[vinnomot] Interview : 'After This Attack, There Won't Be Any Election Campaign'

Interview : 'After This Attack, There Won't Be Any Election Campaign'
,Ahmed Rashid,  Pakistani writer and journalist
 
SAN-Feature Service : Who was behind the violent attack on Pakistan's opposition leader, Benazir Bhutto? In an interview with SPIEGEL ONLINE, writer Ahmed Rashid makes accusations against government security forces and analyzes the possible effects on elections.
 
Ahmed Rashid is a Pakistani journalist and expert living in Lahore. He is the author of the best- selling book "Taliban: Militant Islam, Oil and Fundamentalism in Central Asia," one of the most influential books about Afghanistan before the American invasion. In 2003, he wrote "Jihad: The Rise of Militant Islam in Central Asia." Rashid is the Asia correspondent for the Daily Telegraph and the Far Eastern Economic Review.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: Mr. Rashid, before Benazir Bhutto returned to Pakistan, Islamic terrorists threatened to carry out attacks. Now those threats have become a bloody reality. Even Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf had asked Bhutto to postpone her trip. Did the opposition leader really have to come back into the country now?
 
Rashid: Bhutto considered it necessary to send a political signal with her return. After nine years abroad, she couldn't return on the quiet; she had to put on a big parade.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: Nevertheless, it must have been clear to her that her triumphal procession involved a high degree of risk.
 
Rashid: She had to show the whole country that she had many followers and supporters. She had to show that she is more popular than former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, who recently landed here but was promptly forced to leave again. Moreover, she had to show her strength to President Musharraf and the army. And she had to send a signal to the US that she is serious about her political ambitions.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: Musharraf blames the bombing on radical Islamists. Bhutto's husband blames Pakistan's intelligence service. Who is behind it?
 
Rashid: That is still unclear. But there is speculation that the attack was not carried out by Islamists, but by certain groups within the regime who don't want Bhutto in the country. The leaders of Bhutto's Pakistan People's Party are accusing the government and the intelligence services of not having done enough to prevent the attack.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: Do you agree with them?
 
Rashid: I really wonder why the government didn't do more in terms of providing security during Bhutto's return. The fact is that the security forces' presence was very small.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: It's been reported that 20,000 men were deployed to protect Bhutto.
 
Rashid: The decisive factor is that the majority of the security forces came from the provinces and not from national units. Everybody knows that the forces from the provinces are led by an opponent of Bhutto's People's Party.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: After Thursday night's bloody attack, can the parliamentary election scheduled for January still be held?
 
Rashid: That's the big question now: Will the army abide by the results of an election? After this attack, there surely won't be any election campaign. The public will avoid political events, so there won't be enough discussion about important topics. Even if there is an election, it'll only be partially meaningful.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: Should the elections be postponed?
 
Rashid: The elections should definitely be held. If they're cancelled, it'll only worsen the crisis.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: What does Musharraf have to do to keep things in the country from escalating?
 
Rashid: He has to win the trust of the opposition, something he hasn't yet been able to do. He's still acting like a military dictator. He acts like he's holding all the cards, even when that's not the case. He's extremely unpopular. He needs to reach out to the opposition and engineer some sort of national reconciliation. Politicians in exile like Sharif should be allowed back.
 
SPIEGEL ONLINE: What does the attack mean for the country's further development? Will democratic organizations be bombed out of the country?
 
Rashid: I don't think so. Naturally people are shocked right now. But they'll want to have an election, because they want democracy. They want an end to military rule.---SAN-Feature Service Courtesy: Der Spiegel

[ALOCHONA] What is going to happen to our culture after 5 years or so?

What is going to happen to our culture after 5 years or so?


