One kills, 16 rescue, a boat sinks in Bay of Bengal


Teknaf, Bangladesh:  A boat loading with nearly 17 boat-people was sung in the Bay of Bengal today at around 4:00 am while ferrying these people to a big cargo boat, which was anchoring in the Bay of Bengal, according to a fisherman from Shapuri Dip. 
“After loading 17 people, the ferry boat was starting and going to the anchoring cargo boat to send the people, but half an hour, the boat was suddenly sinking in the Bay of Bengal. One man was killed and the rest 16 people were rescued by other fishing boats.”

However, the big anchoring cargo boat in the Bay of Bengal with 151 boat-people including rescued 16 boat-people will leave for Malaysia again tonight.  The big Cargo boat collecting 135- boat-people from Mosh Khali, Cox’s Bazar and other places, said another fisherman from Shapuri Dip.

The Mazi (Leader) or broker collected Taka 20,000 per head. The Mazi is from Shita Forika village of Maungdaw, namely Nabi Hussain.  The leader bought an old cargo boat with Taka 300,000 and bought a new engine with 350,000, the fisherman more added.

“Most of the boat-people are Bangladeshi and some are Rohingya. In Teknaf, no young Bangladeshi as all of them trying to sail to Malaysia.”

Besides, on November 19, at night, another boat with 100 passengers had already left for Malaysia from Arza Khali village of Shapuri Dip.  It is still on the way to Malaysia, said a local elder from Teknaf.

A boat with 132 boat-people of Rohingyas including 15 women sank off the Shafuri Dip, On November 7 while going to Malaysia.

Rakhines pour poison in pond at Buthidaung


Buthidaung, Arakan State:  A group of Rakhine had poured poison in ponds, lakes, canals and tube walls at Oo Hla Pay, Saidaung and surrounded villages in Buthidaung on November 17 at night, according to village admin officials.

“A group of Rakhine had come to our village at night around 8:00pm for searching frog and toad when the village admin official asked them. But, the village admin official suspected their behavior and the official were alert on the night.”
“The Rakhine group stayed only two hours in the village and returned back.”
In the early morning, the villagers who went to fetch water from ponds, lakes, canals and tube walls, but the villagers saw something wrong in the pond and others as they were getting bad smell from the water, most of fishes were died, said a woman from Saidaung village.
“We informed to the village admin office about the situation, the village elders and officials checked around the pond, lake, canal and tube wall. They found some packets of poison near the water station.  The officials ordered not fetch water from the pond, lake and etc...”
“The village elders and officials informed to the concerned authority about the event, but no action was taken on it.”
The villagers poured all the water from the pond, lake and tube walls and ordered to the villagers to heat the water before to use. It is very difficult for villagers to get fire wood to boil the water, said a villager from Oo Hla Pay.
“On that day, five villages were effected with poison in the water and villagers fetched water from other villages which are not poisoning water.”

BGB continues arrest Rohingyas at Bangladesh-Burma border


Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh: Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) arrested Rohingya people continuously and pushing back Rohingyas to Burma who are trying to take shelter along Burma-Bangladesh border areas illegally, said a reliable source from Teknaf.
“BGB arrests them in different areas of border after being conducted operation.”

More than 28 Rohingyas were arrested from the illegal entry points of Gumdum, Taungbro and Balukhali while they were entering the Bangladesh without knowledge of Bangladesh government on November 20, BGB official said.

The officials investigated, why Rohingyas were crossing Burma-Bangladesh border after arresting and then pushed back to Burma at 5:00pm within same day.

On November 19, BGB arrested 13 Rohingyas from Gumdum and Taungbro  entery points while they were crossing Burma-Bangladesh border. They were pushed back to Burma after investigating.

Earlier, BGB also arrested 58-Rohingya from the different areas of border and pushed back to Burma, according to sources.

A BGB officer from Cox’s Bazar Battalion No. 17 said that more than 540 Rohingyas have been arrested by BGB in different raided since first week of November 2012.

A local well-wisher from Teknaf said that mostly Rohingya people come to Bangladesh from Burma because of persecution, harassment, arbitrary arrest, killing, torching houses and extorting money by the Burma’s security force and Rakhine people.

