Gambia's motion to dismiss Rohingya case today

The Netherlands is set to present its case to the ICJ in The Hague on the second day of the International Criminal Court (ICJ) in Burma on charges of genocide against Rohingya Muslims in Burma.

The case was filed by the Gambia on behalf of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

During today's hearing, the Gambia side will have to refute the submissions of Myanmar.

During the ongoing hearings, both the Coup Council and the National Unity Government (NUG) demanded that they be allowed to represent Burma. The ICJ presiding judge, Judge John Daw Noh, allowed the delegation to represent Ko Ko Hlaing, Minister for International Cooperation, and his delegation.

The Burmese side will present its case in the second hearing of the ICJ in the four-day ICJ trial on February 21 and February 25, and the Gambia side will present its case on February 23 and 28.

'Imagine a naked leader, peeing in front of people, wanting to be ashamed of what?'

Mahathir Mohamad said Najib Razak had brought a "culture of shamelessness" through his slogan Malu Apa Bosku.

Mocking his political foe, Mahathir gave an extreme example of a national leader naked and peeing in public during a salute during the official reception of a foreign leader.

"While these foreigners respect our flag, our leaders pee.

"Until naked, pee. What a shame, this is the culture that Najib brought, ”he said.
