CNN's awarding-winning documentary on abuse of Rohingya refugees: The Forgotten People
|
CNN's Dan Rivers follows the story of hundreds of Rohingya refugees as they escape persecution in Myanmar and escape to Thailand.
According to the United Nations, the Rohingya have been oppressed for centuries, living in one of the poorest and most remote regions of Myanmar or Burma. They have been fighting an endless battle to be recognized as a distinct ethnic group and even struggling to gain basic citizenship for decades, despite living there for centuries.
Facing everything from land confiscation, to rape, forced labor and murder, the Rohingya have sought safe havens abroad. Now, CNN's Dan Rivers tracks their story from the islands of Southern Thailand, where new harsh allegations of abuse have surfaced, to parts of Indonesia.
