[vinnomot] Re: [banglarnari] Is Bangladesh a Sovereign Nation?

Dear Mr. Prodhan and Mr. Asghar

It is pity that we have sacrificed  ocean of blood for our Bangladesh and snatched our independence from the marauder Pakis but in reality how far we were Sovereign ?

This question haunted the sane and patriot since day one we found the domination(black teeth) of the friend and looter. They started annexing the disputed landmarks and put barrier on the way road of the "Chit Mahals" but our sole distributor, copy writer owner of the history of Muktijudhdha and the sole proprietor of our independence  the party in power just after liberation was nothing but on lookers. By thus the first betrayal started with the Mukti Judhdha by the so-called proprietors.

Slowly and gradually we almost became  in disguise the "Korod' Rajjaya of the mighty neighbour. But people at large did not accept this type of unconditional surrender of sovereignty by "Bibhishons". They took their decision and got back the coveted Sovereignty. but conspiracies hatched from within and outside Bangladesh to subjugate it's people and the grab the economy by friends in guise of Development Partners.

The most regretable act by the opposition BAL led by Hasina who wrote several letters and met personally the Kutnikis in Bangladesh and outside and complained about the affairs of our country. Shame and what a shame in the part of a daughter of a claimed great leader by not only undermining the sovereignty but also undermining the "Chetona" which calims to be the only torch bearer. Hasina and her chatukar BAL and nam sorboshsho 14 Dal's impotent leaders like meno,ino,jaku, rabu and the shoejan,shoejibi etc etc also followed the sauit thru personal meetings or attending parties in 5 star hotels.

Friends we have allowed the Crocodiles to swim thru the canal we dug so, now if they want to swallo us what we can do. I will blame all the succesive governments who miserably failed to steer country's dignity,sanctity and entity in the right track. This was due to lack political direction and their goal.They were busy with politics of destruction and busy with churi chiamari with friends and families.

Another unfortunate part played by the "Jonogoner jonno kotha boley" Patrikas(News Papers). These criminals also applauded the unethical and unpatriotic acts of the thug politicians just because of political allegiance plus fund received from accross the border.

Plus Diplomats from the so-called civilized country are completely devoid of diplomatic norms and violated the Geneva Accord of the modus operandi of the Diplomatic activities by mingling in the ointernal affairs of Bangladesh.

They should be ashamed that how one their colleague, the Swiss Ambassador latey faced the the Press in Rajshahi.
She,the Swiss Ambassador flatly refused to make any comments on the ongoing political scenario of Bangladesh terming this as Bangladesh's international affairs and no diplomat has any right to comments on this she said. Bravo  Swiss Amabassador Bravo and thank you for teaching a right lesson to your colleague.

But friends, whatever conspiracy hatched by the Jonogon Permik Chetonar Dal and others Pa Chata jibis and medias, we are sovereign and we will remain sovereign and for that we need to forge unity to counter these henious acts.

Greetings to all Bangladeshis.

It is a pleasure to see Md Asghar concentration on a subject matter which is important. What he have depicted about the foreign officials involvement in Bangladesh's internal matter is true indeed.

What he might have overlooked is the way our political culture has been structured. Though we might feel 'delight' in calling the system as parliamentary democracy; matter of fact it is dynastic hierarchy disguised under democracy.

When respect for opposing political view is difficult, when the political movement is aimed to raise to power only, when arson, looting and anarchism is a habitual normal political activism, when the corrupts reign;  it is still a wonder about that country to exist as sovereign state.

The unfortunate and unwanted dominance of partisan personals in the media, makes it impossible for non partisan views to be heard. Things got worse, when the media have started competing with other business institution in the rat race. Hence the voice of the millions are ignored.

Since birth, Bangladesh have been governed by weak administrators ( with an exception of President Ziaur Rahman). Hence  Bangladeshis have become an  dependent nation  with a sovereign  status. The economy is primarily based on foreign remittance and export items, with the West in the center. In addition to that, each year a handsome amount of foreign aid is also necessary ( in form of  debt) to run Bangladesh. Though insulting to our self dignity, we have no choice left but to practice on their "advices/suggestions" without crying foul. 

