Some would disagree: "By and large, Orthodox law does not count non-Orthodox converts as Jews. ... In Reform Judaism, a child of an interfaith marriage must be raised as Jewish to be considered a Jew. If the child isn't, he's considered a gentile, even if his mother is Jewish."peppermintpaddy wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2017 4:19 amyes it does.....hanno wrote: ↑Fri Mar 17, 2017 4:57 amI think he converted to Judaism, but does that actually make him a Jew?

A Jew is any person whose mother was a Jew or any person who has gone through the formal process of conversion to Judaism.

good read as well;

Although the country is getting better (IE people seem to be happier, have more access to goods, internet, schools, sanctions lifted, roads improving, more freedom of speech)
there is still a ways to go on human rights and peace amongst the many factions in the country. PLUS for all intents and purposes the military still runs the government
Changes since 1988 are immense.

“Although the 1982 Citizenship Law was clearly regressive, it did not render any group of people stateless on paper,” explained Nick Cheesman, a fellow at the Australian National University and expert on rule of law in Myanmar. “Actually, it recognized as citizens those who were already recorded as such… regardless of how they were identified racially or religiously. But in the late 1980s and early 1990s when the government launched a process of re-registration, taking old ID cards to re-issue new ones, Muslims in Rakhine State were not issued with new cards even when they were legally entitled to them.
“We call ourselves Rohingya, but the government doesn’t allow us to use our name. During the verification process [for the 2014 pilot programme], the authorities told us that we would have more opportunities if we accepted [being labelled] ‘Bengali’ and got citizenship,” she said.
The designation ‘Bengali’ was also applied to some Kaman, a Muslim group in Rakhine that does feature in the list of 135 “national races”. Maung Zaw, a 45-year-old father of three also confined in the Taung Paw Camp, showed us the pink card he was given three years ago. On the card he is listed as Bengali, but he also produced, with puzzlement, his family book stating that both of his parents were Kaman.
