The representatives of the Commonwealth Parliament Association have met in the capital at the 63rd CPC.
Some delegates were of the view that there was no quick fix to the crisis when approached by bdnews24.com on Monday.
Foreign Minister AH Mahmood Ali highlighted the Rohingya crisis on Sunday during the plenary session of the conference.
More than 600,000 Rohingyas have taken shelter in Bangladesh in the last two and a half months fleeing persecution in Myanmar’s Rakhine State. More than 400,000 Rohingyas had already been living here as refugees.
Myanmar government has not responded to Bangladesh’s call to take back its citizens, but in the face of criticism from the international community, it has pledged to take them back but still appears reluctant.
The country has spent a lot on making the arrangements. This is a gesture of sheer generosity. Bangladesh and its people must be hailed for that, he said.
He asserted that Rohingyas were being subjected to genocide in Rakhine.
The British lawmaker appealed to the nations across the globe to unite to put pressure on the Myanmar authorities.
Every nation must speak for Bangladesh at the United Nations, he added.
Support from the UN and Commonwealth are essential to solving the crisis, he went on.
People are being driven off from their land and living as refugees at somewhere else’s. This is unacceptable; he said suggesting creating a “safe zone” for Rohingyas in Myanmar in an echo of Bangladesh's proposal.
Banadzem stressed implementation of the recommendations made by the Kofi Annan Commission and the five points suggested by Bangladesh.
Philemon Falaga, whip of state parliament of South Africa, expressed similar concerns and called on the Myanmar government to give the Rohingyas their due rights.
