TOKYO: The international community needs to focus more on repatriation of Rohingya to their place of origin in Rakhine State instead of focusing only on their food, shelter and healthcare issues, says a Japanese South Asian affairs expert.
“We have to work on how to bring them back to their original country,” Ryohei Kasai, a visiting researcher at the Centre for South Asian Studies, Gifu Women’s University, told Bangladesh news agency UNB.
