I am no VIP or anything like that, just a concerned student or as many would say "the future of Bangladesh". Funny how we are labelled the future of Bangladesh , because it seems the current generation doesn't want to contribute to the construction of a better tomorrow and wants to leave the matter entirely in the hands of their children. With due respect, to both the government and the opposition, I think it's about time they put their differences aside and worked towards a better Bangladesh. Besides where's the morality among people today? Then again, the entire system is corrupt. Despite government efforts to cut down on crime, we as a nation cannot prosper unless the opposition also acts/contributes for the betterment of this wonderful nation. It's our duty as educated people to educate others and pass this knowledge onto the less fortunate. It seems the entire country is divided into the HAVEs and the HAVE NOTs.Education truly is the doorway to success. I call upon the leaders of the nation to provide the less fortunate with education, not only teaching them to read and write in Bangla, but English should also be taught well in public schools. If we are to be respected in this world we require good communication skills, which require our schools to have a good English language programme so that the students can get their thoughts across.
