Myanmar: New Atrocities against Rohingya

Escalating Fighting amid 7 Years of Desperation

(Bangkok) – Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar are facing the gravest threats since 2017, when the Myanmar military carried out a sweeping campaign of massacres, rape, and arson in northern Rakhine State, Human Rights Watch said today. August 25, 2024, marks the seventh anniversary since the start of the military’s crimes against humanity and acts of genocide that forced more than 750,000 Rohingya to flee to Bangladesh.

In recent months, the Myanmar military and the ethnic Arakan Army have committed mass killings, arson, and unlawful recruitment against Rohingya communities in Rakhine State. On August 5, nearly 200 people were reportedly killed following drone strikes and shelling on civilians fleeing fighting in Maungdaw town near the Bangladesh border, according to Rohingya witnesses. About 630,000 Rohingya remain in Myanmar under a system of apartheid that leaves them exceptionally vulnerable to renewed fighting.

“Rohingya in Rakhine State are enduring abuses tragically reminiscent of the military’s atrocities in 2017,” said Elaine Pearson, Asia director at Human Rights Watch. “Once again, armed forces are driving thousands of Rohingya from their homes with killings and arson, leaving them nowhere safe to turn.”

Rohingya have been caught in the middle of the fighting since hostilities resumed in November 2023, ending a year-long unofficial ceasefire. As the Arakan Army has rapidly expanded its control across Rakhine State, the military has responded with indiscriminate attacks on civilians using helicopter gunships, artillery, and ground assaults. In late April, Arakan Army forces began attacking Rohingya villages in Buthidaung, culminating in their May 17 capture of the town, during which they shelled, looted, and burned Rohingya neighborhoods.

Armed clashes have since moved west to Maungdaw, spurring further abuses and displacement, including arson and looting. Four videos from the August 5 attacks shared on X, formerly Twitter, on August 6 show dozens of bodies of men, women, and children. Geoconfirmed identified the location, which Human Rights Watch corroborated, at the western edge of Maungdaw town. Rohingya witnesses told Human Rights Watch they believed the Arakan Army was responsible. The junta and Arakan Army have blamed each other for the attacks.

Nearly seven years after the Myanmar military killed thousands of Muslim Rohingyas, in what the UN called "textbook ethnic cleansing", it wants their help.

From interviews with Rohingyas living in Rakhine State the BBC has learned of at least 100 of them being conscripted in recent weeks to fight for the embattled junta. All their names have been changed to protect them.

"I was frightened, but I had to go," says Mohammed, a 31-year-old Rohingya man with three young children. He lives near the capital of Rakhine, Sittwe, in the Baw Du Pha camp. At least 150,000 internally displaced Rohingyas have been forced to live in IDP camps for the past decade.

In the middle of February the camp leader came to him late at night, Mohammed said, and told him he would have to do military training. "These are army orders," he remembers him saying. "If you refuse they have threatened to harm your family."

The BBC has spoken to several Rohingyas who have confirmed that army officers have been going around the camps and ordering the younger men to report for military training.

The terrible irony for men like Mohammed is that Rohingyas in Myanmar are still denied citizenship, and subjected to a range of discriminatory restrictions - like a ban on travel outside their communities.

In 2012 tens of thousands of Rohingyas were driven out of mixed communities in Rakhine State, and forced to live in squalid camps. Five years later, in August 2017, 700,000 fled to neighbouring Bangladesh, after the army launched a brutal clearance operation against them, killing and raping thousands and burning their villages. Some 600,000 of them still remain there.

Myanmar is now facing a genocide trial at the International Court of Justice in the Hague over its treatment of the Rohingyas.

That the same army is now forcibly recruiting them is a telling sign of its desperation, after losing huge swathes of territory in Rakhine recently to an ethnic insurgent group called the Arakan Army. Dozens of Rohingyas in Rakhine have been killed by military artillery and aerial bombardments.

The military has also suffered significant losses to opposition forces in other parts of the country - on Saturday it lost control of Myawaddy, a town on the eastern border with Thailand. Most of the country's overland trade passes through this vital route.

The junta has lost large numbers of soldiers as well. They have been killed, wounded, surrendered or defected to the opposition, and finding replacements is difficult. Few want to risk their lives propping up an unpopular regime.

And the Rohingyas fear that is the reason they are being targeted again - to be cannon fodder in a war the junta seems to be losing.

