I just wanted to take a moment to offer belated congratulations to Reuters journalists Jason Szep and Andrew R.C. Marshall, whose coverage of the Rohingyas was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for international reporting earlier this week. I've used their work in my own blogging about the Rohingya in the past, including this post and this one.
Buddhadharma: The Practitioner's Quarterly Online has more about the prize, Mr. Szep and Mr. Marshall's work, and the situation. Do take a look.
Congratulations again to Mr. Szep and Mr. Marshall. This situation needs all the international attention it can get, and their excellent reporting and awards for it will help in that regard.
