The Forgotten Humanitarian Crisis In Myanmar

We highlight the worsening humanitarian crisis in Myanmar in the Rakhine State and beyond with Shinjiro Murata, General Director, MSF Japan. As the world has been overwhelmed with crisis after crisis, we in Malaysia seem to have forgotten that we are witnessing one right at our doorstep. Shinjiro speaks to Philip See about how the situation has been evolving and why it is so desperately important for us and the international community to take action.
