A Rohingya family now living in Brisbane is one of many to be torn apart by the refugee crisis.
Robi Alam and his family were part of the UN Humanitarian Intake into Australia in 2010, but other family members were not so lucky.
While 19-year-old Mr Alam is a Queensland University of Technology student, soccer player and fast-food worker, his cousin of a similar age lives in the Nayapara Refugee Camp in Bangladesh with few opportunities.
His cousin Tasmida Begum says “I can't even get educated, it's very unsanitary and Mum gets constantly sick.”
It is estimated that there are around 3,000 Rohingya people separated from their loved ones in Australia.
