Rohingyas find uneasy refuge in Indonesia | DW News

In recent months, Indonesia has seen an increase in the number of migrants arriving on its shores. Rohingya refugees have been fleeing overcrowded camps in Bangladesh. They’ve been living there for years, having escaped violent persecution in Myanmar. Despite not recognizing them as refugees, Indonesia has provided some temporary shelter. But coastal communities in West Aceh are struggling to cope. And, as DW’s Ferdinand Himawan reports, the mainly Muslim Rohingya refugees are facing increasing hostility from some of their fellow Muslims. DW spoke to Ann Maymann, the UNHCR's Representative in Indonesia.
