Umbrella drinks and genocide. Unsuspecting tourists enjoy a peaceful holiday in Myanmar's five-star hotel resorts, lazily walking between swimming pools and sun umbrellas, while ten kilometers away, members of the Rohingya ethnic group are being tortured and killed as a result of the largest genocide in Asia since the Vietnam War.
