n page 8 of the May 19 edition of The Jakarta Post, we reprinted our online report of May 14 titled 'Indonesia not to expel Rohingyan displaced', which quoted Foreign Ministry spokesman Arrmanatha Nasir as saying that the regional administration in cooperation with the IOM would look for uninhabited islands in the country on which to accommodate the Rohingya.
The report has been clarified by the ministry through its statement of May 15, as published on our website, which said Indonesia had no plans to accommodate Rohingya migrants on an uninhabited island. 'What Indonesia is doing is accommodating refugees, just as the government has done with 582 refugees in Aceh,' the spokesman said.
