[mukto-mona] Palestinian Government Open Letter to Chavez

The following is the full text of an open letter sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Gaza to Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, on January 12, 2009. The Gaza government was deposed by PA President Mahmoud Abbas in 2007. However, the elected Hamas government in Gaza considered Abbas' decision unlawful, and continues to operate, despite the siege and the intense Israeli military onslaught, which killed, to date, nearly 1,000 Palestinians and wounded over 4,500 more. Chavez condemned the Israeli attacks and threw the Israeli Ambassador out of Caracas.
 

Palestinian National Authority
Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Deputy Office, Gaza
January 12, 2009

In the Name of God; the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

President Hugo Chavez,

Your Excellency, President Hugo Chavez,

We, the people of Palestine, commend your courage to speak and act upon your conscience regardless of your detractors' criticism or cowardice.

Mr. President, we have watched death rain upon our families and children in Gaza for weeks; and yet we stand proud and ready for any outcome. We are a resilient people who wish for peace but will fight rather than bow to injustice. We live and die by the codes of our forefathers – codes of honor, integrity, truth and bravery.

Throughout history, in a just conflict, there always emerges a champion, a single hero who, by his actions, embodies all the virtues the masses aspire to. You have demonstrated that you are such a man.

We have observed your commitment to the destitute and disenfranchised since you first took office. The Americas are fortunate that your presidency has not only survived but emerged as a paradigm to be emulated. You have boldly said what the world's masses feel – from speaking out against the sulphur of imperialism at the United Nations in 2006 through to the recent expulsion of the devil's minion.

Mr. President, we were eager to meet you in the summer of 2007; but unfortunately yet another blockade by the Israelis, who control our ports and borders, suspended our plans. As we began the truce which we initiated, they were already planning the destruction of our infrastructure.

The Israelis slowly and deliberately began reducing the presence of journalists and denying humanitarian groups access to Gaza over the past 6 months. They reduced the number of trucks bringing supplies from several thousand to a handful each month. And since they began their bombing campaign, food and fuel are scarce. In fact, only 9 of 47 bakeries produce bread, only 5% of industrial operations function and wastewater pumping stations have shut down, flooding raw sewage into populated areas, farmland and the sea.

We do not know who among us will remain alive once this barbaric onslaught is ended. But we remain, as a people and a government, undeterred in our belief that justice will reign.

We can ask no more of you than you have already done – for you have proven that a nation cannot be cowed simply because it drives its own destiny, nor will a leader lose his throne for challenging imperialism. We salute the citizens of Venezuela for choosing President Chavez; and we commend you for being among the few leaders of this age who put people before politics.

I may not live to honor our commitment to meet you; but our people will not rest until they have sent a delegation to meet the man who put politics aside, spoke with honor and acted with courage.

Very Truly Yours,
Dr. Ahmed Yousef

Deputy of the Minister of Foreign Affairs
Former Political Advisor to the Prime Minister Ismael Hanniya

[mukto-mona] MUMBAI CARNAGE: TERRORIST ATTACKS ON NOV 26-29, 2008

SAN-Feature Service

SOUTH ASIAN NEWS-FEATURE SERVICE

January 15,2009

 

MUMBAI CARNAGE: TERRORIST ATTACKS ON NOV 26-29, 2008

 

Pritam K. Rohila, Ph.D.

 

Yes, even in Pakistan, there many people and organizations who crave for peace. They do not like what's going in their country, and do not approve of terror as an instrument of public policy, political influence, or religious dominance.

 

SAN-Feature Service: It was the morning of November 27, 2008, in Hyderabad, Pakistan, that we first learnt of the Mumbai carnage.

 

My wife, Kundan, and I were in Pakistan, on the second leg of our self-financed Peace Pilgrimage to India and Pakistan.

 

To hold discussions with local peace activists "Peace in My Family, Harmony in my Neighborhood," the theme of our pilgrimage, we had already visited Bhopal, Lucknow, Allahabad, and Varanasi, in India from October 23 through 31.

 

We arrived in Karachi on November 24. After meetings and media interviews there, we were traveling by car all the way to Islamabad, with stops at Hyderabad, Larkana, Sadikabad, Multan, Toba Tek Singh, Faisalabad, and Lahore.

