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

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

[ALOCHONA] BD claim over its sea territory is not illegal: Dipu Moni

BD claim over its sea territory is not illegal: Dipu Moni

Foreign Minister Dr Dipu Moni has said country's claim over its sea territory is not illegal and maritime dispute will be resolved without annihilating national interest and good relations with other claimant states.At a seminar tiled "Maritime Security of Bangladesh" at Bangladesh Institute of International and Strategic Studies (BIISS) on Thursday, she said "Bangladesh is not claiming sea territory illegally as this right has been given by international law. The chaos arising out of maritime delimitation will be resolved in such a way whereby even a small particle of national interest and good relation with neighbouring countries will not be affected."

About importance of maritime delimitation, she said this is significant due to the reason that there is shortage of resources in Bangladesh and neighbouring states and the seabed is pregnant with huge mineral resources and energies.
Terming BD a peaceful country, the FM said, "As our country is a peaceful country, we would like to maintain good relation with neighbouring states. But it does not mean that we will slip over our rights. So whenever a problem arose, we took initiatives to solve it."

She underlined the need for submitting papers by Bangladesh to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) claiming continental shelf of 350 nautical miles in the bay within 2011 because Myanmar has already submitted while India will submit in May, 2009.Foreign Minister said "For submitting claim over continental shelf by 2011, we are getting ready and preparing documents and papers based on scientific survey."

Replying to a query as to whether the country will seek US support in this regard, she said "We are yet to get US proposal formally. If we get formal proposal, we will consider it subject to protection of national security." About gas exploitation in sea blocks, she said "We will also do so by bilateral dialogue and negotiation with the neighbouring states," she added.
In a query whether present strength of NAVY is enough for coastal security, she said "We will reconsider and scrutinise the issue and we will leave no stone unturned to protect the interest of our country."

She said the sea dispute is as old as the sea itself and the country will go to International Court of Justice for arbitration if maritime dispute is not resolved through dialogue or CLCS. Commodore Khurshid Alam (retd) said out of 29 blocks of Bangladesh, 10 is being claimed by India and 9 by Myanmar. Had the maritime boundary been delimitated in 80's, neighbouring countries would have not been able to claim those. Anyway, we will have to resolve this issue on an urgent basis."

He said continental shelf of 350 nautical miles is measured on the baseline in addition to socio-economic condition of a coastal state. "As our socio-economic condition is worse than that of neighbouring countries, those countries cannot deprive us of our share of the continental shelf," he added.Commodore Moqsumul Quader, DG, Bangladesh Coast Guard, said there is traditional and non-traditional threat to state security and economic security arising out of maritime dispute. Terming sea as frontier of all frontier, he underlined the need for political awareness among people about maritime spaces and exploration of natural resources therein.

[ALOCHONA] Foreign and defence policies lose traction

Foreign and defence policies lose traction
 
M. Shahidul Islam
 
The most painful issue in Indo-Bangladesh relations has been not how India tried to get from Bangladesh everything it wanted, but why Bangladesh has had to behave in the manner it did so far.

   In the process, much of what is achieved by a particular regime has gotten lost at certain points of history, resulting in the loosing of the very tractions needed to pursue a cohesive policy framework that is most conducive to the greater interest of the people. With the AL's coming to office, the nation is faced with such a dilemma once again.

   The most detrimental aspect of such 'shifting of gears' in foreign and defence policies is the abandonment of the very fundamental principles which should serve as the indispensable yardsticks to ensure preservation of vital national interests.

   That not being the case, and the Indo-Bangladesh relations having often traversed such a perilous path due to constant Indian pressures to extract everything from Dhaka in return for some superficial and cosmetic quid pro quo, our power to bargain better has diminished by the day.

