…and now the ethnic Rohingya are the forgotten people ..
- Hardly! We can’t switch on our tv sets or open any part of the media without having them in our faces!
Needless to say, almost, the latest bleat comes from the Jakarta Globe.
Both the major English-language papers in Indonesia tend to sound more like they are published in Westchester, New York.
=======

That county is home to countless American left-libs, who voted overwhelmingly for The Manchurian and still love him. They also love to prattle on behalf of illegal immigrants, heedless of the fact that the burden of the crimmigrant invasion of the USA falls on working-class folk.
00000000000000
BTW, I’ve been there, some years back, and had the ‘pleasure’ of being a guest in a typical Westchester home. As a guest, I politely bit my tongue while the elitist pro-parasite drivel was spouted, until at last, still polite, it was impossible not to refute some of their nonsense views.
The remainder of the visit was stilted, one might say!
Westchester is plutocrat territory, so it’s maybe no surprise that the JG, owned by a plutocrat family, echoes those supercilious prejudices.
This week it’s poor Aung San Suu Kyi, of Myanmar, who’s getting bashed, because she represents the views of her people. A year or two ago, left-libs were adoring her, because she was alleged to represent the views of her people.
She was, they proclaimed, the democratic choice to lead Myanmar, if only those awful generals would heed the people’s voice.

- ———————-
Ms. Kyi is not being shrill, but she obviously sees nothing amiss with this majority opinion, so she’s not bowing to overseas pressure to flout the democratic will. She clearly doesn’t want Rohingya any more than most of her countrymen and women do.
This may be due to their Muslim creed, but maybe not!
Is it not strange that they are just as unpopular in overwhelmingly Muslim Bangladesh? And not especially welcome in Muslim-majority Malaysia. Nor in Indonesia, which has nevertheless reluctantly succumbed to UN nagging (and Qatari largesse Emir orders $50m for Jakarta to host Rohingyas) and allowed a lot of Rohingya in, despite past experience of their presence…
…and despite the fact that, as senior figures in Jakarta are undoubtedly aware, like most so-called ‘asylm’-seekers, most of them are phoneys – Ms Bishop said Indonesia’s director-general of multilateral affairs, Hasan Kleib, told her one boat carrying 600 people had 400 Bangladeshis aboard. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-05-23/bishop-says-most-of-7000-stranded-people-are-labourers/6491836
What does the Jakarta man-in-the-street think?
I haven’t seen any poll results, though the JG is running a survey,” keep ’em out or let ’em in, ” but given its moneyed readership, that is hardly going to represent public opinion.
(You can help skew it if you wish, just go to the JG link above and you’ll see it next to the article –
– enjoy a vote!)
================================
Meanwhile we remain in the dark about people’s real feelings, though they probably are not what the JG’s academics think.
But many will have been confused by the strident sectarian rhetoric.
The IslamoNazis here, and many less rabid outfits too, have been beating the ‘Islamic solidarity’ drum! One might wish they’d demand that all those wasters boarding boats on the Mediterranean coast come this way too, instead of attempting illegally to invade Europe.
After all, the financial burden undertaken would quickly be alleviated by Qatar. Nearly fifty million dollars already pledged for ‘Rohingya’ crimmigrants in Indonesia, and there’s lots more oil in them thar wells!
But Indonesian readers should consider carefully what they’re letting themselves in for.
I suspect people here have more concern for their country than most Swedes, who refuse to read the writing on the wall. ‘The Notion That All Immigrants Feel Gratitude? Something of a Myth!’

Perfect idea.
Rockall would suit them.
A week on there and they’d be begging for a flight home.
We have quite a few islands, unoccupied, easily guarded by armed patrol boats.
If the UN sticks its nose in, bite it off.

Australia had some UN vultures pecking away at the illegal immigration issue a few years ago.
Better off out of the UN and all its spin-offs.

There’s an island in Scotland, in Loch Lomond, I think, which was made uninhabitable for years by chemical warfare experiments.
Any suggestions for its use?
