Saifur's observation
I quote from the DS of (01-Aug): " he admitted, there cannot be good governance in the corporate sector, if bad governance prevails in the country as a whole ". So, is the minister admitting that the present BNP government is guilty of bad governance? Also he is on record of saying: " Jumbo-scale corruption is going on even in the European and OECD countries ". As such, is he implying that there should be no hue and cry over rampant corruption in Bangladesh? The Honourable Minister is much better of an accountant than not to understand that, even 0.01% (as of GDP) corruption in those developed countries will look huge to us, as a sum, as the total output of economy of this country is very insignificant in the global context. But, corruption is eating away large chunks of that meagre figure even!
