Fate of Bangladesh

They wonder how the sacrifices of millions of freedom fighters, for whom we got the hard-earned freedom, are being shattered today at the hands of some human-sharks (or inhuman!). They also observe with hatred that Rajakars are at the helm of affairs and literally dictating the present regime in running the affairs of the country.

Corruption has become rampant and it seems there is none to halt this menace it is like going from a perfect sail in sea to a violent and turbulent storm. Those who are in power today might face the same fate like their predecessors. They should bear in mind that nothing "Lasts." There is end to every episode. So good sense should prevail on them before things go out of control. They should also bear in mind that terrorism and poverty are inter-linked. And as terrorism is a security threat, so is poverty, because when people are poor, they are more prone to revolt without notice.

Lies and corruption will not help the present regime survive any longer. The present rulers of the country should realise that people in general want to see the country a peaceful abode so that truth and justice prevail. A beacon of hope is still there in the minds of the general masses that the present crisis will be over.

In view of the facts stated above, the first and foremost exercise of the authorities concerned should be to ensure austerity in all fields of government expenditure. The size of the cabinet must be reduced to half. The number of ministries should also be cut to size. Misuse of government vehicles should be avoided as far as possible. Foreign visits by ministers and bureaucrats must be minimised. The size of the PM's entourage should also be reduced to save public money. A country like ours can ill-afford to run smoothly without practising austerity in all walks of life. So it is hoped that the authorities at the helm of the affairs would come to their senses and thus save the nation from complete annihilation.

The future of Bangladesh is at stake now as politics is far from stable here and people in general have started to hate the politicians, who are largely responsible for continued downfall of the country's economy and social life.
