Khaing Thu Kha, the spokesperson of the ULA/AA, today posted a letter heading as “ULA’s Response to the Report of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.”
The front page of the report said;
“Although the OHCHR-Myanmar Team had contacted us to receive answers to interview questions, the ULA regrets that the report does not adequately include the facts, figures, statements, and responses to ensure a balanced representation.”
The report continued that the recent UN report significantly undermines the efforts of the ULA to foster trust and social cohesion among the diverse communities in Arakan. The report’s underlying motive is to increase blame and allegations against the ULA/AA rather than to uncover the truth or promote the interests of the suffering communities in Arakan.
In light of upcoming conferences in New York (September) and Doha (December), it appears that UN reports have been influenced by self-serving interest groups, prioritizing narrow agendas over working towards a better future for all peoples in Arakan.
The neglect of our responses to the interview questions further diminishes our trust in the UN’s reporting mechanism in Arakan, especially given the complex situation on the ground. We strongly urge key responsible persons and OCHR’s Myanmar Team to seek more accountable and balanced reporting on Arakan.
The current situation in Arakan remains highly fragile, with increasing activities of Islamic militant groups along the border with Bangladesh. We are deeply concerned that the UN’s reports, if not accurate and impartial, could inadvertently escalate tensions, fueling insecurity and instability in the region.
