Anti-Muslim Violence in Myanmar is ‘Rule of Law’ Problem. Calling Myanmar “a new democracy,” the U.S. ambassador to Myanmar told VOA the latest manifestation of increasing anti-Muslim sentiment in the Southeast Asian nation is a problem rooted in “the rule of law.” The early morning confrontation Wednesday began late Tuesday night when a group of nationalists complained to police that several Rohingya were illegally hiding in a house in a Yangon neighborhood, according to local press accounts. Police who investigated refused to arrest the men, saying they were local, non-Rohingya Muslims allowed to be there. VOA
