They make three points: ‘1. Based on the conflict currently happening in some parts of Rakhine State, the populace is worried and saddened by the suffering of innocent people. 2. We wish that anyone who acts, speaks and writes does so for peace. 3. Buddhists and Muslims should act according to the teachings of your respective religions and we beg you to join and work together to solve the problem.’ https://www.newmandala.org/voices-of-moderation-on-burmese-facebook/ 3/7
