Malaysia, Bangladesh among regional partners sending peace mission to Myanmar

DHAKA (Reuters) -Malaysia, Bangladesh and some regional partners will send a joint delegation to Myanmar to push for peace and humanitarian aid for Rohingya refugees, the Southeast Asian nation's Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said on Tuesday. Bangladesh shelters more than 1 million Rohingya refugees in camps in its southeastern district of Cox's Bazar, the world's largest refugee settlement. Anwar's comments came at the start of a three-day visit by Bangladesh's interim head, Nobel peace laureate Muhammad Yunus, to Malaysia.
