Bangladeshis abroad
What happened was when my brother found out that they were going back, this marred his judgement as he was in no mood to come to Bangladesh. So the day they were supposed to fly out, early that morning he left the house. The whole day past but there was no sign of him. As the time approached for going to the airport, my parents got very worried. Alhamdulillah, finally safter many duas he appeared dishevelled.
My point is such incidents take place over and over and the solution to these problems is simple. Before I start with the solution, let's see the problem. The very first problem that arises is lack of so-called freedom in Bangladesh, and the media plays a great role in placing Bangladesh as an unsuitable place for them.
For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel. So my suggestion is -- come to Bangladesh on a vacation and get your kids enrolled in any academic institution and let them get the feel of it. As soon as they get some friends here they will automatically fall in place. That's exactly what happened to my brother. Today if you ask him if he wants to go back, he will definitely say no. If you ask him why, he will say the friends I've made while in Bangladesh are incomparable to those in US.