 

We reached Hyderabad on the evening of November 26. Following a meeting at the office of South Asia Partnership Pakistan, we were interviewed by the host of "Na2 Sahi to," a Sindhi language program at KTN television station, and then treated to dinner by Zulfiqar & Fatima Shah, at the Civic Society Club.

 

On the morning of November 27, we went to Sindhi Language Authority, an institution dedicated to preserving and promoting Sindhi, which is believed by some people to be the earliest Indian language. We had been invited there, for tea with its chairperson, Dr. Fahmida Hussain, and her deputy Taj Jeo.

 

When we arrived there, we found Dr. Hussain worried about her daughter, who had been a guest at the Taj Hotel, a well-known Mumbai landmark, across from the Gateway of India. Pointing to the newspapers on her desk, she explained there had been a terrorist attack on the Taj, the previous night.

 

We did not discover seriousness of the Mumbai attacks until November 30, when we first watched TV in our hotel room in Multan.

 

For 60+ hours, November 26 through 29, ten armed young men, targeted crowded public places, and some ritzy venues frequented by foreigners. Guided and goaded by their handlers in Pakistan, callously they killed about 170 individuals, wounded nearly 250, and terrorized many more.

 

But the terrorists must have disappointed their masters, as they failed to achieve their objectives.

 

Despite verbal belligerence, India and Pakistan didn't start a war.  Rather, as required by a 1991 treaty, on January 1, they fulfilled their obligations and exchanged with each other the lists of their nuclear installations.

 

There were no Hindu-Muslim riots either. In fact, many Muslim leaders publically expressed solidarity with Mumbaikars, and the dead terrorists were denied burial in their graveyard. They had previously declared terrorism to be un-Islamic.

 

Further while the attacks may have discouraged some foreign tourists and a few investors, there was no severe blow to India's economy.

 

Most of all, they did not break the people's spirit.  The day after the assault, the Mumbaikars poured out of their homes and offices to march through the city streets. On December 3, thousands rallied for peace, at the Gateway of India.

 

Leopold Café, one of the terrorists' targets, was open for business on December 1. Within less than a month, the unaffected portions of other two targets, the Oberoi Trident, Taj hotels were reopened to business.

 

On December 25, Shimon Rosenberg, father of the slain Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg's wife, lighted a giant menorah at the Gateway of India.

 

Now it is time for the concerned governments to do something that is definitive as well as effective in protecting their mostly war-&-violence-weary and peace-loving peoples of India and Pakistan. 

 

Yes, even in Pakistan, there many people and organizations who crave for peace. They do not like what's going in their country, and do not approve of terror as an instrument of public policy, political influence, or religious dominance. They readily condemn violence and its perpetrators, and sympathize with its victims in India as well as Pakistan. But they have not been able to assert themselves in a cohesive, reliable, concerted, determined and effective manner.

 

Anyway Pakistan must act upon its oft-repeated resolve to rein in the terrorists and their supporters and masters operating from its soil.

 

India must do a better job of protecting its minorities.

 

Israel and Hamas must give up their arrogance and resolve their long-standing disputes.

 

The United States must abandon its unilateral, militarist approach to solve the world's problems. It must ensure that its foreign and economic policies do not foster injustices and inequities around the world.

 

Finally, we all need to learn to be brave and strong enough to protect ourselves. As Gandhi once said, "I cannot teach you violence, as I do not believe in it. I can only teach you not to bow your heads before anyone, even at the cost of your life."

 

By the way, despite the Mumbai carnage, thanks to our country coordinators and local hosts, we had a successful visit in Pakistan, and we were received warmly everywhere we went – schools, universities, radio and television station, and offices of newspapers, writers' groups, labor unions, human development, human rights, political parties, and provincial governors. There were formal receptions as well as dinners at fancy restaurants and private residences. Even the hotel personnel were extra courteous to us.

 

Also on December 4, we participated in a peace demonstration, organized by the Pak-India Peace Initiatives, in front of the Lahore Press Club's gate, complete with the flags of Pakistan and India, and placards which read like, "Give Peace a Chance," and "Jang Nahin Aman; Aman Maujood Hai To Asia Mazboot Ha; Shama Har Ghar Kay Aangan Mein Jalti Rahay To Achha Hai" ("Peace, Not War; Peace Will Make Asia Strong; Candles Should Stay Lit in Every Home." Reports and photographs of the demonstration appeared in several newspapers the next day.

