Global spotlight
The Rohingya crisis was thrown into the international spotlight this month when thousands of the minority group, together with Bangladeshi migrants, were rescued on Southeast Asian shores after fleeing by boat.
It has drawn attention to the dire conditions and discrimination faced by the roughly one million Rohingya in western Myanmar, a group widely seen as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.
The Dalai Lama, perhaps the world's most famous refugee, added from his exile in the Indian Himalayas that it was not enough to ask how to help the Rohingya.