Mohammed said he was driven to the base of the 270th Light Infantry Battalion in Sittwe. Rohingyas have been prohibited from living in the town since they were driven out during the 2012 communal violence.

"We were taught how to load bullets and shoot," he said. "They also showed us how to disassemble and reassemble a gun."

In a video seen by the BBC another group of Rohingya conscripts can be seen being taught how to use BA 63 rifles, an older standard weapon used by the Myanmar armed forces.

Mohammed was trained for two weeks, then sent home. But after just two days he was called back, and put on a boat with 250 other soldiers and transported five hours up-river to Rathedaung, where a fierce battle with the Arakan Army was under way for control of three hilltop military bases.

"I had no idea why I was fighting. When they told me to shoot at a Rakhine village, I would shoot."

He fought there for 11 days. They were desperately short of food, after a shell fell on their supply hut. He saw several Rohingya conscripts killed by artillery and he was injured by shrapnel in both legs, and taken back to Sittwe for treatment.

On 20 March the Arakan Army released photos from the battle, after it had taken control of the three bases, showing several corpses, at least three of them identified as Rohingyas.

"While I was in the middle of the battle I was terrified the whole time. I kept thinking about my family," Mohammed said. "I never thought I would have to go to war like that. I just wanted to go home. When I got home from the hospital I hugged my mother and cried. It felt like being born again from my mother's womb."

Another conscript was Hussain, from Ohn Taw Gyi camp, which is also near Sittwe. His brother Mahmoud says he was taken away in February and completed his military training, but he went into hiding before they could send him to the front line.

The military denies using Rohingyas to fight its battles with the Arakan Army. General Zaw Min Tun, the junta spokesman, told the BBC that there was no plan to send them to the front line. "We want to ensure their safety, so we have asked them to help with their own defence," he said.

But in interviews with the BBC, seven Rohingyas in five different IDP camps near Sittwe all said the same thing: that they know of at least 100 Rohingyas who have been recruited this year and sent off to fight.

They said teams of soldiers and local government officials came to the camps in February to announce that the younger men would be conscripted, at first telling people they would get food, wages and citizenship if they joined up. These were powerful lures.

Food in the IDP camps has become scarce and expensive as the escalating conflict with the Arakan Army has cut off the international aid supplies. And the denial of citizenship is at the heart of the Rohingyas' long struggle for acceptance in Myanmar, and one reason they suffer systematic discrimination, described by human rights groups as similar to apartheid.

However, when the soldiers returned to take the conscripted men away, they retracted the offer of citizenship. When asked by the camp residents why they, as non-citizens, should be subjected to conscription, they were told that they had a duty to defend the place where they lived. They would be militiamen, not soldiers, they were told. When they asked about the offer of citizenship, the answer was "you misunderstood".

Now, according to one camp committee member, the army is demanding new lists of potential recruits. After seeing and hearing from the first group to come back from the front line, he said, no-one else was willing to risk being conscripted.

So the camp leaders are now trying to persuade the poorest men, and those with no jobs, to go, by offering to support their families while they are away, with donations raised from other camp residents.

"This conscription campaign is unlawful and more akin to forced labour," said Matthew Smith, from the human rights group Fortify Rights.

"There's a brutal and perverse utility to what's happening. The military is conscripting the victims of the Rohingya genocide in an attempt to fend off a nationwide democratic revolution. This regime has no regard for human life. It's now layering these abuses on top of its long history of atrocities and impunity."

By using Rohingyas in its battles against the advancing Arakan Army, the Myanmar military threatens to reignite communal conflict with the ethnic Rakhine Buddhist population, much of which supports the insurgents.

It was friction between the two communities which in 2012 caused the expulsion of tens of thousands of Rohingyas from towns like Sittwe. In 2017, ethnic Rakhine men joined in the army's attacks on the Rohingyas.

Tension between the two communities has eased since then.

The Arakan Army is fighting for an autonomous state, part of a wider campaign with other ethnic armies and opposition groups to overthrow the military junta and create a new, federal system in Myanmar.

Now on the brink of victory in Rakhine State, the Arakan Army has talked about giving citizenship to all who have lived there recently, implying that it might accept the return of the Rohingya population from Bangladesh.