1. What are the most common channels when we sit before TV set?
2. What are the most common songs in our stereo players?
3. What are the most common songs in the voice of our people?
4. What are the most popular singers or heroes of our people?
5. What are the most common ring tones in our cell phones?
6. What are the most popular dresses of our female community
during the Eid-day?
7. What are the greater numbers of CDs in our shelves?
8. What are the songs even not familiar to our child?
9. What are the songs almost all the kindergarten and English
medium pupils keep singing?
10. What is the language spoken by almost all the school
students?
11. What are the books read in the English medium schools?
12. What are the products we are using most?

Well, don't we have the slightest feeling for our country of which we
are so proud? I am telling this because the answers of the above
mentioned questions are quite well known to all our people and it
doesn't need a great deal of wisdom to find out the position of our
country and our culture after 5 years or so.


Have we ever come across the word self-reverence or self-respect?
Have we really ever realized the meaning of the term?

What will happen if I encounter some Indian? Will I be able to talk
to him raising my head?

[vinnomot] Re: [khabor.com] MAGISTRATE ROKON UD DOULA publicly APOLOGY to THE CH IEF JU...

   The disgraced magistrate Rokon Ud-Doula has already publicly apologised for his conduct and remarks at a seminar organised by the BCS Administration Cadre Association. He, however, made some points which deserve to be reviewed by the government. These are as follows:
   An administration cadre needs to have 15 years' experience to be the chief judicial magistrate or chief metropolitan magistrate while a judicial cadre will need only 10 years' experience. The media is writing about the corruption of ministers and bureaucrats, but it cannot write anything about the judges' corruption in fear of contempt of court. An administration cadre has to retire from his job at the age of 57 while the judges retire at 67. This discrimination cannot go on.
   Moreover, bringing the magistracy under the law ministry is not separation of the judiciary. To ensure true separation of the judiciary, the magistracy needs to be brought under a separate secretariat under the Supreme Court.
   While members of the BCS Administration Cadre Association deplored the hectic move for the separation of the judiciary from the executive, urging the government to defer the enforcement of the separation, they do not have any disagreement in principle with the plan of the separation of the judiciary but demanded full preparation before enforcement of the decision in this regard, arguing that otherwise a chaotic situation would be created throughout the country.

[vinnomot] Comments and Analysis :It is our war

 
SAN-Feature Service
SOUTH ASIAN NEWS-FEATURE SERVICE

Comments and Analysis :It is our war
 
By Pervez Hoodbhoy
 
No one can doubt that there is a creeping Talibanisation of Pakistan's society and economy. The signs are everywher
 
SAN-Feature Service : The war in Pakistan's tribal areas is being fought by Pakistan's army under America's gun and on its orders. Many innocents have tragically died from bombardment from the skies. Therefore, not surprisingly, Pakistanis are angry and most feel it is not their war.
 
But Pakistan, for its own sake, urgently needs to battle the flames of religious fanaticism lest they consume the rest of the country. This must, however, be done in a manner that is intelligent and principled.
 
Few Pakistanis have spoken out against the rising tide of fanatical militancy. Even the horrific mass murder of joyous citizens by two suicide bombers during Benazir Bhutto's triumphal return has not led to a full-throated condemnation of extremism.
 
Normally vocal, urban, educated Pakistanis,  whose values and lifestyles make them eligible for slaughter by Taliban standards,  are remarkably silent. Do we believe it cannot really happen to us? Are we unwilling to speak because the threat has cloaked itself in the name of religion? Or, are we blinded to the danger by the conviction that the war against the jihadis is America's war?
 
No one can doubt that there is a creeping Talibanisation of Pakistan's society and economy. The signs are everywhere. The Taliban have taken control in many tribal areas, forcing local government officials to flee. As happened in Afghanistan, the Taliban are now the law. A widely available Taliban-made video shows the bodies of common criminals and bandits dangling from electricity poles in the town of Miramshah, the administrative headquarters of North Waziristan. Girls' schools have been closed. Barbers have been told: shave and die. Traditional folk musicians have fled. Polio vaccinations have been declared haram. Unvaccinated children are under threat from polio and other diseases because doctors and health workers are being killed.
 
