Myanmar Repatriates from Malaysia Voice Their Experiences

 


I worked there. It has been a long time. I have been there since 1999. Because of various issues and troubles, I ended up getting arrested and returned home. Many of our fellow compatriots are still left behind in prisons and detention centres over there. Please do your best to help bring them home. It has been so long since they were separated from their motherland, and so many people are suffering emotionally. Because we neither know English nor Chinese, we faced all kinds of hardships. Only when you go to someone else’s country, and you can speak their language and take the time to learn their culture, will the people of Malaysia truly warm up to you. Just as we would expect people coming to our country to learn our language, when you are in another country, please learn to adapt and live in harmony with their culture. That is what I would like to urge everyone to do. We were arrested, kept in camps and handed over to the Myanmar Embassy. The Myanmar Embassy then arranged for us to be brought back to Myanmar. Even if we reported something here, we could still be arrested. Whether it was true or not, in this country, there are permits that are valid for one year and permits that are valid for three years. We are allowed to stay only after renewing those permits. Since we had not paid taxes in their country, we were arrested under Malaysia’s immigration laws. We are happy to be able to return like this. We want to see our families, as well as our children, spouses, brothers and sisters, and grandparents whom we have been separated from. We know the Head of State helped us in this way, and that this effort involved not just one person but thousands, spending millions of kyats. We can feel and understand how much effort has been made to help us and what has been done for us. We are grateful to everyone. We would like to thank the State leaders, the immigration authorities, the Navy, the engineering units, and everyone else involved.
