SHOULD BANGLADESH WELCOME PM MODI?

SHOULD BANGLADESH WELCOME PM  MODI?

Indian PM Modi is expected to visit Dhaka for two days, starting March 16, during celebrations marking the 100th birthday of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Hasina’s father and the founding leader of the 49-year-old nation. Rahman was killed during a coup in 1975.

At least 42 people were killed and hundreds more injured during a 72-hour outburst of intercommunal violence in the Indian capital recently maximum of them are Muslims.it is now clear to the international community that BJP(Modi's party) and RSS leaders fueled the riot which left Muslim community of Delhi (in fact in the whole India) into a vulnerable position with immense fear for their lives and property.

The riots stemmed from tensions over amendments to a citizenship law that were passed by Modi’s government but seen by critics as discriminating against Muslims. The religious community forms the largest minority group in Hindu-majority India, which is one of Bangladesh’s closest allies.

so Bangladesh should not welcome pm, Modi, but any sort of violence should be avoided as well.here's why Bangladesh
should not welcome Modi-

1.it will hurt the emotion of Muslim's in Bangladesh.
2.there is no clear declaration about the treaty for unresolved river issues between the two countries which is hanging about a half-century. which caused disaster to millions of people of Bangladesh.
3.india -Bangladesh border is one of the borders of highest casualties in the world.still almost on regular basis Bangladeshi people are killed or oppressed by border security forces of India.
4.BJP government is planning for CAA/NRC.nobody knows Muslims who will lose their identity, where they will go. as Bangladesh is a neighbouring country, refugees may come to Bangladesh also.bangladesh has already 1.2 million refugees from Myanmar, if from India refugees come to this country, the economy may collapse.

INTELLECTUAL'S OF BANGLADESH

INTELLECTUAL'S OF BANGLADESH

I HAVE SERIOUS DOUBT ABOUT THE INTELLECTUALS OF BANGLADESH. THEY ARE GROSSLY PARTISAN.IT'S NOT A PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE PARTISAN, BUT IT'S PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE HIDING THE TRUTH FOR THEIR OWN ADVANTAGES THOUGH THEY KNOW THE FACT VERY WELL.

ANOTHER THING IS LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AND LACK OF SPECIALIZATION IN A PARTICULAR FIELD. ONLY A FEW OF THEM (REMEMBER BANGLADESH IS A NATION OF 160 MILLION)ARE WELL LEARNED BUT MAXIMUM OF THEM ARE FAR BELOW THE INTERNATIONAL STANDARD.

FOR EXAMPLE, ONE MILLION ROHINGYA CAME AS REFUGEE FROM MYANMAR TO BANGLADESH, BUT NOT A SINGLE GOOD BOOK HAVE NOT WRITTEN BY ANY BANGLADESHI SCHOLAR ABOUT THIS CRISIS IN THIS TWO YEARS THOUGH IT IS A
VERY BIG NATIONAL ISSUE. EVEN THERE IS NO VERY GOOD BOOK ABOUT MYANMAR AND THEIR CULTURE AND PEOPLE, IN BENGALI, THOUGH THEY ARE NEIGHBOUR FOR THOUSAND YEARS. IF YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT NEIGHBOUR VERY WELL, HOW WILL YOU NEGOTIATE WITH THEM? (OF COURSE, MYANMAR HAVE DONE SERIOUS CRIME, BUT I AM TAKING ABOUT OUR PREPARATION)

AFTER ABOUT 50 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE, WHY OUR ENGINEERS CANNOT DESIGN A MAJOR BRIDGE OR ANY MEGA PROJECT? THEN WHY SUCH BIG ENGINEERING UNIVERSITIES ARE THERE, FOR WHAT? WHY NO BANGLADESHI UNIVERSITY CAME WITHIN FIRST THOUSAND, IN THE WORLD RANKING OF UNIVERSITIES FOR MANY YEARS?

MAXIMUM INTELLECTUALS ARE WHOLEHEARTEDLY CORRUPTED, THEY ARE NOT DOING WHAT THEY SUPPOSED TO DO. INTELLECTUALS ENLIGHTEN A NATION. THEY WILL BRING NEW IDEAS, NEW HOMEGROWN SOLUTIONS OF OUR PROBLEMS BUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING? BECOMING PARTISAN IS NOT A PROBLEM(EVEN IN 1ST WORLD COUNTRIES HAVE PARTISAN INTELLECTUALS)  BUT NOT DOING ONE'S OWN DUTY IS A BIG PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY ARE WASTING NATION'S WEALTH.