The mood has now changed. A spokesman for the Arakan Army, Khaing Thukha, told the BBC that they viewed Rohingyas being conscripted to fight for the junta as "the worst betrayal of those who had recently been victims of genocide, and of those fighting for liberation from dictatorship".

Pro-military media have also been giving publicity to what appear to have been Rohingya protests in Buthidaung against the Arakan Army, although local people told the BBC they suspected these were organised by the army in an attempt to divide the two groups.

The Rohingyas are now forced to fight for an army that does not recognise their right to live in Myanmar, thereby alienating the ethnic insurgents who may soon control most of Rakhine. Once targeted by both, they are now caught between the two sides.

Mohammed has been given a certificate by the army, stating that he has fought in battle on their side. He has no idea what value it has, nor whether it exempts him from further military service. It could well get him into trouble with the Arakan Army if it continues its advance towards Sittwe and his camp.

He is still recovering from his injuries, and says he is unable to sleep at night after his experience.

"I'm afraid they will call me again. This time I came back because I was lucky, but next time I am not sure what will happen."

Revolutionary Communist Party

So I recently saw a newspaper stand in a town near me, they were there on a recruitment drive too. So I figured fuck it, and joined up. Yesterday I went to their weekly meeting.

Leftist organising is rare around here and at the very least I need a foot in the door.

This Trotskyist party splintered off from the Labour party after Kier Starmer ousted Jeremy Corbyn and started cracking down on the leftist side of the party. So they've branched out on their own and are currently recruiting like crazy. I'm swept up in this now.

They have an event in November called the Revolutionary Festival that is hosting 3 days of multiple overlapping talks ranging from US imperialism, Dialectical Materialism, Fascism and how to fight it, Bangladesh revolution and the Arab spring histories, World War 1 and it's radicalising effect on soldiers, History of the Labour party, Art and revolution, Ai and Consciousness and a bunch of others.

I'm going to go to it for at least one of the days I think, mostly for networking and learning more about them.

On Reddit they seem to be very divisive among leftist circles for being empirically anti Stalin and for seeming to be well funded. I know now that they reject donors and fund themselves from members and after going to and sitting in on a local branch meeting yesterday I have a better idea of who these guys are and what they're about.

Mostly consisting of University students and student union members but not entirely; the group focuses on theory and education above most else. Importantly they seem to understand that Post Revolution and Societal Building is as important as the vague concept of Revolution itself. A breathe of fresh air from the typical leftist group. ("Uh so now what" mentality when the revolution is successful).

I'll come back to this post soon, after the November "festival" and see if there's anything to add or change.

But so far I'm not seeing many red flags and am quite glad to see a well organised Communist group.

“End the Impunity”: Rohingya Muslims Under Attack by Both Burmese Army and Rebel Group

Up to 200 Rohingya Muslims were killed in drone strikes last week in Burma as they attempted to flee to Bangladesh. This comes amid intensifying conflict between the military junta and the Arakan Army, a rebel armed group. Human Rights Watch says the military and the Arakan Army have both committed extrajudicial killings, unlawful recruitment for combat, and widespread arson against Rohingya civilians. “They are the enemy of each other, but when it comes to the Rohingya issue, they have the same intention,” says Nay San Lwin, co-founder of the Free Rohingya Coalition. Only about 600,000 Rohingya remain in Burma, down from about 1.4 million before a campaign of ethnic cleansing began in 2016, though Nay San Lwin says the Rohingya genocide goes back even further to 1978.

Aug. 5 (UPI) -- Bangladesh's embattled prime minister, Sheikh Hasina, resigned Monday and fled the country after protesters stormed her official residence in the capital amid a growing revolt that began over quotas for government jobs in which hundreds of mostly protesters have died.

The announcement from the head of the army, Gen. Waker-uz-Zaman, came after security forces were overwhelmed by thousands of people incensed by a violent government crackdown descending on the Sher-e-Bangla Nagar area of Dhaka, setting cars and offices ablaze.

Footage circulating online shows protesters celebrating inside Hasina's residence, removing furniture and elsewhere in the city trying to tear down a statue of her father, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, former prime minister and leader of the country's independence movement, who was assassinated in 1975.

Promising the formation of an interim government, Zaman pleaded with demonstrators to call off their protests.

"Whatever demands you have, we will fulfil and bring back peace to the nation, please help us in this, stay away from violence," said Zaman who promised the military would also back off.

