Shafaqna English- Hostile social media content, disinformation campaigns, and a petition calling for their expulsion: in Malaysia, a wave of hate speech has been targeting Muslim Rohingya refugees.
The rising hostility has already led to the eviction of more than 100 people from a village and forced the temporary closure of schools serving refugee children.
For a long time, Malaysia was considered a safe country for Rohingya Muslims fleeing persecution in predominantly Buddhist Myanmar.
