00:00 27 ethnic Rohingya refugees who were left in temporary camps in the Aceh-Barat regional office complex

00:09 left the camp on Saturday morning, June 1, around 4.30 p.m. WEST INDONESIA time.

00:15 United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees or UNHCR report on Monday, June 3.

00:21 This is the second time that Rohingya refugees in West Aceh left the refugee camp.

00:26 Previously, on Friday, May 31, as many as 16 refugees had left the camp first.

00:33 UNHCR protection associate Faisal Rahman said,

00:36 his side with the police are trying to find the existence of 43 Rohingya refugees who fled.

00:44 UNHCR has also tried to contact the refugees by phone, but have not received an answer.

00:50 This raises concerns, considering the condition of the Rohingya who were in the temporary camp of the West Aceh regional office complex.

00:57 Not fully recovered from the trauma of the tragedy of the sinking of the refugee ship when trying to enter the Aceh region in March 2024.

01:07 "That's what we always remember about them too.

01:12 Because then we will definitely be out of our reach, so we don't know what their situation is like,

01:18 what we can do for them.

01:20 This is our own responsibility in that matter.

01:23 We always remember not to make decisions that harm ourselves or endanger ourselves.

01:32 Like earlier, we can take advantage of others, take advantage of them."

01:38 On the other hand, the International Law Academy, Faculty of Law, the University of Siakwala, West Aceh,

01:46 and the Rohingya researcher, Aditya Rifaldi,

01:50 assess that the Rohingya refugees in West Aceh who left the refugee camp in a hurry

01:55 were not caused by the pressure from the surrounding community.

01:59 "If the question is whether it was the push of the community, no, I don't think so.

02:05 The next question is, what is the factor?

02:08 So, from me, the opportunity to free oneself is very high.

02:14 It is very, very, very unfortunate.

02:17 We, maybe from the security side, I don't want to say that they are not at their maximum level,

02:23 but maybe there are many things that need to be improved."

02:26 Aditya added that there needs to be concrete cooperation between the security, UNHCR and IOM

02:36 throughout the Rohingya refugee camp locations in Aceh,

02:39 so that similar incidents will not happen again.

02:42 The escape of Rohingya refugees from the camp is a new conflict,

02:47 especially later when the refugees are in close contact with the local community,

02:51 where the culture and norms are different.

02:54 From Aceh, Aceh, Aprezel Rahmat,
