Our purpose is to create positive narratives on Rohingya refugees in Malaysia and we would like to request your participation to discuss and highlight the current situation of refugees in Malaysia.
Since after COVID-19 pandemic outbreak throughout the world and Malaysian lockdown on 18th March 2020, refugees living in Malaysia are facing various hardships in getting a life-supporting job, a house rented to live in, food for survival and medical treatments.