Taliban vice-and-virtue squads enforce the Sharia, checking, among other things, the length of beards, whether shalwars are worn at an appropriate height above the ankles, and the attendance of individuals in the mosques. Even our history is being attacked, as fanatics trying to emulate their Afghan Taliban brothers attempted to destroy the 2,000-year-old statue of the Buddha in Swat, surely one of the greatest historical monuments in our country. Not surprisingly, tourism in Swat and the Northern Areas has come to a dead halt.
 
Much of the responsibility lies with the government, which is seen as insincere. Everyone knows that military generals, politicians and incendiary mullahs have been symbiotically linked to Pakistan's politics for decades. Jihadist groups, aimed against India, have long operated with the state's knowledge and support. These alliances have helped various power groups attain their respective goals.
 
Nations win wars only when there is a clear rallying cause. While the army high command has committed men to battle, and lost well over a thousand of them, they have not told the nation what these men are fighting for. Nor has the enemy yet been given a name, they are merely termed 'miscreants'. There is also well-founded suspicion of government motives. Since the Taliban were Pakistan's creation, and firmly supported by its intelligence agencies, Pakistanis know that the U-turn would not have happened but for America.
 
The state is also seen as inept. As in the Lal Masjid episode, the government initially refused to identify the enemy. It finally had to do so when the militants went on the rampage. But, instead of acting decisively, the government sought appeasement,  a move that made it look weak. When appeasement failed, as it certainly had to,  there was a massive use of force leaving large numbers of innocents dead. A situation that could have been dealt with by using minimal force was allowed to fester until it eventually exploded.
 
The Taliban have won victory after victory because the army leadership has not reacted as it should have. In another country, the beheadings and mutilation of soldiers' bodies would have led to an uproar which that government could have used to drum up support for its subsequent actions. Recall that in 2006, the capture of just two Israeli soldiers by the Hezbollah had been the casus belli for the invasion of Lebanon.
 
But the capture of nearly 300 Pakistani soldiers led only to public scorn, not sympathy. Initially, an attempt was made to deny that any soldiers had been kidnapped or had surrendered. This soon had to be abandoned. Then, several weeks later, after the BBC interviewed the military officers in the Taliban's captivity, General Musharraf criticised the officers for having surrendered and said that they had behaved unprofessionally. The Taliban have executed three of the soldiers, released a few, and kept most of the rest. The captors say that the army is not interested in having the remaining men back because they are poor people, not from the officer class. This propaganda resonates powerfully with the ordinary soldier.
 
The demoralisation in the ranks can only be imagined. A once-proud army stands isolated in the war. It is rightly blamed for the collateral deaths of non-combatants, but it is receiving none of the support it deserves from the public for stemming the tide of primitive religious extremism.
 
The government is not to be blamed alone. The private media, including the so-called 'free' private television channels known for their so-called openness, studiously avoid meaningful discussions on religious extremism. Although there are endless discussions on the wheeling and dealing of succession politics, the enormous damage to the country's social and economic fabric receives scant attention.
 
This does not mean that the Pakistani public has succumbed to extremism. An overwhelming majority of Pakistan's citizens do not want harsh strictures imposed on their personal liberties. They do not want enslavement of their women, their forced confinement in the burqa, or for them to be denied the right to education. Instead, they want a decent life for themselves and their children. They disapprove of Islam being used as a cover for tribal primitivism. But there is little protest.
 
We must understand this. Why is there no mass movement to confront the extremist Taliban of Miramhah and Waziristan, or the violence-preaching extremist mullah in Mingora, Lahore or Islamabad? This is because ordinary people lack the means and institutions to understand, organise, and express their values and aspirations. We do not yet have the democratic institutions that can give politics meaning for ordinary people. Depoliticising the country over the decades has led to paying this heavy price.
 
