answer text <p>The detailed report by the Burma Human Rights Network is extremely concerning. We continue to press the Government of Myanmar for the full implementation of the Rakhine Advisory Commission (RAC) recommendations including citizenship, and to investigate any reports of discriminatory practices in regards to citizenship. We support clear and non-discriminatory pathways to citizenship, as well as longer term reform of the 1982 Citizenship Law, as the RAC recommendations set out.</p> more like this