   Added to the seemingly chronic abstention from the parliament of the opposition MPs - and the abrupt resignation of the so called 'Guru of Digital Bangladesh', Maj. Gen. Monzurul Alam (retd), from the post of BTRC chairman (for allegedly imposing on him decisions that could undo all that he's done so far) - something seems not quite well within the body politic of the nation.
   
   An unpredictable face off
   Foremost among the troubling signs is an unpredictable face off that had occurred last week between various agencies of the government in the wake of the Indian foreign minister's visit to Dhaka. The 'behind the scene' tug of war relates to the slated discussions on fashioning a regional task force, something the Prime Minister had made a pre-election agenda to implement, if voted to power.

   Sources say the higher echelon of the military objected to the formation of such a force, resulting in the Prime Minister asking the army chief himself to explain out the nuances of it before the Indian foreign minister, personally. Thus came the declaration from Pranob Mukherjee that a bilateral task force, as opposed to the regional one wanted by the Prime Minister- was more realistic.

   This declaration fell in line with the bilateral defence collaborations already in place, especially the evolving military to military ties that are slated to kick off from February 22 when the two armies join in a war game in the Indian state of Assam, for the first time. The exercise continues until March 7.
   Sources also say the army chief had to debrief the Prime Minister later on the content of his discussions with Mr. Mukherjee.

   If that seems like a text book version of classic crisis management with respect to defence policies, the foreign office too also seemed stuck in a limbo while it tried to uphold, on one hand, the pre-election promise of the party in power to stitch together a regional task force - in which no other countries showed any willingness so far - and the ground realities, on the other.

   Meanwhile, the idea of cobbling such a hybrid force having emanated from Washington, only the US's Assistant Secretary for the region, Richard Boucher, termed the idea as 'positive' during his recent Dhaka visit.
   Two deals & a smile

   That does not mean the Indian foreign minister left Dhaka empty-handed and grumpy. Two deals were signed on February 9; one a brand new 'Bilateral investment promotion and protection agreement (Bipa), and the other a renewal of the 1980 trade agreement. The suave top diplomat of India thus managed to leave Dhaka smiling, albeit concerned.

   And, viewed from the vantage of past experiences, Mukherjee's successes in Dhaka far outweighed the bottlenecks seen strewn on his way.For example, the first deal has smoothen ways and means for intrusion into Bangladesh of the previously abandoned TATA like projects, while the second one has started the ball rolling toward signing of a new deal on transit and trans-shipment in coming months.

   Although Article 8 of the 1980 bilateral trade agreement stipulates that both countries will facilitate land, air and water transits of goods, the prospect of allowing land corridor to India always predicated upon Delhi first allowing Bangladesh the similar facilities with Nepal and Bhutan; to allow the two landlocked small neighbours the much wanted privilege of using our port facilities in Mongla and Chittagong, and thus help establish regional connectivity.

   Curiously, that prospect - which was wrapped in an approach to resolve the connectivity issues of all neighbours - has never received any serious attention from Delhi, despite Bangladesh having allowed India inland water transit facilities pursuant to the IWT&T Protocol of 1972 - at Narayanganj, Sirajganj, Khulana and Mongla - and the last CG having signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in mid-February 2008 with respect to mutual air services.
   
   Military needs met
   The 2008 MoU relating to air transportation allowed India to transport by air not only commercial goods, but all types of military hardware to the troubled North Eastern Indian states without Dhaka being granted an opportunity to raise question about the contents of the consignments being transported over its sky.

   Prepared in total secrecy, the MoU also agreed to allow Indian military cargo aircrafts to land and take off inside Bangladesh soil, without any prior notification, according to sources.
   Why then the need of forming a joint task force arises, and, India having procured from the USA about two squadrons of transport aircrafts that can land and take off surreptitiously on any terrain, did not that deal already serve India's military aim more than any desired commercial gains expected out of it?
   
   Is transit a done deal?
   We know the CG has done much of what India wanted although it got stuck with the land transit issue which the Commerce Minister Faroque Khan said would be concluded as a separate agreement in the future.

