Re: [ALOCHONA] Our chomok foreign minister, Yes Hasina, madam dipu Moni's first performance

Dear Mr Hussain:

It is quite clear neither do you understand the meaning of the word buffer. But keep talking I think everyone at Alochona is getting a good understanding of your thinking and that of your mutual admiration and cheering squad. You spend all your time being deaf & blind,  parroting meaningless inanities and completely out of touch and living in the past.

Good luck to you!

Robin Khundkar

I think she did not know the meaning of "buffer" or she thought it was "butter". An Indian journalist "buttering" Bangladesh Foreign Minister what a great honor.
A few years ago when a West Bengal Minister addressed Sk. Hasina, the then Prime Minister as "The Chief Minister of Bangladesh" she also did not protest. She thought it was great honor from the Bharatiya Dadas.

Dear Mr. Chowdhury:

Unfortunately, it seems you are playing to the gallery just like a politician. It seems you are playing to our fears by just repeating someone else's account of what was said.

I am unclear as to what exactly you are objecting to. The word buffer!!!

Please provide the context in which the remark was made, what offends you and why it offends.  Let us talk about it and take it up if it was real!!  Otherwise it is neither here nor there and does not help in moving things forward.

I think as a believer in Change Bangladesh, you must be able to look at every angle with no sacred cows. Surely you will agree with me on that.

Or do you believe like many of us in Alochona that we know everything and only the OTHER has to change. Thats not the kind of change I want put my marbles in.

In the wise words of that old fool Gandhiji (so many of us so-called MODERNS either are embarrased about as an old FOOL or disparage him as a Cunning HINDU) "You must be the change you want to see in the world".

Buffer statements are designed to soften the unfavorable news and establish some common ground with the receiver. Buffers are critical to the effectiveness of the indirect approach. Their use helps you to begin your communication on a positive note and to avoid an emphasis on the negative.

buffer state http://www.123exp- government. com/t/0377434540 2/

A buffer state is a country lying between two rival or potentially hostile greater powers, which by its sheer existence is thought to prevent conflict between them. Buffer states when authentically independent typically pursue a neutralist foreign policy, which distinguishes them from satellite states.

"Bangladesh did not get the independent state through anyone's blessings. We achieved it through liberation war and we'll protect it at any cost," said AL spokesman Syed Ashraful Islam.

His attention drawn to an Indian journalist's query to Foreign Minister Dipu Moni, outrageously dubbing Bangladesh as a 'buffer state', he said the Foreign Minister could not guess the importance of the issue in the face of the insidious remark.

The Foreign Minister, a fresher in the job of dealing with diplomatic parlance, kept silent when Bangladeshi journalists wanted to know her reaction over the Indian journalist's salvo calling Bangladesh 'buffer state'.

I don't quite understand the idiotic outrage over the phase "buffer state". It simply means a state that acts as a neutral "buffer" between two hostile countries. A buffer state can be a geographical and/or political buffer. Mongolia, for example, acts as a "buffer state" between the two very hostile states, Russia and China. It's sad that our foreign minister doesn't understand the meaning of a "buffer state", and nor do most of our populace. For years, India has acted as a "buffer state" between Bangladesh and Myanmar. Ever wonder why Myanmar military junta with a larger army (and lots of Chinese and North Korean weapons) than that of Bangladesh doesn't invade Bangladesh?
 
Contrary to the original posting by Ms Chowdhury suggests, a buffer state is not a failed state, nor is it a proxy state. I am not sure how ISI is trying to prove Bangladesh is a failed state. Does anyone care to explain? If they are, does it really matter? At least we have a democratic government, no matter how inefficient it may be. What they have is a sham of a state, in-grown insurgency, stolen elections, military coups, and growing intolerance towards the seculars. Look up the words "lawless" and "failed state" in a dictionary, and you would see the map of Pakistan in it.
 
Just my two cents,
Cyrus

 Our so called well educated , harverd certified Madam Diu moni has agreed that Banladesh is a buffer state of pakistan
 
 
 
অতীতে বাংলাদেশের স্বার্থ বিসর্জন দিয়ে হলেও আলীগ ভারতের সাথে যেসব চুক্তি করেছে তার কোনটাই দাদারা বাস্তবায়ন করেনি । ভারতের সাথে আলীগের চুক্তি মানেই বাংলাদেশের স্বার্থ বিসর্জন নয় কি ?সর্বশক্তি দিয়ে প্রতিরোধ করা কি নাগরিক দায়িত্ব নয় ?
