The Rohingya people of Myanmar are experiencing what has been called a campaign of ethnic cleansing in the country. Over 600,000 Rohingya have fled Myanmar, arriving to refugee camps in Bangladesh. "Six out of ten of the new arrivals in the Bangladesh camps are children," according to this article from Reuters, "providing a fertile hunting ground for traffickers looking for young girls to recruit as maids." One of the Rohingya people in the camp, Nazir Ahmed, has set up an information center to reunify children with their families.
