            ACC Toothless Tiger Being Made Clawless too : Short And Long Term Solution

 

 

Press has reported that the  current  Anti Corruption Commission Chairman Mr. Golam Rahman in a press briefing on the 14th October lamented that the Commission is a toothless tiger and now being made clawless too. He has, however, blamed the judiciary for sloth procedural and for peripheral lacunas of the system of administering law that he wished to have reformed immediately for promptly punishing the corrupts from the society.

We feel that Mr Rahman has not mentioned the political difficulties he had faced or facing.He should have mentioned these difficulties also. We know the political culture in Bangladesh is bad  and it is further declining. The short term actions are improving the legal framework of ACC and political co-operation. However in the long run these are not enough.It is granted that some corruption will reman but in the long run we have to go to causes. One  important issue is the crucial need for building up of national character of our younger generation through value based education system followed by socio-economic set up that would take pride in moral values commensurate with our own ethical aspirations. In other words, a moral regeneration from current erosion of moral values clearly manifested unfortunately at each level of human endeavor or exercise is needed..

 

The  other issue is present  free market economy based on human greed and material gains and having been underpinned by the principle of the laissez faire and licentious indulgence in consumption spree behavior constitute cause and effect of moral erosion. Fortunately, Islam and Islamic life style that asks for simple living and egalitarianism may well reinforce moral standard of our upcoming citizens, provided we train them in the way with spiritual motivation and incentives. Unless Bangladesh goes for these changed issues, programs, attitudes and outlook, and instead continue with the status quo , there is no hope for anything better..
