The Meeting called upon the Government of Myanmar to take all necessary measures to restore peace and inter-communal harmony through dialogue and a comprehensive reconciliation process concerning all segments of the Myanmar society community. This includes tackling the rise of hate speech and the spread of propaganda by right wing extremists against the Rohingya population. The Meeting urged the authorities of Myanmar to take concrete steps to prevent the further deterioration of the humanitarian situation in Rakhine State and to ensure the right of each individual to live and move without fear and persecution based on their religion or ethnicity. The Meeting welcomed the recommendations of the Rakhine Advisory Commission headed by Mr. Kofi Annan, and urged the Government of Myanmar to take concrete steps towards their earliest implementation. The Meeting called on Member States to provide support for the implementation of these recommendations with a view to finding a comprehensive and inclusive solution to the challenges in Rakhine State. The Meeting invited OIC Member States to join the efforts of the international community towards lifting all restrictions on freedom of movement in Rakhine State and ensuring an inclusive and transparent citizenship verification process that leaves no individual unregistered nor hinders their access to essential social services, including education and health care. The Meeting expressed concerns over the huge Rohingya influx towards Bangladesh and its humanitarian and security consequences for the Government of Bangladesh. The Meeting expressed appreciation to the member states who have taken immediate action and deliver humanitarian aid to the camps in Bangladesh. The Meeting further urged all member states to extend the necessary support to Bangladesh to enable it to face the flow of refugees into its territories. The Meeting acknowledged the efforts by Member States which had provided humanitarian and development assistance for the Rohingya people and encouraged all States to formulate development projects that will provide education, health services and vocational training that will benefit all persons in Rakhine State, regardless of ethnicity or religion. --More 13:00 LOCAL TIME 10:00 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w484935
