Kofi Annan calls for more transparency around Myanmar's Rohingya More than 25,000 Rohingya have fled to Bangladesh in recent weeks, humanitarian officials said, following a bloody crackdown by the army in neighboring Myanmar. Kofi Annan, a former UN chief appointed by Aung San Suu Kyi as head of a commission on the western state of Rakhine, hoped Myanmar would allow journalists to visit the state to "help eliminate some of the rumors we are hearing".