Rohingya leaders protest Suu Kyi’s comments on Rohingya


It is very unfortunate that Daw Aung San Kyi has made the situation more appalling by remaining long silent on the deadly violence against Rohingyas. If she spoke out in the beginning she could have saved many lives and destructions in Arakan. She knows the extent of damages and systematic destruction of Rohingya people and their villages, with the involvement of the government police, soldiers, Nasaka and other security forces, and the Rohingya people are completely unprotected, said Nurul Islam, the President of Arakan Rohingya National Organization (ARNO).

“Her silence or so-called neutrality cannot be justified because such standpoint encourages Rakhine extremists and the elements in the governments to carry on their campaigns of systematic racism, racial extermination and campaigns of genocide against the Rohingyas and Kamans.”
“Despite President Obama’s warning, on the day of his visit to Burma on November 19, Rakhine terrorists backed by NaSaKa torched the Rohingya houses in the village of Alora Dil under the Horsara (Zamatet) village tract in southern Maungdaw.”
Col. Aung Naing Oo, director, the Burma’s border security force (Nasaka), U Aung Myint soe, the district administration officer and Kaung Hla san, the district police officer went to the village today morning and survey the areas. The Nasaka personnel from the outpost is trying to arrest local Rohingya villagers over the allegation that “they themselves torched their houses and accused the security force and local Rakhine people, according to an elder from Maungdaw south.
“The Nasaka area commander called a meeting where he ordered to all Rohingya villagers to join at meeting, but the Rohingya were afraid to join the meeting for fear of arrest.”
“If Rakhines were in the dying-situation of Rohingyas, she would definitely speak out. That is why human rights activists alleged “it is complete hypocrisy that Aung San Suu Kyi doesn't stand by the victims of the ethnic cleansing in Burma.”
It is equally regrettable that she lied, either by choice or by ignorance, when she stated that there is still illegal immigration of people from Bangladesh into Arakan. On the contrary, expulsion of Muslim Rohingyas from Arakan into Bangladesh and other countries is a regular phenomenon. Even Daw Suu could have seen the Rohingya refugees in the vicinity of Delhi during her visit. Of course thousands of Rakhines and Mramas from Bangladesh have had entered and settled down in Arakan under state programme, the Nurul  Islam said.
International community is well aware that Arakan has turned into a hell, an open jail and a concentration camp for the Muslim population for decades where they are daily subjected to crimes against humanity. It is unthinkable how people from democratic Bangladesh chose to live in sub-human condition in anarchic Arakan. We would suggest Daw Su to make an international enquiry on the Rohingya Diasporas with a view to respecting and ensuring their ‘rights of return’ to their homeland of Arakan.
Besides, the successive military regimes since 1962 have been performing anti-Muslim campaign against the Rohingya community, so that the most of Buddhist people were motivated against Muslims and they were convinced; the  Rohingyas are the British period settlers ignoring their settlement and contribution since AD 788, said Habibur Rahman , an ARNO Vice-chairman .
“There's a lot of illegal crossing of the border still going on that they have got to put a stop this, said Daw Suu in interview with NDTV in New Delhi, recently. This is a false and fabricated statement. It is only her masters’ voice i.e. to please Rakhine community. Who will go to hell from haven? There (in Burma) is no security of life and property, lack of chastity of women folks, restrictions of movement, marriage, livelihood, health care, and education, standard of living and freedom,  in comparing of Bangladesh. Besides, there are many kinds of law enforcement agencies, how can strangers enter Burma from Bangladesh and how will it survive.  In every village, government created some of collaborators, who have to send every report what is the occurring in the village.”
The rule of law can’t be established in Arakan especially in Muslim areas, until the existence of Rakhine people in the police and judiciary, in state of these people, other nationalities will be substituted. Her statement is as a politician, looking for 2015 elections, ignoring unity, security and prosperity of next generation. Statesman sees the prosperity of next generation.
"We appreciate Bangladesh's dismissal of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi's comments of Rohingyas being illegal Bangladeshi immigrants and request the government of Bangladesh to take an active role in finding a permanent solution to the Rohingya crisis through partnering with the OIC and the regional actors. Otherwise the Rohingya crisis not only will have a negative consequence on Bangladesh, but it could have a ripple effect to the region," according to Ronnie, a Human Rights activist and a member of ARNO.