However, it is our morally corrupt politicians, who are solely responsible for literally inviting the foreign emissaries to get involved in our political arena. I believe Md Asghar is also aware of the presence of so called "The Tuesday Group" (consists of foreign diplomats) who play a decisive role in our political arena.

India's negative attitude towards Bangladesh has earned her bad reputation among Bangladeshis. Hence any suggestions good or bad constitute to mistrust and create controversy.

It is going to take enormous effort and massive change in political culture to clean the mess up which was created by our politicians in last  30+ years. Since such  goal  is attained, we have to swallow our own pride and be  the sovereign nation under covert occupation.


Sincerely


Musfique.

Is Bangladesh a Sovereign Nation?

Mohammad Asghar

 

I do not know of any other nation in which foreign Ambassadors and High Commissioners are as publicly active as those who are accredited to Bangladesh. Some examples:

 

1. When Awami League and Bangladesh Nationalist Party were at loggerheads on the appointment of a Chief Advisor of the Caretaker government, various emissaries from different nations descended on Bangladesh to help the feuding parties arrive at a consensus. The Secretary General of the Common Wealth was one of the foreign emissaries to have blessed Bangladesh with his presence on its soil

 

His and other luminaries’ presence and involvement in the feud was not an interference in the internal affairs of Bangladesh!

 

But when the Country Director of IMF complained against hartals, Mr. Saifur Rahman of BNP promptly threatened his expulsion from Bangladesh for his [unwanted interference] in what he termed to be the purely domestic affair of Bangladesh.

 

2. Foreign Ambassadors and High Commissioners are very generous while dispensing their advices to the government and the people of Bangladesh. Take, for instance, the role Mr. William Malam (!) played, while he was representing the United States in Bangladesh.

 

After visiting the Chittagong Stock Exchange, he told the reporters: [Bangladesh, like Kuwait, is floating on oil. Its reserve of gas is inexhaustible, so Bangladeshis should not be worried about their future].

 

The fact is: Bangladesh does not have a commercially viable reserve of oil. It's gas reserve is going to become depleted by 2015, if it fails to discover new wells well in time (see the Daily Sangbad of Jan 28, 2008).

 

So, why the Ambassador lied through his teeth?

 

He knew Bangladeshis are prone to easily believing the foreigners; they find it difficult to believe their own kind.  He exploited their psychology to gain cheap popularity among the people of this unfortunate country.

 

3. Prior to the event of 1/11, the most active notables in Bangladesh to keep the press busy were the Ambassador of the United States and the High Commissioners of the United Kingdom. How many meetings they had with the political leaders of Awami League and BNP and the high officials of the government cannot be said with precision, but the fact remains that in the army’s decision to force the mind of the obnoxiously pro-BNP President of the country in favor of a new Caretaker government,  they played a major and vital role.

 

Even today, the British High Commissioner continues to play an effective role in the political life of Bangladesh. He can be seen on the TV screens talking about what the government of Bangladesh should or should not do now or at the time of holding the ensuing national elections of the country.

 

So far as I know, no intellectual of the country, in particular, and its common people, in general, has so far talked against the foreigners’ involvement in the affairs of the country. On the contrary, they appear to be pleased with them, for, they seem to reckon, Bangladesh does not have the capacity or the ability to make good decisions on matters that affect the life of its citizens.

 

But this attitude of the intellectuals of Bangladesh does not apply to the High Commissioner of India and its influential people. To many of them, any Indian, who speaks about Bangladesh, is an enemy of theirs and he or she, therefore, must be demonized in all possible ways.

 

What I saw in Bangladesh during my stay in it, and am still seeing from a distance, makes me ask: Is Bangladesh really a sovereign nation and if those Bangladeshis, who rule the country or have influence over its affairs, are really patriots? Can they ever do anything that would benefit their country and its ordinary people?
