Keluarga mencari perlindungan ketika Taufan Mocha menghampiri Myanmar

Keluarga mencari perlindungan ketika Taufan Mocha menghampiri Myanmar

May 15 2023

RAKHINE, Mynmar – Keluarga di barat Myanmar meninggalkan rumah mereka untuk mencari perlindungan dan tempat yang lebih tinggi pada hari Jumaat menjelang taufan yang diramalkan membawa angin kencang dan gelombang ribut ke timur Teluk Bengal.

Taufan Mocha diramalkan melanda pada Ahad berhampiran sempadan Bangladesh-Myanmar, menurut pejabat meteorologi India, dengan kelajuan angin sehingga 175 kilometer (108 batu) sejam.

Pejabat itu meramalkan gelombang ribut antara dua dan dua setengah meter (6-8 kaki) untuk kawasan pantai rendah, yang akan mengancam Bangladesh terutama bagi kawasan kem-kem luas yang menempatkan ratusan ribu pelarian Rohingya.

Penduduk kampung rendah di Rakhine Myanmar berpusu-pusu ke ibu negeri Sittwe pada hari Jumaat, kira-kira seribu orang telah  berpindah dan mencari perlindungan di sebuah biara di bandar itu, kata wartawan AFP.

Penduduk kampung telahpun berkumpul dan ada yang meletakkan selimut dan menyusun tempat tidur sambil membongkar bekal.

Cho Cho Tun, 34, telah membawa anak-anaknya ke pusat perlindungan sementara.

“Saya harap biara ini selamat dan tiada apa-apa akan berlaku di sini kerana tempat ini adalah tempat tertinggi di Sittwe,” katanya.

“Kami mahu tinggal di rumah kami… Tetapi apabila saya memikirkan anak-anak saya dan bahaya kepada kehidupan mereka, saya memutuskan untuk berlindung di sini.”

Thant Zaw, 42, berkata dia telah kehilangan beberapa ahli keluarga apabila Taufan Nargis melanda selatan Myanmar pada 2008, mengorbankan lebih 130,000 orang dalam bencana alam terburuk di negara itu.

“Saya memberitahu keluarga saya bahawa kita harus berlindung di biara ini,” katanya kepada AFP.

“Saya mempunyai enam orang anak dan saya tidak boleh kehilangan keluarga saya lagi.”

Pihak berkuasa junta Myanmar dikerahkan untuk mengawasi pemindahan dari perkampungan pesisir pantai di sepanjang pantai Rakhine, menurut media kerajaan, yang tidak menyatakan berapa ramai orang telah dipindahkan.

Mana-mana bot yang meninggalkan pantai di Rakhine mulai petang Jumaat akan menghadapi tindakan undang-undang, kata junta.

Banjir, tanah runtuh

Angin kencang dan hujan boleh mencetuskan banjir dan tanah runtuh di pedalaman Myanmar dan Bangladesh, kata pejabat hal ehwal kemanusiaan Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu pada Jumaat.

Kira-kira enam juta orang di seluruh Rakhine dan barat laut Myanmar sudah pun memerlukan bantuan kemanusiaan, tambahnya.

Taufan itu nampaknya akan melintasi kawasan berhampiran kem yang luas di Bangladesh yang menempatkan hampir satu juta pelarian Rohingya yang melarikan diri daripada tindakan keras tentera Myanmar pada 2017.

Pegawai Bangladesh berkata pada hari Jumaat bahawa semua masjid, pusat pembelajaran dan pejabat di kem akan dijadikan tempat perlindungan siklon.

Agensi pelarian Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu sedang menjalankan “kesediaan kecemasan” di kem dan pihak berkuasa “bersiap sedia” dengan jentera berat untuk membersihkan jalan, kata seorang jurucakap.

Bangladesh masih belum melakukan sebarang pemindahan, tetapi pegawai berkata beratus-ratus tempat perlindungan siklon telah disediakan untuk menempatkan orang yang dipindahkan.

Taufan — setara dengan taufan di Atlantik Utara atau taufan di Pasifik Barat Laut — adalah ancaman berulang dan maut di pantai utara Lautan Hindi di mana berpuluh juta orang tinggal.

Kali terakhir Bangladesh dilanda ribut besar pada November 2007 apabila Taufan Sidr melanda barat daya negara itu, membunuh lebih 3,000 orang dan menyebabkan kerosakan bernilai berbilion dolar. – UCA News