The Burmese monks who preach intolerance against Muslim Rohingyas

Reforms in Burma have revealed a sectarian divide between Buddhists and ethnic Muslims whose villages are being destroyed in brutal clashes with echoes of similar clashes in the Balkans, parts of Africa and Northern Ireland.

The Muslim Rohingya minority are being targeted by Burmese Buddhists and driven from their villages in their thousands. Their plight was highlighted during his recent visit by the US President Barack Obama, but hopes that Burma's most prominent civil rights campaigner Aung San Suu Kyi may support their cause have so far proved fruitless.

Who Else Could the Culprit Be But the King (Thein Sein) Himself? | Part 2

With a view to exposing the intentions of Muu Zaw, let me share more on his posts. Look at below! 
Dear Friends,

You don’t know!

And I don’t know either how the democratic activists and political parties will take it.

We will not hold any talks with them on this topic.

Besides, we will not accept Rohingyas at all. No matter who says what, we don’t sympathize them even on the humanitarian ground or whoever says whatever, we will not accept them. The people who say “Accept them, Sympathize them,” -do not live on this land.

We want to send them to America and Ban Ki Moon’s country! Will they accept them?

So, he is basically saying is 'those who sympathize them, do not to live on this land!!" That Muu Zaw deserves to be kicked on his face with the back heel! He is of mind that only he owns this land. I cannot say whether or not he thinks, when they sing “This is our country and this is our land” in the national anthem, that military dictators own the country and since he is one of them, he, too, owns the country. Even I start to feel insecure for myself when I was reading and collecting these posts and papers. After all, it is the land owned by him! It cannot either be said that he is not coming with the military from behind! Here is one more example on his posts:

No matter what our intentions and standpoints were, now we all need to be united. The problems that we are facing today in Rakhine state are not just racial and religious problems but it is turning into the form of an invasion by a foreign country. According to the current situation, declaring act 144 and giving shoot at sight orders are just to protect Rakhine people’s lives and done in the best way by the government. In this situation, if the government doesn’t know how to handle the situation effectively, they will be blamed for the genocides as if they themselves are doing it. (Now, if we look carefully to the International Media, we will find they are all keeping quiet. In rare news by CNA, only the shootings of the security guards are unfairly written and the reasons behind all these are written very less. I doubt whether they are masterminding it with the international networks.)

Keeping ideological differences aside, we urge you all friends to stand with the government together at this time. They may attack us through humanitarian and religious issues. Now we all need to show foreign countries that we are not creating any religious and racial tensions but fighting against those who are invading us unlike what CNA is trying to portray.

We cannot call Bomu Zaw Htay with any other name but with Nazi Zaw Htay if we look into his writings here. Besides the postings on his facebook which stimulate racial hatred, more than a quarter of postings regarding Rakhine state including fighting and killings can be found. In some posts, he has referred to the president’s office website. The news of the fighting and killings and the number of the deaths are mentioned in detail in the president’s office website.

Dare Bomu Zaw Thay who has come from the military academy that follows the orders with no question do all that by himself without the permission of the president or that of a his senior official? POINT TO BE NOTED!!

To be continued.