"The military will not fire at anyone, the police will not fire at anyone, I have given orders."

Hasina arrived by helicopter in India at a military airbase 17 miles east of Delhi on Monday evening with the BBC reporting that she may be en route to London, citing unconfirmed reports.

A spokesman for British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Monday that he wanted to see urgent action to "ensure democracy" won out -- but made no mention of Hasina coming to Britain or any discussions regarding where she might go into exile.

"The right to peaceful protest must be protected and never subjected to violence, and we call on the authorities to release all peaceful protesters and ensure due process is followed for those charged and prosecuted," he added.

"I hope that swift action is taken to ensure that democracy prevails and accelerate the process towards peace and security to people in Bangladesh."

Hasina's son, Sajeeb Wazed Joy, said she had been considering resigning for the past 24 hours and had left the country for her own safety at the insistence of her family.

He rejected the accusations leveled at the 76-year-old of outstaying her welcome after four terms totaling more than two decades during which she gradually morphed from the democratic icon catapulted into office in a people power uprising into an authoritarian leader amid crackdowns on dissent and allegations of graft.

"She has turned Bangladesh around. When she took over power it was considered a failing state. It was a poor country. Until today it was considered one of the rising tigers of Asia. She's very disappointed."

In Dhaka, demonstrators ignored an evening curfew as unrest and looting continued into the night with demonstrators breaching the gates and damaging the residence of Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan in the Dhanmondi area of the capital where smoke was seen coming from the building.

Protesters torched the city's Mujibur museum.

Northeast of Dhaka, 150 miles away in Sylhet, the offices of the deputy commissioner and superintendent of police and the homes of several councilors were attacked.

Hasina's resignation came a day after more than 90 people were killed Sunday during clashes between anti-government protesters and police -- 13 of whom were among those killed after thousands of people attacked a police station in the northwestern district of Sirajganj.

Sunday's casualties brought the death toll to 280 since early July when student protests over the partial reinstatement by the courts of civil service recruitment quotas -- where sought-after government jobs were reserved for supporters of Hasina's ruling Awami League -- erupted into wider, and violent, anti-government unrest.

Government crackdown efforts escalated from tear gas and rubber bullets to live fire, curfews and Internet blackouts bringing hundreds of thousands more people onto the streets demanding change and ultimately Hasina's resignation.

Student organizers had called Sunday for a national non-cooperation government boycott under which people would refuse to pay taxes and utility bills.

Rohingya refugee Syed fled Myanmar for a second time last month, after he was forced to fight alongside the military that drove his family out of their homeland years earlier. Syed, whose name has been changed to protect him from reprisals, is one of thousands of young men from the stateless and persecuted Muslim minority rounded up to wage a war not of their own making. Their conscription into the ranks of junta-run Myanmar's military has prompted revenge attacks against civilians and pushed thousands more into Bangladesh, already host to around a million Rohingya refugees. "The people there are suffering a lot. I saw that with my own eyes," Syed told AFP, soon after his escape and return to the squalid Bangladeshi relief camp he has called home for the past seven years. "Some are starving, they are dying of hunger," the 23-year-old added. "Everyone else is busy trying to save their own lives." Syed said he was conscripted by a Rohingya armed group operating in the camps in June and sent to fight against the Arakan Army, a rebel group waging war against Myanmar's junta to carve out its own autonomous homeland. He and other Rohingya recruits were put to work as porters, digging ditches and fetching water for Myanmar troops as they bunkered in against advancing rebel troops. "They didn't give us any training," he said. "The military stay in the police stations, they don't go out." Sent on patrol to a Muslim village, Syed was able to give his captors the slip and cross back over into Bangladesh. He is one of around 14,000 Rohingya to have made the crossing in recent months as the fighting near the border has escalated, according to figures given by the UN refugee agency to the Bangladeshi government.

multiculturalism vs multiracial organizing & solidarity

Two from Novara Media

We Can’t Dismantle Capitalism Without Antiracist Solidarity: Cross-community organising is key.

by Sonali Bhattacharyya, Novara Media (9 August 2021)

My dad was a lecturer and a trade unionist, my mum a social worker, both from India via what is now Bangladesh. They saw no distinction between the racist abuse they experienced and that experienced by their colleagues who originated from Pakistan or the Caribbean. In their eyes, they were all being exploited under the same unjust system.