To fight and win the war against the Taliban, Pakistan will need to mobilise both its people and the state. The notion of a power-sharing agreement is a non-starter; the spectacular failures of earlier agreements should be a lesson. Instead, the government should help create public consensus through open forum discussions, proceed faster on infrastructure development in the tribal areas, and make judicious use of military force. This is every Pakistani's war, not just the army's, and it will have to be fought even if America packs up and goes away.
 
It may yet be possible to roll back the Islamist laws and institutions that have corroded our society for over 30 years and to defeat our self-proclaimed holy warriors. But this can only happen if our leaders win the trust of the citizens. To do this, political parties, government officials, and yes, even the generals, will have to embrace democracy, in word and deed. This will ultimately determine whether we become a respectable member of the comity of states, or a pariah extremist state that breeds export-quality terrorism.—SAN-Feature Service

[vinnomot] Exile pro-democracy groups seek Sonia’s help for Suu Kyi’s release

SAN-Feature Service
SOUTH ASIAN NEWS-FEATURE SERVICE
Guwahati, October 26,2007
 
Exile pro-democracy groups seek  Sonia's  help for Suu Kyi's release
 
Nava Thakuria
 
Though New Delhi is reeling under the dilemma, whether to support the democratic movement in Burma or not, the civil societies of Northeast India have however come out visibly for the cause of democracy in its adjacent military ruled country.
 
SAN-Feature Service : The exile Burmese pro-democracy groups have started urging the leading Indian political personalities to gather support for the detained Nobel Laureate Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, who has been under house arrest for the last four years.
 
A recent appeal from Women's League of Burma to Sonia Gandhi, the Indian National Congress chief, has shown their desperate attempts for extending and strengthening the support bases for the pro-democracy movement in Burma.
 
Conveying a letter after a brief demonstration  outside the office of the Congress president on October 19, the group strongly urged Ms Gandhi's 'intervention to stop brutal oppression in Burma and release of democratic leader Suu Kyi and all detainees'. The agitating Burmese women had also requested Ms Gandhi to 'speak up against injustice and brutal crackdown on the peaceful demonstrators and Buddhist monks by the Burmese military regime'.
 
The Congress chief  is recognized as the powerful lady in the present ruling coalition of New Delhi, who happens to be the grand daughter in law of India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. Ms Gandhi is a parliamentarian and leads the present ruling coalition of India under the banner of United Progressive Alliance.
 
"Suu Kyi needs your help for her struggle for democracy in Burma. As she is the daughter of Aung San who was very close to Nehru during their struggles for independence from British, you are bound to show your solidarity to her at this crucial point of time", said in the latter signed by two Burmese exile Neng Boi and Thin Thin Aung.
 
It also added that Burmese people, living around the world were 'very disappointed on the India's policy towards Burma'.
 
Mentionable that, India sent its petroleum minister Mr. Murali Deora to Burma to sign $150 millions gas deal amid violent crackdown on the peaceful activists, for its energy requirement. Moreover, New Delhi sent its Culture and Tourism minister, Ambica Soni to attend the funeral of General Soe Win,   who in reality perpetrated the murderous attack on Suu Kyi on 30 May four years back. 
 
"This brutal crackdown makes the women activists' lives more difficult. Women have been sexually harassed by the military and the military created militias. Prominent women activists are in hiding and some had to abandon their babies who they were breastfeeding. Actually Burmese people have been suffering from all kinds of human rights violation under the ruling military government for longtime. Our people in Burma are the prisoners in their own country," the letter from WLB asserted.
 
New Delhi, even after inviting criticism from international communities for maintaining ties with the Burmese junta, tried to justify its stand arguing that it was important to engage the junta (than alienating the group of Generals named State Peace and Development Council).
 