 

Besides we visited Mohenjodaro, the archaeological site of a 5000 years old civilization; Benazir Bhutto's grave in the Bhutto family Mausoleum at Garhi Khuda Baksh; Sadhu Bela Hindu Temple on a Sindh River island near Sukkur; and the scared Sikh Gurdwara associated with the life of Guru Nanak at Punja Sahib. We enjoyed many delicious meals including one at the famous Village restaurant in Lahore, and a lunch of rice-roti and-lotus-stalk-salan at Dadu.

 

We are especially thankful to Zaman Khan, our Afridi Pathan driver. He drove defensively, and kept us entertained throughout our two-week travels from Karachi to Islamabad.—SAN-Feature Service

[ALOCHONA] Exchange Student Program

Its a US Government Program is open for all countries. It has been
going on for decades for kids of all nations but all such kids must
return to their countries after an year or so, I'm not sure. Its
called Student Exchange Program because similarly American School
kids go live in other countries.

like Americans. "It's not all about killings and stuff," Komal said.

> She mentioned a few other stereotypes that she feels are
perpetuated by the American media. "Every Muslim man wears a turban.
Not true! And every Muslim man is not a terrorist," Komal said.
>
> She does not wear a veil, and neither does her mother. Komal said
her family follows Islam on a regular basis, but are moderates, not
extremists.
>
> Of the 61 students selected for the YES program, 40 are girls, and
35 don't wear veils, Komal said.
>
> She was expecting U.S. schools to be harder than those in Pakistan.
But instead, "It's a piece of cake. I got a 105% on my Algebra 2
test. That was a shock. I would never get that in Pakistan," Komal
said.

returns to Pakistan, Komal will have to repeat her junior year,
because they do not accept the American grading system.

> Besides hanging out with her American friends, Komal likes to cook,
draw body art called henna (on hands, like a temporary tattoo), salsa
dance and write.

has enjoyed a number of firsts, like meeting people of other faiths,
such as Jews and Christians.

Christmas tree to the mountain of gifts, to the excitement of giving
and receiving gifts.

elders give money to their kids," Komal explained. "Christmas Day
reminded me of Eid. I personally think that Christmas helps the
bonding between family members."

holiday, but she attended a mosque for Eid prayers, describing it as
enchanting. "I never felt that close to my religion like I felt that
day."

school in Pakistan, and then pursue a Chartered Accountancy program
in college.

[mukto-mona] Re: Regarding article by Mr Ram Puniani

Dear Editor and all Mukto-Monas

This letter of mine is related to the letter of Mukesh Guptaji and
also related to the letter of one Muktomona to the response of the
article "Israeler Barboratar Samapti Haoa Prayojon" by Avijit Roy
Saheb. I am sorry to write in late ofcourse.

I think it is very difficult to understand the profound inner meaning
of Bhagavat Gita (Vagobot Gita, simply Gita)or Mahabharat.Bhagavat
Gita is a part of Mahabhat.

One Muktomona had written " ....there you may condem that genocide
against Muslim but you will never quote from " Moha Varot" or "
vogobot gita " that this religion is teaching this kind of genocide
and this religion is encouraging to kill non-Hindus.

My point of view is that most of the non-Hindus have very shallow
knowledge about Sanatan (sonatoa)Dharma(dharmo) which is some time
considered as Hindu Dharma.I do not know whether there are any verse
in Bhagavat Gita or Mahabharat to quote about terrorism.In any of
these two scriptures there are no reference which mention killing of
non-Hindus.The time, thousands of years before the birth of Prophet
Jesus and Prophet Mohammad(Peace be upon him), those scriptures were
composed there were no non-Hindus in this subcontinent. All knows
this fact.All the inhabitants of were the followers of Sanatan Dharma.
So how these scriptures will tell to kill non-Hindus.

