More than 260 Rohingya Refugees have arrived in malaysia to spice efforts to stop the police intercepted off the island of langkawi that reported to have been a safe a nearly 4 months hundreds of others are fed to be stranded functionally is live for us from kuala lumpur so what more do we know about this boat and the return to refugees who were on board. Well the Marine Police said they acted on a tip of they had received and together with a coast guard spotted the boat in the early hours of monday morning now they said they were preparing to turn the boat back out to International Waters but then discovered that the boat had been intentionally damaged in such a way that it was not sea worthy and the engine had also been damaged beyond repair so they detained those people instead now on board the boat they also found the body of the dead woman and there were about 50 people who jumped overboard who tried to escape from authorities but were detained when they swim ashore now we know that these people have now been taken to a Government Camp but we dont know much more about their conditions now and Rights Groups and refugee earing activists have said that there may in the last 2 months theyve said that there could possibly be 2 or 3 boats adrift in the andaman sea or the bay of bengal and this appears to be one of those boats now and theyve also expressed concerns about the conditions of these people on board those boats we saw in april pictures of a massive aged refugees being helped ashore when they arrived in bangladesh and survivors of that journey talked about how they had to they were dehydrated they suffered from starvation they were beaten by human traffickers and how there were at least 30 people who died in that journey no we dont know the conditions of these people whove been detained in malaysia but if past examples past instances are any example i any indication then we then they are very likely to have also gone through a pretty harrowing journey. So far as what is malaysias policy on and on undocumented migrants or refugees. Well malaysia doesnt recognise refugees is not a signatory to the Un Convention relating to the status of refugees now there are about 180000 refugees registered to the Un Refugee Agency here in malaysia and about half of that number are but they exist in a sort of grey area because they have no official status so theyre not allowed to work legally their children arent allowed to go to school and theyre vulnerable to exploitation now malaysias borders have also been closed since march 18th to prevent the curve to prevent the spread of the current virus so the government has also used that as justification for pushing back over attempting to push back their boats but this is not the 1st time that malaysias push back boats in 2015 when thousands of refugees were trying to escape myanmar by sea some of these Asian Countries including the lake pushed. It back out to International Waters and more recently in april a boat carrying about 200. 00 riffing refugees was not allowed to land now in recent weeks theres also been an increase in xenophobia sentiments against ring and other. Asylum seekers or undocumented migrants and the government has been criticized by Rights Groups for not only failing to tamp down on these sentiments but also to seemingly stoke it and weve had a minister issue state run reminding refugees that they have no status here and malaysian government has also been under criticism by Rights Groups for carrying out raids on undocumented migrants especially during append demick when there are more chances of spreading the virus when these people are brought into Detention Centers with less opportunity for physical distancing i think that foreign story there live from kuala lumpur.
