There are numbers of boats carrying Rohingya Muslims that are denied entry to Malaysia and at the mercy of many outside influence including human trafficking. Each boat is carrying hundreds of Rohingya Muslims and they have been staying on the water for more than 10 weeks. Malaysia is not accepting Rohingya due to the COVID-19 lockdowns that they have implemented and because for a long time they have always had xenophobic perspectives towards the Rohingya Muslims. The surviving Rohingya Muslims are being quarantined in Bangladesh. The human traffickers that smuggle these people usually try to get the lowest or the weakest ones especially because they have no home.