The content of Gita is the conversation between Lord Krishna and
Arjuna(Arjun)which is of same value now-a-days in peoples'
lives.These converation had taken place before the start of
Kurukshetra (Kurukhetro)battle. Kurukheto is a place near New Delhi
in the state of Hariyana of Bharat. Arjuna was double- minded whether
he would fight against his kiths and kins who were taken several
unethical means to drive Arjuna and his brothers from the kingdom and
wanted to destroy them by hook or crook. Responding to Arjuna's
confusion and moral delima, Krishna explain what Arjuna should do and
not do. It was a profound discussion and full of philosophical
essence.

One of the verses of Gita :
" Yada yada hi dharmasya
Glanir bhavati Bharata
Abhyuthanam adharmasya
Tadatmanam srjmyaham.... "

" When ever and wherever there is decay of righteousness
Then I manifest myself"
to destroy the sinner (unlawful actors) and to protect the good doers.
Here Dharma means not any particular religion.

The meaning of Dharma here is the good ethics of lives, good moral
principles of lives which lead to become happy and to make other
happy.
This should be the meaning of Dharmo. But the meaning of Dharma (
religions) in which we believe are Muslimism, Christiniaty, Buddaism,
etc.
We are fighting against each other on the basis of religions. We are
abusing ours each others religion.Truely speaking when a person
powered by his or her own wisdom he or she reaches above all the so
called religions.Then he or she does not follow any so called
religions.Why he or she will follow the 'path' shown by others? That
person is so enlightened by his or her own wisdom that he or she need
not to follow the path of other shown before.This person is the king
of his own kingdom of wisdom. The wisdom never differentiate and
divide people on the bais of the so called religions.

Regarding Kashmir I want to add the following:
On the basis of human rights if majority of Kashmiris want to be
separated from India, their right shall be honoured. But the
Kashmiris have their own state government. The Kashmiris voted the
Kashmiris and make the government.
Regarding separation of Kashmir I think not all Muslim Kashmiris want
to be separated from India. Specially most of the senior Kashmiris
(who keep their mouth shut up infront of the militants) they think
their condition will remain the same if it joins Pakistan.
Pakistan will not install industries there because no way to install
it. Pakistan will not make all the hills to plain for cultivation,
Pakistan will not be able to change the climate of Kashmir so that it
will be without snow falling in winter and Kashmir will grow
vegitables and rice in winter. Pakistan will not give more employment
to Kashmiris if it joins with Pakistan. Pakistan itself is suffering
tremendous poverty since some last couples of decades. But certainly
Pakistan will be benefited to fight with its arch enemy with greater
ease if Indian Kashmir joins with them.

[mukto-mona] Kokogate and Khaleda Zia

Would 'Kokogate' spare Khaleda Zia's family?
A.H. Jaffor Ullah

Khaleda Zia has every reason to consternate when all the major global news network such as Reuters, AP, AFP, etc., are reporting that her youngest son, Arafat Rahman Koko, is in the thick of an extortion operation centered in Dhaka during 2002-2006 when she was the PM of Bangladesh. For better or worse, let me call this investigation the Kokogate. Bangladesh has never experienced anything big like this and trust me, when it will be over, there will be casualties. This investigation has the underpinning of quite a few foreign governments who are very eager to see that the culprits who ran this extortion scheme are taken to task. ....

Dr. Dipu Moni is Secretary for Women's Affairs of the Bangladesh Awami League,who recently has been appointed as Bangladesh's Foreign Minister. Why is she in the company of major Indian political figures before the election.Her preemptive announcement of forming a Joint Task force to fight terrorism, the sudden agenda to discuss transit access for India makes people wonder, is there a major tilt towards India in Bangladesh's foreign policy- Influenced by India,may be?

RE: [ALOCHONA] Great Mistakes


Re: m Hossain
--------------

If you r keen, You can check few basic facts about human mind and behaviour. on the net.

1. we are all born with a personality TYPE, for many strange and complex reasons, that can not be changed

2. BUT, we can learn to modify our BEHAVIOUR, that can improve the outcome of our actions , in daily life.
If i learn about anger-control, i will be able to walk away from troubles, before i push/punch someone. BUT i am still the same
chap, with same personality. What I have changed, is my response, to an unlikable situation.

3, Changing beleif is also a complex matter. Our belief system is not that fixed/rigid, as u have said. Our value/ belief system changes with experience, education and self-improvement. Me + many of my friends, did not accept homosexuality , while living in Bdesh. After many years of experience, outside
Bdesh, we have learnt to accept that kind of lifestyle, IF we are not affected, in any way,  by that group of people.

