Kuala Lumpur, Nov. 25 : After fleeing the shores of their war-torn country, Sri Lankan Tamil refugees here in Malaysia are facing harassment at the hands of the police and RELA (paramilitary) officers.
The Star Online quoted Tamil refugees, as saying that Myanmar refugees are treated differently from their Sri Lankans counterparts.
They are also finding it hard to get jobs in Malaysia.
Tamil Forum Malaysia, a non-governmental organisation, is currently pushing for temporary work permits for the adults and building a school for the children.
There are about 4,000 Sri Lankan refugees in Malaysia as a result of the island state's 20-year civil war with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).

When coming to collect large sums of money all around the country sympathy meetings are held and large sums are collescted with the pretext of donations and now this happens.1Malaysia is to kill every indian in the country. All polictical parties talking about uplifting the cursed race indian, are only for personal and political glory only.Umno Mic Mca Gerakan Muip Mmsp Ipf Pas Dap Keadilan Ppp are all a complete set worms not worth commenting.Why i said worm is because,after doing all the sins the earth is the only owner to our sinful body,and only the worm will take its share.