   Sources however say the transit deal's draft version has already been gathering dust for quite a while, and, we have no reason not to believe. For, on March 13, 2008, Sudhakar Dalela, the councillor for trade and commerce at the Indian High Commission in Dhaka, was quoted by an Indian media outlet as having said the 'Bangladesh government was actively considering the Indian proposal to allow Chittagong port for use by India' to transport goods to Tripura's border town of Sobrom, which is only 75 km from Chittagong port.
   Prior to that, officials from both governments visited the proposed transit zone and prepared reports. The proposed deal, which may be signed any time, contains permission for India to connect Kolkata and Agartala by using Bangladesh land to reduce distance between West Bengal and Tripura from 1,500 km to 350 km.
   
   Undiplomatic verbiage
   The geopolitical health of the region being what it is, all these are vital foreign policy matters with serious military and economic implications. That is why both parties must conduct comprehensive research and look eye ball to eye ball before more inks are spent on signing any more of such agreements.
   Unfortunately, until now, Delhi seems to have preferred talking C when the issues in concern were A & B. That fact has come to light anew when the Indian High Commissioner in Dhaka accused the BNP of talking 'oul foul' (literally meaning bullshitting around) due to BNP's objection to the formation of a task force to combat extremism.

   Unsurprisingly, the High Commissioner's undiplomatic verbiages are in sync with how Delhi has been trying to convince Dhaka over the years of the economic gains to be derived from transit to offset the virtually Himalayan trade imbalance that has piled up in India's favour, despite the two issues not being mutually inclusive.
   
   Trade Vs. transit
   Bilateral trade is something where a label playing field is needed to balance the book. That India's export to Bangladesh overshot $3.6 billion mark in FY 2007-08 alone (which was just $1 billion in FY2001-02) - against Bangladesh's export to India reaching only $350 million - is not indicative of the prevalence of any positive ground for Bangladesh, let alone a label playing field.
   Besides, revenue earned from bilateral trade is always distinct from what can be expected as tolls from Indian transports once they are allowed to cruise through our territory, although, such revenues will constitute an integral part of the overall trade basket.

   Question also remains, in terms of raw cash, how much they could be and are they nearly enough to make any significant difference to propel the trade relationship toward a viable label playing field?

   Studies show Bangladesh is likely to receive, in distant future, $500 million revenue if the prospective toll from a regional connectivity scheme-comprising of transports from Nepal & Bhutan too- is added together. Until Nepal and Bhutan are added to the scheme in a regional approach to connectivity, Bangladesh's annual earning from Indian transport alone can not be more than $100-$150 million at the most, annually.

   Now look from a different angle. In return for signing the air transport deal in February 2008, Bangladesh received a promise of only US$150 million line of credit from India for railways development in bordering areas. The stipulated allocation indicates the money has to be spent to shore up India's interests, and, it was a credit. Yet, this measly offer has created so much of hypes among the CG stalwarts that the army chief rushed to India to upstart the Dhaka-Kolkata train service which has now become a venture lost in the wilderness.
   
   A security nightmare
   That is why we term such exercises as political slam- dunking. Reality is: Not only Bangladesh lacks infrastructure to accommodate Indian transports from Chittagong port to Tripura, an extra vigilance is required at the Tripura border points to guard against cross border arms smuggling of Indian North Eastern insurgents.

   There is also a genuine fear of North-Eastern insurgents ambushing Indian convoys inside Bangladesh, something that might end up in India blaming Bangladesh for its failure to safeguard Indian interests, or in abrupt suspension of such a facility by Bangladesh. Under such a scenario, bilateral ties could become very inimical and the dream of regional economic connectivity for multilateral benefits could face serious jolts.

   Surveillance is also needed to ensure that goods imported for Indian North East via Chittagong port do not end up in Bangladesh markets to inflate the fortunes of Indian importers by inspiring random smuggling - or illegal dumping- inside Bangladesh.