Myanmar forces supported anti-Muslim attacks| Rights group

BANGKOK - A leading international rights group today accused Myanmar security forces of supporting some of the brutal anti-Muslim violence last month that forced 35,000 people from torched homes. The allegations come one day before President Barack Obama visits after a year of unprecedented democratic reforms in the South-east Asian country.
Human Rights Watch said soldiers in some parts of western Rakhine state also tried to stop Buddhist attacks and protect Muslim civilians, known as Rohingya. But the group said the government needs to do much more to protect the stateless minority, who are denied citizenship because they are considered foreigners from Bangladesh.
The New York-based rights group also released new satellite imagery detailing the extensive destruction of several Muslim areas, including a village attacked by Buddhist mobs armed with spears and bows and arrows where adults were beheaded and women and children killed.
Violence in June, and again late last month, has killed around 200 people on both sides and displaced more than 110,000 more, the vast majority of them Muslims. 
"The satellite images and eyewitness accounts reveal that local mobs, at times with official support, sought to finish the job of removing Rohingya from these areas," Human Rights Watch's Asia director Brad Adams said in a statement.
"The central government's failure to take serious action to ensure accountability for the June violence fostered impunity, and makes it responsible for later attacks not only when security forces were directly involved, but also when they weren't," he said.
There was no immediate comment from Myanmar's government on the charges. But The Associated Press has interviewed victims in Rakhine state who gave similar accounts, accusing security forces of taking part in the violence or of doing little to stop it.
On Friday, the United Nations announced it had received a letter from Myanmar President Thein Sein pledging to consider new rights for the Rohingya for the first time and condemning the "senseless violence" that has battered Rakhine state. But the letter stopped short of a full commitment that citizenship and other new freedoms would be granted, and gave no timeline.
The White House says Obama will press the matter Monday with Mr Thein Sein, along with demands to free remaining political prisoners as the nation transitions to democracy after a half-century of military rule that ended last year.
The UN has called the Rohingya - who are widely reviled by the Buddhist majority in Myanmar - among the most persecuted people on Earth.
Myanmar denies the Rohingya citizenship, even though many of their families have lived in Myanmar for generations. The government considers them to be illegal migrants from Bangladesh, but Bangladesh also rejects them, rendering them stateless.
The UN estimates that 800,000 Rohingya live in Myanmar, where they face heavy-handed restrictions: They need permission to marry, have more than two children and travel outside of their villages.

