I am very happy to know that the Journalists of The Daily Star and theProthom Alogot cars and motor cycles from their management. I feel happy that some of my good friends will get car or bikes.

Our society must congratulate the management of the Media World. It is commonly known that the entrepreneurs of our country are depriving their employees in many ways. The garment sector is an example. The recent movement of the garment workers of Narayangonj reminds us how our entrepreneurs are treating their employees.

Amid the frustrating news of killing, looting, bribery, brutality, the news of giving vehicles to staff brings relief from the negative news.

I hope other good entrepreneurs will come forward to set examples like the Media World. This will definitely encourage Bangladeshi workers to be more professional and punctual to their daily work. Every extra incentive to employees must not be seen as a loss, rather it enhances productivity by uplifting sagging morale.

Congratulations also to my friends for having cars. And, million thanks to the Media World for setting such a glaring example in the world of the nation's print Media.