   We also find it tedious that our government has to be reminded time and again that these moves are mere geopolitical agendas aimed at regional hegemony. By obtaining facilities to use Chittagong port to connect Tripura - and the Dhaka-Kolkata rail link having already established transportation of Indian goods between Kolkata and the Northeast States of Assam, Meghalaya, and Arunachal Pradesh - Delhi has obtained much of what it needed to connect with the landlocked North East while our economic future further eclipsed and the tentacle of razor sharp barbed wire continued to chain us from all directions.

[ALOCHONA] Re: A half dead man is elected as President in Bangladesh:

Mr. M.M. Chowdhury, I always asked you not to send me any direct mail, but it seems you do not understand instruction in plain English. This is for the last time I am telling you not to send me any direct mail. Whatever answer you have to give in reply of my posting reply it through the group.

Bombarded posting with lambasting theory does not work anymore. Don't you see the result of December Parliamentary election? Jamaat-BNP anti Awami League propaganda of hatred and scoring with fear put them in the lowest tier of the parliament in the history of Bangladesh.

Asking for resignation from everyone for everything will make your comments irrelevant, though most of your comments are already irrelevant. 

Regards

Shamim

[ALOCHONA] Re: Dr. Dipu Moni is indeed an eminent diplomat of Bangladesh

RE: Mr. Mohammad Hossain,

Nazi Party under Hitler had more roots among a good majority of the
people in Germany during World War II than BNP has in Bangladesh. And
it was indeed a major, I repeat a major political party of Germany.

BNP although a young party founded by a Military General has its roots
among a good majority of the people in Bangladesh. Comparing a mjor
political party with the Nazi party of Hitler is quite outrageous. I
reckon that you a hardcore AL supporter. This just demonstrates how far
people like yourselves will go to demean their political oppositions.
You sound like you are well educated, however, no person of conscience
should be making any comments like this towards their political
oppositions. Remember, BNP was elected to the parliament more than once
since it was founded.

That way the world would be a much better place to live. If you see the
world only in black and white, like former US president Bush you are
going to create only enemies and not many friends. The most outrageous
comment Bush ever made after 911 was “you are either with us or
against us”, there is no middle ground. According to Bush
doctrine no nation could be a non-friend or neutral in its disposition.

Because the party AL has formed long before the Hasina government took
power in Bangladesh. AL has formed in the 50s and there ware
people’s participation. On the other hand BNP was formed in 1978
when a military dictator needed a Nationalist party BNP (as like Hitler
needed a Nazi Nationalist party NSDAP in Germany).

Re: [ALOCHONA] Re: [Dahuk]: Re: [reform-bd] Tareq's greatest fault: Tareq must be brought back in BNP ASAP

Mr. Mahathir...I hate to correct your youthful analysis of Tareq's role, but there is a difference between a youthful "mistake", and willful criminal offense. Tareq's record of tyranny and corruption is not of youthful mistake, but of a criminal mastermind who thought he owns the country and its people. Tareq was not an elected public official, and yet he had so much input and influence on the decision-making regarding our national security, business decisions, budgetary allocation, and everything else. If you don't find his role and his decisions detrimental to our democracy, then you can forgive his "youthful mistakes". But for millions of us who are direct or indirect victims of Tareq et. al. he is no less criminal than those petty thugs and hardcore criminals that he kept as his minions. His father would have been proud. The apple didn't fall far from the tree!

Mr. Ayubi,
 I do agree with you that making yazuddin president and Moeen as army chief superceding 5   senior officers were blunder.
 
 But i don't think that  moeen was picked by tareq. So far i heard , moeen was picked on advise of Sayed iskander. Tareq was in oppositon of  moeen's appointment. hence when Moeen got powr , he was heavy handed on tareq.
 
