Debased political culture

One top example: our politics is topless! No need to define 'topless'. The brains of most of the top leaders have been hijacked or abducted by ... (you know by whom). Our country is like a bottomless basket. What remains of whatever is left? Monga skeletons, and half clad beggars!

It means lack of public institutions for regulatory outputs. Bangladesh is lacking the meat for sustenance (good governance). But there are too many cannibals around craving for any type of meaty morsels.

The rules and rags are for the weak and the meek and those who obey the laws of the country. Those who are visible are detained and harassed, not the hidden godfathers; because the political parties would be weakened. The party is greater and more important than the country or nation, and charisma has became a political cult. There is an evil pattern in debased political cultures globally (even the superpower cannot be excluded).

The voting machine has become a gambling outlet as in Las Vegas. Imagine billiard lounges in air-conditioned shopping complexes, and the standard of our cricket in the field of reality. The politicians cannot handle the cue, and the political googlies have arm actions which are suspect. When a political worker (as a contractor for some official project) has to manhandle the offer who is to approve and pass the bill (DS report Nov 10), there is no point in having a 'civil' service!

There is an alternative to being topless open your heart and be genuine in your concern for the people (men only) Sacrifice a part of the black wealth for political 'kurbani' (not for buying a saree worth taka one and a half lakh).
