Dear Alochok Mithu
In reply to your message below:
"3) Dr. Muhit has said that wealth statement for all AL MPs will be
provided to show their transparency. But my question is that all the
MPs have already submitted their wealth and income information during
nomination process. Why do you need another wealth statement? Is
this a shrewed move from AL? All MPs income and wealth will be
compared based on benchmark information received during nomination.
I think that this seems to me backward as far as transparency is
concern unless Dr. Muhit thought general people are fool and won't
understand his trick. Please stop this game."
Let us focus on the glaringly obvious problems. No need to look for a
cut in the skin when there is blood in many places already. AMA
Muhith is not a doctorate I think. Just try to imagine the challenges
facing the new Finance Minister - I don't think he has the time to
play useless word games. I don't believe he is that kind of man. I
welcome his comments on wealth statements.
It is one thing for the CTG or CEC to require wealth statements
(wonderful). It is quite another for the politically appointed
Finance Minister to demand wealth statements from his cabinet
colleagues (magical!). Just think about what a change this is! It is
also an indication of the risks he is prepared to take. This is no
trick by him - it is a clear indication of how he thinks and where he
wants to go.
I say 'Allahamdullah'.

be handle strongly. I am little doubt about Home Minster's ability
to control this killings. We need strong person in this ministry who
can provide carrot and stick at the same time to control this spill
over situation. PM Hasina may need to reconsider this Post since she
is unable to control as far condition are deteriorating.

politics in Universities and Colleges, They only can do this with
their power and I think it will be a historic moment for Bangladesh
under AL Govt. Please give a chance our next generation to be
educated with good study environment.

export in Bangladesh. I believe that your target should be 2-years ,
not 10-years. Publish your 2-years target and work to achieve it,
pls don't fool general people. Show your incremental achievement if
you are capable to do what you are saying.

To have good powerful friend is beneficial but if it is not two ways,
then I do think it helps. All the Indian connections shows that AL
is influenced by Indian Authority. It is good as long as you can get
share benefits from them too. You have signed Ganga deal in 1996-
2001 and they do not obey it. When you ask Indian to share water,
they do not do anything and more over they point to a document that
you have signed. Please don't sign anything with them until you
understand what your are getting into it.
>
> So I think before you consider anything for Indian, you may need
to put your house in order and put Bangladesh interests in the front
of them than AL interest. I am hearing India wants separate EPZ,
why? I thought India wants secular Govt in Bangladesh, if that's
true why Indian companies can not be secular and do business with
other international companies in EPZs? Why can't they stay with
other companies in EPZs in Bangladesh? I think that this is called "
Vondamy or Double standards". One time you want secular Govt, but
not secular EPZs in Bangladesh. What do you want?

> 6) AL Govt has reduced fertilizer price which is a good news for
the time being but if it continued without any constructive work to
be self sufficient, these will lead more corruption. Our
experiences says that more than 20% of these Fertilizer with subsidy
will be sold to Indian market and few corrupt traded will make money
in the name of reduced fertilizer price. This happened before with
oil and gas also. Bu I do support for this short time to survive but
in long term AL Govt has to show that they have build more industries
to produce Fertilized in Bangladesh instead of importing. This will
be their benchmark for progress.

> You may think why I am doing this kind of push and what is the
benefit?. I think once you keep your Govt in check they will do
better job and they change their courses if they feel that general
people are not happy. This is called people's Target for AL Govt in
Bangladesh.
>
> This election proved that people are more powerful than previously
thought, so you won't able to fool people anymore if we become
WatchDog for Govt and work for the people for better future. I have
doing for the last 4 years to point out Govt failure and their
corrective action. Sometimes I was successful, sometimes I was not,
but I should continue my works as long as our poor general people can
get benefit from it.
