of assistance provided by Malaysia so far, besides ensuring that the field hospital is equipped with adequate resources. From the military air base, the special delegation landed at Chittagong airport where they handed over the humanitarian aid to Bangladeshi government before proceeding to Cox's Bazar.