4. Self-improvement, self-analysis, flexibility will always offer us ....  a better quality of life ...are we ready to achieve that?

Cheers.

Dear Mr. Mohd. Haque:

 

I hate to bust your bubble about people changing their minds.  However, from my experience, people do not change their fundamental beliefs, especially once they become adults.  Core beliefs remain the same for everyone.  Just ask any psychiatrist they will tell you the same.  I recently watched  a demonstration of this mindset at a conference.  The speaker was a nationally known orator.  He asked people about their opinion on an important issue.  He then went on to lecture in great detail about changing their mind.   At the end of his speech he asked the audience again how many of them changed their minds.  Not a single hand went up.  The speaker concluded that that was normal "People do not change their fundamental beliefs".

 

Question is then why people change political parties? Well, to achieve greater benefits; authority, influence, power and financial.  What I would do is "keep my hopes up but expectations checked".

 

Take care,

 

Nurul Hossain

Dear Br. Islam,

 

Communist, where do you see them?

 

Did you hear what Menon said other day on Ershad's regime, you would lough. Though I do not know the new education minister as a communist but I can reasonably say it is not that communism has failed a greater extent (capitalism too) but these so called communists they have lost everything in BD.

Butterfly left the cocoon, you can not weave anything out of it. I am saying this because if anything would have left within them from that ism - they wouldn't have join AL.

 

What do you say?

Subject: [ALOCHONA] Awami League's Rajakar Minister

Dear Readers,
 
If you had to click this letter as you were shocked at its caption, then my question is 'Why'? Why is it so surprising to even imagine that Awami League would allow a Rajakar to be amongst its chosen league of Ministers? An offshoot of Islami Oikko Jote is already with them. How many of the voters who voted for our new Education Minister knew that this man was a hard-bone Communist and a Chhatro Union activist during his earlier political life? During Hitler's time - Fascism was taught to the children and during Stalin's time - Russian Fascism was taught to the youth. Awami League is often blinded by Bengali Fascism and this Fascist idea leads to the issue of people of non-Bengali origin and their rights to be Bangladeshis even when they are not Bengalis. My good friend Dr. Ohiduzzaman Chand of Dhaka University had recently done a PhD on the issue and I am sure that he has a better response.
 
Nevertheless, as I had predicted in my earlier letter, Awami League has grounded footing of West Bengal style communism in Bangladesh with Mr. Menon and Mr. Inu and now with this Communist Education Minister (in the new camouflage of Awami League) - who I am sure will change the texts massively. If we feel butterflies in our tummies about a Fanatic Religious man as our Education Minister - then what about a Fanatic Communist? I am sure not many know about this man's political convictions and history. Did u know this reader?

Subject: RE: [ALOCHONA] Bangladesh stunned by Awami victory

U simply have to prove me wrong with references. PLEASEprove me wrong and I will be happy to retract my comments.
 
In support of my references to Jalil:
 
He is stooping all the time and he has had been power blind always. Amassed enrmous wealth and formed a bank when he was a pauper only a few years ago. He was apparently grilled by Armed Forces and yet won his seat. He was side-lined by Hasina rightly. When he was asked about MPs procurement of vehciles at tax redemption by a TV journalist in UK - he lost his temper. Hmm...I wonder what sort of illness he has that kept on taking him to hospital all the time during his captive life with the Armed Forces. Hmm..I bet u know!
 
Munni Shaha? U simply need to make an equation of all the TV interviews she has recorded thus far which I have done. You need to watch her coverage of Avishek's wedding and her reactions to that. Well - pls DO get back to me with YOUR references. AWAMI League is an Indian enunch ( I am no BNP or Jamaat lover of present time) and YOU will soon find out. I don't know whether u have had first hand experience of their rule. Why prices come down and crime rate goes up? U need to do a research on cross border smuggling and the relevant criminal records pertaining from that. Well I have done that which many of the so called intellects willingly avoid to expose.

What a shallow analysis of BNP's election debacle.

 

Keep it up and BNP will cease to exist - Inshallah.

 

NB: As an aside, as one who claims to be a human rights advocate your reference to Munni Saha was irreverent and absolutely unnecessary.

