This report is Probably true and is of High Priority. Here is why -
On 27th May, during the protest against Rohingya boat people, in Bahan Township, Rangoon, the protesters used the flag that represent Buddhism. Although 2008 Constitution mention at Chapter 8, Section 364, that the political parties must be refrained from using religious symbols. A prominent Buddhist monk and one of the leaders of MaBaTha and the Abbots of Magway Monastery Sayadaw U Pamaukkha said, “We shall save a piece of wood that floating on the sea but we must not rescue any Rohingya because they are ungrateful people”. During the protest, the chairman of Peace and Diversity Party, U Nay Myo Wai said, “All the Rohingya boat people must be shot to dead on sight and their boat must be sunk”. He used such blatant incitement twice within a month.
