Zainab: Feelings of Thankfulness

Woven Threads: Stories from Afar

It’s 2020 and there are more than 1 million stateless Rohingya in the world and the number keeps increasing. The Rohingya are an ethnic, Muslim minority in the Rakhine State of Myanmar. They have no freedom of movement, access to education or any support services, and the arbitrary confiscation of their property is also within the law. Zainab, ethnically a Rohingya, born in Malaysia, grows-up in Australia and delights in the possibilities this land has given her. Growing up with different traditions in a foreign land is not always easy or simple. It is not until she is about 16 that Zainab realised what an amazing gift her parents had given her when they left their family and home and migrated to Australia. Though we are from many lands with diverse cultures we understand how lucky we are to be Australian.