Likewise, if you expect to be taken seriously, you must stick to your analysis professionally without making crude remarks like Jalil being a drunkard.

Subject: RE: [ALOCHONA] Bangladesh stunned by Awami victory

Dear Readers,
 
The equation is very simple. The factors that played into Awami League's victory:
 
1. Awami League and BNP are originally almost at par with their number of supporters. Awami league's regular supporters did vote for Awami League as usual and they had no reason to love BNP - so Awami League grabbed the regular devoted votes;
 
2. The Swing Voters wanted to teach BNP a lesson for their corruption and had no other alternative than Mohajot as voting for BNP would have justified Tarek's corrupt practice - so they voted for alternative - ie., Awami League - having no other alternative;
 
3. The BNP supporters or activists were divided as to pro-change and anti-change groups, the defelctors like Bodrudouza and Oli gave reasons to the exploiters and anti-BNP lobbies reason to ponder upon BNP's coordination and disciplined approach;
 
4. BNP stalwarts or the pivotal leaders were kept behind the bars until the last few days on very simple cases which were easily bailable when Awami League had almost all their pivotal figures out of jail all the time (well even drunkard Jalil was out of jail);
 
5. Awami League had always supported the caretaker Govt and had promised to legalise their unconstitutional (although I think constitution itself has become a laugh) works if voted to power;
 
6. Hasina had a few anti-Jamaati Islamic groups in her pocket which got the votes of anti-Jamaati pro-Islamic ppl on their side and Hasian promised not to enact any anti-Islamic laws;
 
7. Ershad commands a few BNP votes as well owing to his military past;
 
8. New generation of voters did not have the experience of seeing Awami League's rule as adults rather they saw the corrupt rule of Tarek which made them anti-BNP and they read Awami League made ppl drink 'Vaater Fan' in drains from adults like us and they were too young to understand that Awami League always failed to control crime;
 
9. Awami League is better in price control when BNP is not good at that and owing to present price hike - ppl could not afford to take chances with any more price hike as that would have meant playing with starvation;
 
10. women voters were successfully convinced that BNP meant oppression on women;
 
11. The media which is ruled by Foortibaaj and Aamodi pro-Bollywood dedicated Amitabh loving reporters like Munni Shaha (who always talks for Hindu greats) ruled non-political channel news rooms like that of ATN and the so called cultural ppl are dying to have a amorous relationship with Indian medias to extend their workfield where Pakistan is a total failure;
 
12. Bangladesh is surrounded by Maoists and communists and Islam has been pocketed by idiots like JMBs and without true Islamic wise leaders - communism in the camouflage of secularism has taken root in newspapers;
 
13. Awami League banked on the issue of bringing the Jamaat leaders to war-tribunals when BNP owing to failure of its leaders (only Salauddin Qader recently accused Awami League of letting thousands of Pakistani soldiers leave the country without war compensations) could not successfully defend the issue with a counter challenge;
 
14. Hasina lobbied abroad (with kaaney betha issue) to win international support for Awami League when BNP concentrated on domestic support only.
 
Hence, I and many like me are not shocked or surprised at all at Awami League's win and I am sure the readers do recall I DID forecast this scenario even in this ALOCHONA online many months ago.
 
I NOW forecast that Awami League will become a good ruler as they may not act like BNP idiots but they will soon find out that Bangladeshi ppl are pro-Islamic when they will start enacting anti-Islamic India loving enactments and this will give rise to a wise and revolutionary Islamic power in Bangladesh with BNP at the helm.
 
