Decade back when I used to visit different countries they said to me 'you are from the poorest nation' in the world. My feeling was unpleasant but I thought I am poor but not a criminal. Now a days people say 'you are from the most corrupt country' on the planet. This time I feel guilty, insulted, low esteemed -- I have nothing to reply back.

Now it is the month of Ramadan, month of self purification. Throughout the nation can we observe a meaningful corruption free week? It will involve police, tax officer, court, customs, immigration, doctors, secretariat and all other government and semi-government offices. Let us give a sincere trial. May Allah help us in this holy month of Ramadan