If you look at photos of iconic acts of resistance from that era – protests against the violent racism that led to the murder of Altab Ali, the police brutality faced by visitors to the Mangrove, or the picket lines in support of the strikers at Grunwick – you’ll see the working class in all its diversity.

How State-Sanctioned Multiculturalism Killed Radical Anti-Racism in Britain: Enter the rainbow nation.

by Ilyas Nagdee & Azfar Shafi, Novara Media (21 June 2022)

In this way, antiracism from above became entangled with the British state rather than presenting an opposition to it. Multiculturalism served as a means for the state to manage the contradictions of governing a racist society without meaningfully addressing them – instead enveloping them a dense vocabulary of ‘culture’, ‘ethnicity’, ‘diversity’, ‘identity’ and so on.

At worst, multiculturalism provided an alibi for racist state agencies. This contradiction was laid bare in a pamphlet by the National Convention of Black Teachers on policing and race training, highlighting how between 1981 and 1984: “[The] police training establishment implemented a number of new programmes. So that cadets, recruits and officers may now be taught multi-agency policing methods in the morning and commando work in the afternoon: multiculturalism in one course and the use of plastic bullets in the next: concepts of American-imported racism-awareness on the one hand and Northern Ireland style repression on the other.”

As multiculturalism was elevated to an ideology of governance, racism itself was emptied of its ideological substance. This was underlined by the response to policing following the 1981 uprisings, whereby the question of state racism which the police were enforcing became recast as a matter of racial attitudes among the police. More broadly, structural racism was refashioned as an issue of managing racist attitudes and interpersonal hostility. This in turn held the door open for apolitical and procedural ‘solutions’ to racism – such as the new racism awareness trainings prescribed by professional antiracists.

After the 1981 uprisings, such professionals were drawn from the ranks of organisations like the Racism Awareness Programme Unit (RAPU) to help in smoothing out the hard edges of the police force. Nearly 40 years later, their US counterparts were soothing the hearts of white America, as Robin DiAngelo’s White Fragility shot to the top of bestseller lists at the height of the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests. Labour leader Keir Starmer’s warmest gesture towards the protests was to prescribe unconscious bias training for his MPs. And before the dust had settled, race consultants on both sides of the Atlantic were polishing up their portfolios and waxing lyrical about their ‘anti-oppression workshops’ and ‘antiracist dinner parties’, like shameless antiracist ambulance chasers.

Qatar Workers Building 2022 World Cup Stadiums

The 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar was one of the most HIGHLY anticipated sporting events in the world in 2022, but the construction of the stadiums and infrastructure for the event has been mired in controversy due to concerns about worker exploitation and poor working conditions. According to reports, workers in Qatar have faced a range of issues, including low wages, long working hours, and inadequate living conditions. Many workers have been brought to Qatar from other countries, such as Nepal, India, and Bangladesh, and are often subject to exploitative recruitment practices and unsafe working conditions. There have also been reports of workers being denied access to basic necessities such as food, water, and medical care. In addition, many workers have been forced to work in extreme heat without adequate protection or breaks, putting their health and safety at risk. These poor working conditions have sparked international outrage and led to calls for FIFA and the Qatari government to take action to improve worker welfare. In response, Qatar has implemented a number of reforms, including the introduction of minimum wage laws and improvements to living conditions for workers. However, critics argue that these reforms do not go far enough and that more needs to be done to ensure that workers are treated fairly and that their rights are protected. They also point out that the problems facing workers in Qatar are part of a larger issue of labor exploitation and inequality that is prevalent in many parts of the world. In conclusion, the working conditions for workers involved in building the stadiums for the Qatar 2022 World Cup have been a cause for concern and controversy. While some progress has been made toward improving worker welfare, more needs to be done to address the root causes of exploitation and inequality in the global labor market.

Represent Your University in South Asia

Imagine walking into a bustling student fair in the heart of New Delhi or Colombo. The excitement in the air is palpable, with students eager to explore educational opportunities beyond their borders. As a university representative, you find yourself surrounded by some of the most motivated, career-driven individuals you’ve ever met. It’s no secret — South Asia is fast becoming a critical hub for international student recruitment.

From India to Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh, the region is home to a rapidly growing middle class, a youth population that is actively seeking global education, and governments that are increasingly investing in scholarships for international study. But how can universities effectively tap into this high-potential market?