Sincerely,

Subject: Re: [ALOCHONA] Bangladesh stunned by Awami victory

The extraordinary support for AWL is definitely a mandate for change in the affairs of the country.
That change is not some quantitative change here & there  but fundamental change in the system of governance in the country. After all, they have the two third majority.
Can Sheikh Hasina & Awami League deliver that change?Can she liberate the country's folk from the yokes of colonial bureaucratic system of governance?
After everything settles down and the elected government begins functioning. The country will go back to the age old colonial system of governance,despite the overwhelming participation of the nation in the election.
From the Secreteriate to the Mahakuma offices, it's the non elected, non answerable bureaucrats who will be the supreme rulers of the day to day affairs of the country. The Minister is not the executive head of the Ministry but the Secretery. Ministers orders cannot be issued as Government orders unless approved by the Secretary. The scenario at the districts, Upozilla's, Cities & Mahakuma's are more bleak. There is zero representation of the public in the governance of those levels.
The notorious system that was devised by the colonial rulers to keep us under subjugation by our own people continues to this day, despite two independences.
   Hope her Government will  hand over the total administration of the Upozillas to the elected chairman & council members.She will face a lot of resistance from the bureaucracy by way of government rules & regulations but she has the backing of the vast majority as well as the two third majority to do and undo anything in the greater interest of the nation. All administrative powers which are excercised by the bureaucrats at those levels should be vested in the elected chairman & council of representatives. This will empower the Upozilla people to be their own rulers.They will truly be independent.
   Until & unless we establish Democracy,self rule at the grassroot levels Democracy will not have its foundation.Opinions of the majority  of citizens, their hopes & aspirations, likings ,dislikings will not be expressed in the affairs of the country, nor their support be of any strength to the elected government.

The handful of elected ministers at the center will be cut off from the people by way of the clandestine bureaucracy. Its imperative that we have elected local government.at the varios administrative levels;bureaucrats at these levels should be answerable to the elected local body.
The vast majority of Bangladeshi' s has shown the keen judgement of right & wrong by routing out the parties of anti liberation past & fundamentalist in nature.They also opted for the less corrupt of the two parties.

Is it too much to ask that these good majority will be allowed to be their own rulers?

RE: [ALOCHONA] hindus in Bdesh


hindus in Bdesh
---------------

I get very annoyed/ frustrated , when people make unreasonable comments about situation with Bdeshis, from hindu and minority background.

In asian countries, minorities always suffer in different form and shape, from time to time.
Mainly because of political exploitation, lack of education, Negative human qualities and poverty.

Can we re-explore an old and tuff Q?...Are hindus in Bdesh , not in a better situation....than
Muslims in India?

I dont have stats..infront of me...to support my statements....but don't you think....that hindus get much better
educational, health, job, safety, social opportunities in Bdesh...than muslima in India?

Look at our universities, medical college, govt. and NGOs.....dont you see plenty of well-placed
people , from hindu background.

And the worse experience in my life? A bunch of Bdeshis muslims...claim themselves to be
super-intellectual, are always ready to protest about misfortune of hindus in Bdesh.
You will never see....them...talking about situation with muslims in India.
What kind of attitude/ neutrality is that?

I will always expect...that we will continue to work hard...so that our minority population ..in Bdesh...
feel safe, happy and satisfied ..as Bdeshi... with equal rights.

Best wishes

Khoda hafez.

RE: [ALOCHONA] Re: Awami League's Rajakar Minister

Dear Ezajur'
I would like to say you, which u know better: BNP Jaamat has created Abdur Rahman,Koko Rahmam,Mamun Rahman,Falu Rahman etc.
The dream of Bangabondhu was to make smile to Krishok Sromik Mehonoti Janata.Thats why he created Baksal with the understanding
of all political parties except JSD.That time JSD under the Leadership of Jalil was not banned.
 
I congrotulate and agree with your comments in last part.Sheikh Mujib is worthy of love...........Hasina 
is benefitting and learning .....
 
I believe Baksal is a sanads of change of life of Krishok Sromik.Sheikh Hasina's govt. already started it by reducing fertilizer price almost half.
It is our new changed Baksal.

Chowdhury

> unconstitutional (although I think constitution itself has become a

> Islamic ppl on their side and Hasian promised not to enact any anti-
> Islamic laws; 7. Ershad commands a few BNP votes as well owing to his

> Awami League made ppl drink 'Vaater Fan' in drains from adults like

> would have meant playing with starvation; 10. women voters were

> greats) ruled non-political channel news rooms like that of ATN and
> the so called cultural ppl are dying to have a amorous relationship

> total failure; 12. Bangladesh is surrounded by Maoists and communists
> and Islam has been pocketed by idiots like JMBs and without true
> Islamic wise leaders - communism in the camouflage of secularism has

> failure of its leaders (only Salauddin Qader recently accused Awami
> League of letting thousands of Pakistani soldiers leave the country
> without war compensations) could not successfully defend the issue
