ollowing the triumph of Nobel laureate and de-
mocracy advocate Aung San Suu Kyi from the
opposition in the November elections last year,
the new Myanmar Parliament has held its first
session recently along with the military junta.
In the history of the country, this is the first time that there are no
Muslim deputies in the country's Parliament. Although it is inspiring
that a democratic Parliament is established after more
than 50 years of military rule, Suu Kyi's omis-
sion of the Rohingya during the election pro-
cess is conspicuous. Considering that the
junta is still a part of the government, such
conduct may be regarded as temporary only
so as not to overstep the limits.
However, the weight of the junta that al-
lows it to block legislation in Parliament is still
a concern. The junta's governing of ethnic issues
is the major obstacle to any favorable decision
that can be made for the Rohingyas.
Discrimination against the
Rohingyas continues to persist as
140,000 of them live in concentration
camps, and 1.3 million have no
access to humanitarian aid.