This blog explores why universities should prioritize Represent Your University in South Asia, the unique benefits of the region, and actionable strategies to attract top talent.

Why South Asia? An Emerging Hub for International Education

A Rapidly Growing Student Population

South Asia is one of the largest sources of international students globally. As of 2024, the region has contributed over 1.5 million students to global higher education, with countries like India and Bangladesh leading the charge driven by rising middle-class incomes, the region’s deep-rooted cultural emphasis on education, and increasing access to government scholarships and financial aid.

For example, India alone sends over 750,000 students abroad each year, making it the second-largest source of international students in the world after China. Meanwhile, the country saw a 20% increase in students studying abroad between 2022 and 2023, underscoring its growing demand for international education.

Quality Education

Students from South Asia are not just looking for any educational experience; they are seeking world-class programs that will elevate their career prospects. Fields like STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and Business remain particularly popular, with 67% of South Asian students opting for these programs.

Moreover, students place significant importance on career outcomes. A survey by QS International found that 86% of South Asian students are motivated to study abroad by the prospect of securing better employment opportunities. For universities that can demonstrate career services, internship programs, and robust alumni networks, South Asia offers a fertile recruiting ground.

Untapped Potential: Emerging Markets in South Asia

While India is often seen as the focal point for international recruitment, it’s important not to overlook smaller, but rapidly growing markets in Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka.

Bangladesh: A Rising Star

Bangladesh is increasingly becoming a key player in the international student market. The country saw a 40% increase in students studying abroad between 2018 and 2023. With a young, tech-savvy population and a middle class, Bangladesh is poised to send even more students abroad in the coming years. Universities that can offer affordable education and financial aid packages will find a receptive audience.

Nepal: Strong Growth in Student Mobility

Nepal is often overshadowed by its larger neighbours, but it sent over 63,000 students abroad in 2023 alone . With the country’s increasing investment in the increasing number of students interested in international degrees, Nepal represents a key growth market for universities. In particular, students are drawn to countries like Australia and Canada due to favourable visa policies and post-study work options.

Key Strategies for Representing Your University in South Asia

1. Tailored Digital Marketing

Digital marketing is the cornerstone of any effective recruitment strategy in South Asia. With millions of young people active on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, universities can directly engage with prospective students through targeted online campaigns.

Consider the power of localized content. Research shows that students are more likely to engage with content that is personalized to their region. By creating region-specific landing pages, blogs, and videos that address the unique concerns of South Asian students — such as visa processes, scholarship opportunities, and career outcomes — universities can significantly boost engagement rates.

2. In-Person Recruitment and Education Fairs

Despite the rise of digital marketing, face-to-face engagement remains highly effective in South Asia. Many students and families in this region value direct interaction with university representatives. By attending education fairs and student recruitment events in major cities like New Delhi, Colombo, and Dhaka, universities can build trust and offer personalized guidance to students.

Statistics show that universities that actively participate in in-person events in South Asia see up to a 30% increase in applications from the region compared to those relying solely on digital efforts .

3. Leveraging Local Education Agents

Educatiplay a crucial role in international student recruitment, particularly in countries like India, Nepal, and Bangladesh, where students and parents rely heavily on trusted advisors for guidance. Partnering with local agents allows universities to expand their reach and provide prospective students with accurate, timely information about programs, application procedures, and visa requirements.

Working with reputable agents who have deep connections in the region can lead to higher conversion rates and greater student satisfaction. According to research from ICEF, universities that collaborate with education agents see 15–20% higher enrollment rates from South Asia .

4. Competitive Scholarships and Financial Aid

Affordaa significant concern for many South Asian students. 60% of prospective students from the region consider scholarships and financial aid as deciding factors when choosing a university . Offering tailored scholarships for students from India, Bangladesh, Nepal, andcan make a substantial difference in your recruitment efforts.

Universities can also explore partnerships with local governments or organizations that offer co-funded scholarships, ensuring that financial barriers don’t prevent talented students from accessing education.

Understanding the Future of South Asian Student Recruitment

1. The Role of Technology in Recruitment

As technology continues to evolve, so do the ways in which universities can reach South Asian students. Virtual campus tours, online info sessions, and AI-powered chatbots that provide real-time assistance to prospective students are becoming more prevalent. By adopting these technologies, universities can offer a more immersive and accessible recruitment experience, even for students in remote areas.