Briefing: Myanmar's Rohingya crisis | IRIN

More than 100,000 Rohingya have been displacedBANGKOK, 16 November 2012 (IRIN) - Five months after communal violence erupted in Myanmar's Rakhine State, the plight of the 800,000 Muslim Rohingya there has worsened: Renewed violence in late October left more than 100,000 displaced, according to the government. 
Clashes between ethnic Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims in June 2012 razed homes and places of worship in northern parts of the state, killed an estimated 80 and displaced tens of thousands more. The government imposed a night-time curfew and declared a state of emergency in six townships, including Maungdaw and Buthidaung near the border with Bangladesh. 
Who are the Rohingya? 
The Rohingya are a Muslim minority ethnically related to the Bengali people living in neighbouring Bangladesh's Chittagong District. They form 90 percent of the one million people living in the north of Rakhine State in Myanmar, which borders Bangladesh and includes the townships of Maungdaw, Buthidaung and Rathedaung. While residents in northern Rakhine State are predominantly Muslim, ethnic Rakhines - primarily Buddhist - are the majority of the state's three million residents. In 1989 the military-led government changed the state's colonial name of Arakan to Rakhine. 
The government lists 135 national "races" (a translation from Burmese for "people type") classified by ethnicity and dialect, of which the biggest groups are Burman, Kachin, Kayah, Karen, Chin, Mon, Rakhine and Shan. 
Myanmar's indigenous Burman accounted for 69 percent of the country's population, according to the last official census of 1983. 
What is the government's position? 
Some Rohingya have been in Myanmar for centuries while others arrived in recent decades; regardless of how long they have been in country, Burmese authorities consider them undocumented immigrants and do not recognize them as citizens or as an ethnic group. 
As a result, Rohingya are de jure stateless, according to the 1982 Burmese Citizenship law, and are viewed as a source of instability in the country. 
In July, Burmese President Thein Sein shocked human rights groups by saying Rohingyas should be placed in UN-sponsored refugee camps, while at the same time offering to resettle Rohingyas in any other country willing to accept them. 
"Burma will take responsibility for its ethnic nationalities but it is not at all possible to recognize the illegal border-crossing Rohingyas who are not an ethnic [group] in Burma," said a statement on the President's Office website. 
Conditions inside the camps are poor
At the same time, the President's Office announced on 31 October that it will continue to "take actions against individuals and organizations responsible for the conflict" to prevent further violence, and that investigations are under way. 
What are the roots of inter-communal tensions? 
Muslims living along the coast of Rakhine State can be traced back to the eighth and ninth centuries when Arab traders settled in the area. Muslims and Buddhists have historically lived on both sides of the Naaf river, which marks the current border with Bangladesh. The British annexed the region after an 1824-26 conflict and encouraged migration from India, including that of labourers, merchants and administrators. Since independence in 1948, successive Burmese governments have considered this migration illegal. 
Without citizenship, Rohingya cannot legally leave the townships of Rakhine State and, since 1994, must request special permits (often available only through bribes) to marry, which restricts Rohingya couples to having two children, a limitation other ethnic groups do not face. Common-law couples are vulnerable to prosecution. The government includes the Rohingya in official family registries and gives them temporary registration cards. However, such documents do not mention place of birth and are not considered as evidence of birth in Myanmar. 
As a result of statelessness, suspicion, and deep-seated hatred, the Rohinyga continue to face persecution and are subject to discrimination through targeted restrictions (like family size) and requirements (unpaid forced labour for security forces). 
So divisive is their status in Myanmar that even pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi remains largely silent on their plight, out of fear of losing popular support, while the government of the reform-minded Burmese president could well face a major public backlash if it were unilaterally to grant them citizenship, experts warn. 
How many are displaced? 
In June 2012 violence between ethnic Rakhine and Rohingya residents following the alleged rape of an ethnic Rakhine woman by a group of Muslim men displaced nearly 75,000, mostly Rohingya; most are still in nine overcrowded camps in Sittwe township, the capital of Rakhine State. After relative calm, violence resurged in October, spread into a larger area and displaced an additional 35,000, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in Yangon. 
This displacement is on top of the estimated more than 200,000 Rohingya who have fled earlier crackdowns and discrimination, seeking refuge in Bangladesh, where they are also seen as illegal migrants or elsewhere in the region. 
What is happening now? 
Sporadic reports of violence continue to be reported from Rakhine State where the situation remains tense. There is a heavy security presence in Rakhine State with locals fearing for their safety should the armed forces leave. Most of the displaced people have little or no access to food and shelter. 
The US-based rights group, Human Right Watch (HRW), released satellite pictures taken on 9 and 25 October that show extensive destruction of homes and other property in Kyaukpyu District, a predominantly Rohingya Muslim area. More than 800 homes and buildings were destroyed, with many Rohingya fleeing by sea towards Sittwe, 200km to the north. Non-Rohingya Muslims have also been displaced, raising fears violence could spread to other parts of Myanmar. Muslims form some 4 percent of the estimated 59 million population. 
Can humanitarians get in? 
Aid workers report not being able to get travel authorization to reach the displaced outside of Sittwe. 
Many wonder if they will ever return home
More than 100,000 people were displaced across eight Rakhine townships (Kyaukpyu, Kyauktaw, Minbya, Mrauk-U, Myebon, Pauktaw, Ramree and Rathedaung) 
Blocked from reaching affected communities, the medical aid group,Médecins sans Frontières (MSF), has pulled out of Rakhine State, where it has worked for two decades, after its staff received death threats. 
In June MSF suspended most health programmes, leaving thousands of patients across Rakhine State cut off from medical services. 
Monsoon rains interrupted humanitarian and development assistance in Rakhine State near Sittwe; the World Food Programme (WFP), the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and a number of NGOs resumed some activities in September. 
That month the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) announced an agreement with the government to open an office in Rakhine State, but following protests from Buddhist monks, the government rescinded permission. 
Who is helping, and what is missing? 
In response to the June clashes, the government has been providing food, shelter, non-food items and medical supplies to internally displaced persons (IDP), with the support of the international community. In July an inter-agency plan was launched to provide assistance to an estimated 80,000 people affected by the crisis. 
The Rakhine Response Plan estimated it will take some US$32.5 million to cover basic emergency needs until the end of the year for an estimated 80,000 displaced. 
According to the UN database which records international humanitarian aid, the Financial Tracking Service, and not-yet-recorded recent donor announcements, nearly $24 million has been pledged or contributed to humanitarian assistance in Rakhine State this year, including $4.8 million from the UN Central Emergency Fund (set up in 2005 to provide more timely humanitarian assistance to those affected by natural disaster and armed conflict globally). 
In response to an increase in displacement, a revised plan is expected to be launched shortly to cover emergency needs in Rakhine State until June 2013.

Breaking News: A HOT GENOCIDE AGAINST ROHINGYAS ON ITS WAY I M.S. Anwar

20th November 2012 Maung Daw, Arakan- Immediately after President Obama had left Burma, a masterminded attack against Rohingyas at Honssara (Du-Thandar), Laambaguna (Zaw-Ma-Tat) village tract in Maung Daw was carried out yesterday. In the attack, around nine houses of Rohingyas have been blazed and razed. As an immediate response to Obama’s call to stop the violence against Rohingyas and in disagreement to his using the term “Rohingya,” Rakhine Extremists Leaders, Skinned-Head Fascists in Saffron and local authority together conspired the attack so as to become easier for them to carry out a new genocide against these people.