In a recent    visit to Guwahati, the prime city of Northeast, Indian foreign minister Pranab Mukherjee reiterated that New Delhi had been involved 'in a variety of projects with Myanmar (Burma ) in diverse fields such as roads, railways, telecommunications, IT, science and technology, and power'.
 
Though New Delhi is reeling under the dilemma, whether to support the democratic movement in Burma or not, the civil societies of Northeast India have however come out visibly for the cause of democracy in its adjacent military ruled country. While various newspaper editorials and media columns sternly condemned the Burmese junta for its suppressive attitude, the public meetings and demonstrations in the region have resolved raising voice for immediate release of Suu Kyi with all other political prisoners.
 
In a very recent conference in Manipur by the Naga Peoples' Movement for Human Rights (NPMHR, South Sector) it was unanimously decided to extend its solidarity and support to the peoples of Burma in their struggle for restoration of Democracy. The conference on human rights on October 13 at Ukhrul, which was attended by different social organisations, representatives from  Churches, NGOs and institutions had also called upon the military junta to resolve the long pending issue in a democratic and peaceful way.
 
The Burma bordering  Indian state witnessed a solidarity meeting on October 2 at Imphal, where hundred participants including prominent legislatures, political activists, human rights activists with others urged New Delhi to withdraw all kinds of engagement with the junta. Earlier on October 6, the civil society groups of Meghalaya, Nagaland and Assam had observed the global day of action for free Burma with different activities. The simultaneous demonstration in these States highlighted   the common concern for the agitating monks and peaceful protestors in the recent past, who were brutally suppressed by the junta.
 
Mizoram, where nearly 40,000 Chin refugees are still taking shelter to get rid of repressive actions of the junta, also witnessed a massive show on October 4, where hundreds of social activists, journalists, former legislators, politicians, student leaders and Burmese refugees attended a solidarity meeting in the state capital, Aizawl. The participants in the meeting unanimously urged New Delhi to slash all diplomatic and business ties with the junta  until democracy is restored in their Golden land.—SAN-Feature Service

[ALOCHONA] Separation of judiciary - more thoughts

From the Daily Star
Letters


Separation of the judiciary from the executive is a long-standing demand of the people of this country. It will definitely help in establishing the rule of law and containing corruption. Its implementation is already long over-due. British merchants mingled the judiciary with the administration with a view to exploiting people of this land and painfully the system is still on. So immediate separation of judiciary is a must for the greater interest of the nation.

True, the task is an uphill one but its implementation cannot be left to the vagaries of unpatriotic and mischievous political leaders. Although there is immense public support for implementation of this landmark decision, there is no dearth of opposition from the coteries of vested interest, who in the past left no stone unturned to foil this good attempt. Already, to the utter surprise of the general masses, a pretext has been put forward again in the name of extension of time for review of implementation of separation of judiciary.

I, as a commoner, would like to urge upon the present popular CTG not to allow any delay in its implementation. If it is left for future political governments, it will never see daylight. We saw how the political governments played hocus-pocus with the people for the last thirty-six years over the issue of separation of judiciary.

[vinnomot] Giti Ara Safia’s husband threatens to kill expatriate Dr. Mahbub and his wife

Military backed CTG must take this allegtion seriously. If necessary Husband of Advisor Geeti Ara Chowdhury must be arrested  for thretening overseas Bangladeshi . If the Advisor Geeti Ara found involved in this threatening incident she  could also be arrested. Nobody should remain above the law.
I donot undrerstand what qualifies Geeti ara to remain an advisor after hearing this allegatiion from an expatriate Banglasdesh.

For the greater interest of 'neutrality' CTG must take action without further delay.

Sooner she is removed or she resigns from Advisorship is better for this CTG.

RE: [vinnomot] Giti Ara Safia’s husband threatens to kill expatriate Dr. Mahbub and his wife

I am simply saddened at this story.  Dr. Mahbub Islam is a very good person. He is very quiet and gentle. He is a man of integrity and highly law-abiding. He is an excellent teacher and after receiving his PhD in Economics from the Boston's Northeastern University, he had been teaching in Pennsylvania.  He got his tenure and became a full professor. 
 