 Similarly,  i find no link of tareq chossing Yazuddin as he had no contact with him.
 May be he was chosen by some senior leaders who played important role in 90's movement when yzuddin also palyed important role.
 
  Do you have specific inmformation about taeq's choosing these two guys or just guessing?
 
 
 Even if we take it granted  that tareq picked these two guys, theat does not disqualify  him to come back in BNP.
 
 Who did n't do mistake? Mujib  did by removing tajuddin, making safiullah army chief superceding zia . m
Mahathir repent on chossing badawai as his successor , he picked wronmg person anwaer as his deputy.
 
  So such mistake  may be done by young man like tareq.   he must be brought back   so that he can build up BNP from the lesson he has learnt in the last two years.
 
 
 Last but not least, if wrong headed (as declared by court ) can lead Bangladesh , Tareq will certainly lead bangladesh better than her.
 
 
 
  

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 ?

Dear sir,
           It is tareq who got the spineless , gutless  and non political person in the key position of Preidency. He has been a contributing factor in the downfall of BNP. Again it was Tareq who got  Moin U as the Chief of staff of the Army  who turned out as "Astin ka saap" as they say in HIndi/urdu. Do you need any more example of his stupidity? He became too big for his boots and he had to be cut to size. Keep him out of BNP politics and the party will surely be better off without him.

Mr.
Ayubi,
 
It is not tareq, rather absence of tareq is  one of the major cause of debacle of BNP.
 
 If tareq was there there would have co- ordinated election campaign of BNP, there would have  tit for tat for the propagand of AL.
 
 Seeing the success of  hawa Bhaban in election campaigning , candidate selection and coordination of election , forming of allience,  AL and pro-indian media  targeted tareq .
   Hence we have seen that indian propaganda machines even tag  tried tareq with daud ibrahim.
 
  the indian puppt , Moeen controlled CTG could not prove anything against tareq. So they tried to vanish him physically.
 
 But could not get any confession  from tareq as Jalil, Fazlul karim selim etc gave .
 
  corrupt persion can  not stand stead fast  against torture. if tareq were really corrupt, then he would surrender to indian puppet CTG( as corrupts always do,easily give in)  and would live country  to enjoy his shipponed money and easily would give statment of leaving politics like other corrupt politicians such as jalil, anawar hossain Monju  and many more.
 
 But he didn't want to live country.   Tareq's stead fastness make me beleive  ,he is not corrupt.
 
 Moreover, during his  organisational visit  to unions, once he asked one worker  in jessore, what he does ? The worker answered that he do politics.tareq said that a politician must have a legal source of income.
 
a corrupt peson can not say so .
 
tareq's greatest fault was  his attemt to bring all nationalist forces including jatio party of ershad in one platform and make  invincible so that he  can lead a qualition govt for long period like mahathir and made bangladesh better than  malaysia.
 


 
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 ?

All leaders no matter whether it is tareq or Joy must clear their names from the tainted chapter of corruption/drunkrer ed,drug addicts and power abuser otherwise they should not come back.

Tariq is at the cause of present BNP debacle. It will serve BNP interset best if they keep this spoilt brat of Zia out of BNP and the party grows up a truly democratic party. Tariq just do not have the material in him  to lead this problematic country. Leadership has to come up from the grass root level.  Party must have a mechanism to produce leaders for the party. Just like it is done in Britain and other developed countries.