“Yesterday, immediately after Obama had departed the country, Rakhine Extremist Leaders from Yangon directed some Rakhine extremists in Maung Daw to resume the violence against Rohingyas to show their disagreement to Obama. Some of the Rakhine extremists who instigated the violence in Maung Daw yesterday in cooperation with the NAY-MYAY-MU (Regional of Head of NaSaKa-Border Security Force) of Southern Maung Daw include:

1) U Hla Myint- a rich Rakhine figure and the owner of Mortgage Business Shop No.4, 
2) U Khin Maung Shwe (name might be wrongly spelled)- Judge in the Court of Maung Daw Township, 
3) USDP Maung Daw Secretary- U Hla Tun Phru and other three prominent Rakhine Extremists Figures.

They altogether went to a Rakhine village called Kaing Gri located nearby the violence hit Rohingya village pretending as if they were on a picnic trip to the village. Subsequently, the houses of Rohingyas were torched in the Rohingya village mentioned above. The houses of the following people were among the houses razed.

1) Azimullah S/o Shaab Meah 
2) Ali Meah S/o Ghani 
3) Kumsuma Khatu D/o Ghani 
4) Shakayr S/o Ali Meah

Later, NAY-MYAY-MU who was bribed and coaxed by the Rakhine extremists together with KUAY-KAY-YE-MU (NaSaKa Adminstrator in Maung Daw) blamed Rohingyas BACK that they had torched their own houses. Therefore, they ordered NaSaKa to arrest any 100 Rohingya men from the nearby villages no matter whether they are guilty or not. There is a shoot-at-sight declared to those Rohingya men who resist or refused to be arrested” said a prominent Rohingya elder on the condition of anonymity.

There have been conflicting reports coming out about the number of Rohingyas arrested till date. Some say 10 Rohingya men have been arrested and some say 15.

-Therefore, is the targeting innocent Rohingyas the Justice in Burma just because Obama called to stop the violence and used the term Rohingya?

-Is the blaming Rohingyas back the Justice in Burma after burning down their houses?

-Is trying to arrest or kill Rohingyas for nothing the Justice in Burma?

-Or what is this?

The case is rested upon you to decide!!

Arakan News Updates: Maung Daw Police Destabilizing the Region | M.S. Anwar

19th November 2012 Maung Daw, Arakan- Police in Maung Daw led by U Aung Kyaw Kan, a high ranking officer and the team leader of Nay-Tin (Region Control Team), have been attempting to destabilize the Region for days now. They have been arresting many innocent people for nothing. It has started since the day on which a so-called Rohingya drug trafficker called Abdu Zabbar (in 50s) was arrested by the NaSaKa (Border Security Force) in Nay Myay (Region) 6 in Maung Daw.


"The NaSaKa in Nay Myay 6 said that they recently arrested a Rohingya drug trafficker. According to the NaSaKa, the trafficker said upon investigation that he used to traffick drugs in partnership with a person called Salim (a Rohingya) from Quarter 5, Maung Daw. The irony is that without confirming who the person called Salim is, the Police is arresting everyone with the name, Salim from the said village. So far, they have arrested 6 people with the name. The way the Police raid the village everyday to arrest Salims is like warring against Rohingyas. So, it automatically stimulates neighboring Rakhine extremists to resume violence against Rohingyas.

But the shocking thing is the person said to be arrested was known to be a PUPPET of the government" said a Rohingya elder from Maung Daw on the condition of anonymity.

Since Maung Daw Police is trying to re-create the violence against Rohingyas in Maung Daw using a made up case, Rohingyas are afraid of becoming victims again. Therefore, Rohingya community appeal to the President to take against these Police officers who have been oppressing them for decades. These Police officers have been in Maung Daw for more than 10 years without any transfers to other parts of the country. At the same time, Rohingyas request to the international communities to help them out as they are still the victims of the targeted violence and severe persecutions though their situation is made to look calm externally.
