The international community has offered many words on justice for the Rohingya and the accountability of the Myanmar military. The refugees need more than words, they need action. Every day that they suffer under the weight of hunger, malnutrition and the dangers of the camps creates long-lasting and generational consequences that could be avoided. Governments worldwide need to step up and fund this urgent appeal.
Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and others in a small group of the world's most wealthy could solve the world's hunger problem. $6B is needed to change the hunger crisis for 42M people. Musk alone is worth $289B and just 2% of his accumulated wealth could save the lives of people who will die without aid. This abject humanitarian catastrophe could be addressed if the "1%" stepped up to the plate.