মতবিনিময়ে যেসব দাবি বিএনপি'র তৃণমূল নেতাদের
কাফি কামাল: বর্তমান রাজনৈতিক পরিস্থিতিতে জামায়াতের সঙ্গে বিএনপি জোটবদ্ধ থাকলে দলের লাভের চেয়ে ক্ষতিই বেশি হবে। এখন রাজনৈতিক দুর্বলতাকে অস্বীকার করলে ভবিষ্যতে মুখোমুখি হতে হবে আরও কঠিন বিপর্যয়ের। এবার কোন পকেট কমিটি মেনে নেয়া হবে না। বিতর্কিত দুর্নীতিবাজদের বাদ দিয়ে কাউন্সিলের মাধ্যমে নির্বাচিত কমিটি গঠন করে সংগঠনকে গতিশীল করতে হবে। দলের সিনিয়র যুগ্ম মহাসচিব তারেক রহমান দলকে সাংগঠনিকভাবে গোছাতে যে উদ্যোগ নিয়েছিলেন তা অব্যাহত রাখতে হবে। তাকে আবারও দলের মূল নেতৃত্বে নিয়ে আনতে হবে। এ নির্বাচন কমিশনের অধীনে নির্বাচনে যাওয়া উচিত হয়নি। একটি সম্মানজনক সমাধানের মাধ্যমে বিএনপি'র সংসদে যাওয়া ও ইতিবাচক ভূমিকা রাখা উচিত। সংসদে যাওয়ার বিকল্প নেই। বিএনপি'র সাংগঠনিক পুনর্গঠনকে কেন্দ্র করে ৩রা ফেব্রুয়ারি থেকে দেশের বিভিন্ন জেলা থেকে দলের কেন্দ্রীয় কার্যালয়ে সাক্ষাৎকার ও মতবিনিময় সভায় যোগ দেয়া তৃণমূল নেতারা প্রতিদিনই কেন্দ্রীয় নেতাদের এসব দাবি জানাচ্ছেন। গতকাল বিভিন্ন বিভাগীয় সাংগঠনিক দায়িত্বপ্রাপ্ত কেন্দ্রীয় নেতা ও তৃণমূল নেতাদের সঙ্গে কথা বলে এ তথ্য জানা গেছে। গত ৩রা ফেব্রুয়ারি থেকে শুরু হওয়া সাংগঠনিক পুনর্গঠন প্রক্রিয়ায় গতকাল পর্যন্ত ১৪টি জেলার প্রায় দু'শতাধিক উপজেলা ও পৌর কমিটির তৃণমূল নেতারা সাক্ষাৎকার ও মতবিনিময় সভায় অংশ নিয়ে তাদের বক্তব্য তুলে ধরেছেন। প্রথম দিন মাগুরা, দ্বিতীয় দিন হবিগঞ্জ ও তৃতীয় দিন পটুয়াখালী, ব্রাহ্মণবাড়িয়া ও জামালপুর, চতুর্থ দিন সুনামগঞ্জ ও নড়াইল, পঞ্চম দিন নওগাঁ, ঝালকাঠি ও লক্ষ্মীপুর এবং গতকাল মেহেরপুর ও চুয়াডাঙ্গা এবং ফেনী জেলার নেতারা মতবিনিময় সভায় অংশ নেন। ছয়টি বিভাগীয় সাংগঠনিক টিমের নেতৃত্বে এ প্রক্রিয়া চলবে ২৮শে ফেব্রুয়ারি পর্যন্ত। তৃণমূল নেতারা বলেন, নির্বাচন ও সাংগঠনিক জোটবদ্ধতার বিষয়টিকে আলাদা বিবেচনা করে জামায়াতের ওপর নির্ভরশীলতা কমাতে হবে। নবম জাতীয় নির্বাচনে জামায়াত নির্ভরশীলতার কারণে ফল বিপর্যয় হয়েছে। অনেক এলাকায় বিএনপির মধ্যে অন্তর্কোন্দল সৃষ্টি করেছে জামায়াত। তৃণমূল নেতাদের মতে, একটি সম্মানজনক সমাধানের মাধ্যমে বিএনপি'র সংসদে যাওয়া ও ইতিবাচক ভূমিকা