In late 1990s when the economy of Bangladesh was showing signs of hopes, he and his wife started investing in Bangladesh with lots of expectations and hopes.  Once they finished building their beautiful building in Gulshan with their savings, they moved to Bangladesh and both started businesses.  Dr. Islam while teaching at a local private university (maybe North South) started a Real Estate Development firm and his wife, Mrs. Islam started an Internet Company in Dhaka with a view to settle in Bangladesh permanently.  Last January when I visited them in Dhaka, in spite of political polarization and indiscipline, they were very upbeat about the future of Bangladesh.  They were also involved with a few philanthropic activities.  Now I see that they are in trouble.  Very, very sad indeed. 
 
Until and unless 'rule of law' and 'rights of property' is fully established and guaranteed in Bangladesh, it would be difficult for anyone especially the expatriates (that are law abiding) to invest in Bangladesh. No wonder, many expatriates that invested in Wage Earners bonds in Bangladesh are now reportedly withdrawing their investment out of fear, fear of uncertainty.

[vinnomot] Giti Ara Safia’s husband threatens to kill expatriate Dr. Mahbub and his wife

Subject Adviser Giti Ara Safia's husband threatens to kill expatriate Dr. Mahbub and his wife and grab their six storied building in Gulshan Dhaka.
 
Giti Ara Safia Chowdhury is again in the news after she and her husband tried to grab property of an US expatriate Dr. Mahbubul Islam and his wife threatening them to kill.
 
Our famous infamous (Oghton Ghoton Potioshi) Adviser to Caretaker Government Mrs. Giti Ara Safia Chowdhury wife of BNP nominated EX Member of Parliament Nazim Kamran Chowdhury and Sister-in-Law of our Chief Adviser Dr. Fakhruddin Ahmed is again in the news.
 
No, this time it is not for steamrolling over poor jute mill worker but for beating, threatening to kill and illegally grabbing a six storied building in Gulshan Dhaka.
 
Dr. Mahbubul Islam who is a professor of St. Francis University of Pennsylvania and his wife Farhana Islam jointly holds a press conference today October 25, 2007 in Dhaka Reporters Unit conference room.
 
 
Mr. and Mrs. Islam who owns a six storied building in Gulshan Dhaka alleged that their property at Gulsha-2 Road number 41 holding 7A which houses Giti Ara's ad firm Adcom and his husbands firm Sign Adage and Megnavission is been forcefully  grabbed by Caretaker Government Adviser Giti Ara Safia Chowdhury and his husband Nazim Kamran Chowdhury for some time. Islam couple brought their complained to RAB unit1 commander on December 6th of 2006 but no justice been received
 
On Monday 22nd of October Nazim Kamran Chowdhury husband of Adviser Giti Ara himself, Adviser Giti Ara's brother Abu Rushed Tarak, cousin Mokim Chowdhury and along with their gang attacked Mr. Mahbubul Alam and his wife with iron rods and sticks. Mr. Mahbub was hospitalized.
 
Adviser Giti Ara's husband did not stopped there he slapped Mrs. Farhana Islam when she was begging him for his husbands life. Nazim Kamran tore her Shari and used savage language and threatens to kill her and her husband, asking his gangs to drive the pickup truck over her husband Dr. Mahbubul Islam.
 
Both of them appeared in front of journalist and described the torture of powerful adviser Giti Ara Safia and her family. They asked for government to save them from this powerful land grabbers.
 
Can Dr. Fakhruddin do justice or he will take the side of her beloved Sister-in-Law is next to be seen. We heard lot of advice from Dr. Fakhruddin that no one in the country is above the law. Nation wants to see if Adviser Giti Ara Safia is above the law or under the law.
 
Sincerely
Shamim Chowdhury