INTEREST RATE OF MICRO CREDIT IN BANGLADESH

 INTEREST RATE OF MICRO CREDIT IN BANGLADESH

1. Impact of Microfinance in Poverty Alleviation -MFIs are successful at reaching the wealthier poor; not to the extremely poor and destitute groups.
2. For poor with previous indebtedness, MFPs are not effective .Effective only for economically active poor.
3. MFI interest rates are much higher in terms of borrowers’ graduation.
4. Charging high interest to poor is unfair, and unrealistic. 
5. Only economically active women could uplift their empowerment status. Majority of MFI members remained or demoted into ‘low level of empowerment’.
6. Non-members improved or at least sustained their empowerment status.
7. Inelastic demand for Islamic MFPs exists in the study areas.
8. Islamic MFPs have the potential to alleviate rural poverty.
9. In a nutshell, MFIs are not doing exactly what they are publicly claiming. Microfinance is a good business for the MFIs; but, unfortunately, not so for its borrowers. Ironically, many poor borrowers, in fact, get deeper into debt and poverty in the process. Therefore, a modified, comprehensive, and specialized approach is needed to address the diverse needs of the poor and alleviation of poverty. 
10. Special care should be given to the extremely poor and destitute. 
11. Sufficient amount of loan should be given-Upon ensuring skill development training, in kind, at a reasonable lower interest rate, to enterprises selected upon consultation with MFIs. 
12. loan re-payment instalment should be fortnightly or monthly. 
13. Regular monitoring, follow-up support and services should be ensured. 
14. Steps should be taken for liquidation of members’ indebtedness with moneylenders.
15. Institutional supply of raw materials can benefit the borrowers and enhance institutional sustainability. Marketing facilities for the members should be given to ensure fare products price.

Is Bangladesh sustainable with this population?

Is Bangladesh sustainable with this population?

let's do some math.
Bangladesh population is  163,831,408
The country has a population density of 1,115.62 people per square kilometre,(2,889.45/square mile), which ranks 10th in the world. The surface area in Bangladesh is currently at 147,570 km² (or 56,977 square miles).
Bangladesh is expected to reach a population of 170 million by 2020, and 186 million by 2030. the current UN projections have Bangladesh's population growing until 2053 when it will hold an estimated 202.7 million people. Dhaka is 3rd most densely populated city in the world.more than one million refugees from Myanmar staying in Bangladesh as well. On the rise of NRC and CAB in India, people fear that Muslim in neighbouring states of India will influx to Bangladesh as well, today or tomorrow.so the question is Is Bangladesh sustainable with this population. The answer is yes if there is proper planning for the next 50 years from now. the government should study the matter seriously, make a detailed plan and programme to counter possible complications and adverse effects which will be created by the vast population. every district and metropolis should have their own plan and programme for health, infrastructure, transport, food security,  education system etc for the next 50 yrs. Also, strong diplomatic measures should take to prevent influx of people from India. otherwise, Bangladesh will fail to meet the challenges of the 4th industrial revolution.

BANGLADESH, WHAT ARE THE MAIN PROBLEMS?

BANGLADESH, WHAT ARE THE MAIN PROBLEMS?

Society of Bangladesh is deeply divided from inside. politicians made it and they want to keep it as well because of financial gain.
To be true, political structures and institutions are now not functioning, and the politicians don't want to see it functioning.
we speak the same language, eat almost the same food, culture is also almost the same. But some people only focusing on differences
and aiding to divide society for their own financial and other gains. In the long run, this division will weaken national strength and it will be a failed state. So what to do? In these circumstances, all intellectuals should raise their voice in a peaceful manner. Everyone should tell white as white and black as black. Who is in power or who will come in power in future is no big deal. The big deal is making the proper institutions which can run independently and make the right decision without bias. many men many minds.its the beauty of democracy. once Voltaire said, I might disagree with your opinion but I am willing to give my life for your right to express it. Realizing this by heart will be the first step to come out of this division otherwise some neighbour and some insiders will use this division for their gain. I am not a supporter of martial law. politics and ideologies should be counter with politics and ideologies.one party system or martial law will not work in Bangladesh.polticians and public should understand it clearly. the early we will realize, the early we can recover.