2. Visa and Immigration Support

Visa policies are a critical factor in the decision-making process for South Asian students. Universities that provide dedicated visa and immigration support will have a competitive edge. For instance, countries like Canada and Australia are attractive to South Asian students because of their student-friendly visa policies and post-study work opportunities.

Ensuring students are well-informed about visa processes and offering assistance, can reduce the anxiety and uncertainty that often accompany international applications.

Bangladeshi Protesters in Maldives Face Arrest, Deportation

Government Should Respect Migrant Workers’ Right to Peaceful Protest

Maldivian authorities say they plan to arrest and deport Bangladeshi nationals involved in organizing a peaceful protest in the southern atoll of G.Dh. Thinadhoo.

The July 25 protest was held, like many others across the region, after a recent crackdown by security forces on student protests in Bangladesh, with more than 200 people killed and thousands injured in the clashes that followed.

Minister of Homeland Security and Technology Ali Ihusaan accused the protesters of breaching a visa condition prohibiting migrants from engaging in any “political activities.” This condition violates the right to peaceful assembly under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which the Maldives is a party. The Human Rights Committee, the international expert body that provides authoritative interpretations of the covenant, has stated: “Everyone has the right of peaceful assembly: citizens and non-citizens alike,” including foreign nationals, documented and undocumented migrants, and asylum seekers.

Rights groups have called on the Maldives’ government to revoke the decision to arrest and deport Bangladeshi nationals involved in the protest and “uphold constitutional and international human rights conventions.”

The Maldives has the highest proportion of foreign migrant laborers in South Asia, primarily from Bangladesh and India, including tens of thousands of undocumented migrants. Migrant workers in the Maldives face a range of entrenched abuses from employers, including deceptive recruitment practices, wage theft, passport confiscation, unsafe living and working conditions, and excessive work demands, which may amount to forced labor and violate domestic and international law.

Why Need a Software Development Company?

A software development company is essential for businesses, organizations, and individuals who need custom software solutions, technical expertise, and innovative applications to meet specific needs. Here are some key reasons why software development companies are necessary:

1. Custom Solutions for Unique Needs

Off-the-shelf software may not always fit the specific requirements of a business. Software development companies create tailored solutions that align perfectly with an organization's processes, goals, and challenges, ensuring a more efficient and effective operation.

2. Expertise and Technical Knowledge

These companies have skilled professionals, including developers, designers, and project managers, who bring deep technical knowledge and experience to the table. They stay updated with the latest technologies and trends, ensuring the software developed is modern, secure, and scalable.

3. Cost-Effectiveness

Outsourcing software development to a dedicated company can be more cost-effective than hiring an in-house team. Companies can save on recruitment, training, infrastructure, and ongoing support costs while accessing high-quality development services.

4. Focus on Core Business

By outsourcing software needs, businesses can focus on their core operations without diverting attention and resources to managing software projects. The software development company handles the entire development process, from planning to deployment and maintenance.

5. Quality Assurance and Testing

Software development companies have dedicated quality assurance (QA) teams to rigorously test software for bugs, security vulnerabilities, and performance issues. This ensures the final product is reliable and performs well in real-world conditions.

6. Ongoing Support and Maintenance

Beyond initial development, these companies provide ongoing support, updates, and maintenance to ensure the software remains up-to-date, secure, and functional. This is crucial for adapting to changing business needs and technological advancements.

7. Innovation and Competitive Edge

Software development companies help businesses innovate by integrating new technologies such as AI, machine learning, blockchain, and cloud computing. This innovation can give businesses a competitive edge, enhance customer experiences, and open new market opportunities.

8. Scalability

As businesses grow, their software needs may change. Software development companies design scalable solutions that can evolve with the business, accommodating new features, users, and increased data without major overhauls.

The client needed a platform that would allow employers and job seekers to connect seamlessly, and my goal was to create a user-friendly site that worked flawlessly across all devices. One of the key challenges in this project was customizing the Jobster theme to suit the specific design and functionality needs of the client. I ensured that the design aligned with the client’s branding while creating a clean and intuitive interface for job postings, applications, and search functionalities. I employed advanced Elementor customizations to enhance the overall user experience and make navigation effortless. Optimizing the website for speed and SEO was crucial for increasing visibility in search engine results. I utilized techniques like image optimization, script minimization, and browser caching to improve loading times.