রাখা উচিত। সংসদে যাওয়ার বিকল্প নেই। তারা বলেন, এবার কোন পকেট কমিটি চাই না। পকেট কমিটি করা হলে তা মেনে নেয়া হবে না। বিতর্কিত ও দুর্নীতিবাজদের বাদ দিয়ে কাউন্সিলের মাধ্যমে নির্বাচিত কমিটি গঠন করে সংগঠনকে গতিশীল করতে হবে। ২৯শে ডিসেম্বরের জাতীয় নির্বাচনে ফল বিপর্যয়ের কারণ বিশ্লেষণ করে তারা বলেন, রাজনৈতিক দল দায়িত্বপালনে ব্যর্থ হওয়ায় ও রাজনৈতিক সিদ্ধান্তের নানা ত্রুটির ফাঁক-ফোকরে বিস্তার লাভ করেছে দেশী-বিদেশী ষড়যন্ত্র। রাজনৈতিক নেতাদের বিতর্কিত করার মাধ্যমে প্রভাবিত করা হয়েছে নির্বাচনকে। বরগুনা পৌর বিএনপি'র সাংগঠনিক সম্পাদক শফিকুল আলম টিপু বলেন, দেশী-বিদেশী ষড়যন্ত্রের অংশ হিসেবে প্রশাসনের পক্ষপাতিত্বের পাশাপাশি শীর্ষ নেতাদের ভুল সিদ্ধান্ত, বেইমানি, দলের একটি অংশের ষড়যন্ত্র, সংস্কারপন্থি প্রার্থী ও স্থানীয় নেতাকর্মীদের দূরত্বের কারণে এ বিপর্যয় হয়েছে। এছাড়া দলের কিছু সিনিয়র নেতা নির্বাচন বাণিজ্য করেছেন। সংস্কারপন্থি প্রার্থীদের প্রতিনিধি হিসেবে মেনে নিতে পারেনি তৃণমূল নেতাকর্মীরা। চুয়াডাঙ্গার আলমডাঙ্গা উপজেলা বিএনপি সম্পাদক মজিবুর রহমান বলেন, বেশির ভাগ প্রার্থীর সঙ্গে স্থানীয় কর্মী-সমর্থকদের যোগাযোগ বিচ্ছিন্নতা, প্রার্থী নির্বাচনে ভুল ও জোটের শরিক জামায়াতের নিষ্ক্রিয়তার কারণে নির্বাচনী প্রচার ছিল সীমাবদ্ধ। গত দুই বছরে নানা নির্যাতনের কারণে ভয়ে কর্মীরা সক্রিয় হতে পারেনি। দলের নির্বাচনী বিপর্যয়ে সাংগঠনিক ক্ষতির চেয়ে সামাজিক ক্ষতি হয়েছে অনেক বেশি। তৃণমূল নেতাদের মতে, এ নির্বাচন কমিশনের অধীনে নির্বাচনে যাওয়া উচিত হয়নি। উপজেলা নির্বাচনে কেন্দ্রীয় কমিটির ত্বরিত সিদ্ধান্ত ও জোরালো ভূমিকার প্রয়োজন ছিল। চুয়াডাঙ্গা সদর থানা বিএনপি সম্পাদক রেজাউল করিম মুকুট বলেন, দুই বছরে বিভিন্ন কারণে বিএনপি কয়েক ভাগে ভাগ হয়ে পড়ায় নির্বাচনে বিপর্যয় ঘটেছে। বিভক্ত দল নিয়ে যুদ্ধে জয়ী হওয়া যায় না। তৃণমূল নেতাদের মতে, দু'বছর পরপর কমিটি গঠনের কথা থাকলেও অনেক এলাকায় কমিটি গঠন হয়েছে ছয় থেকে আট বছর আগে। মেহেরপুর জেলা বিএনপির ভারপ্রাপ্ত সম্পাদক ইলিয়াস হোসেন বলেন, বিতর্কিত নেতাদের দলের ফ্রন্টলাইন থেকে আপাতত দূরে রেখে স্বচ্ছ ও ত্যাগী নেতৃত্বকে সামনে আনতে হবে। কমিটিতে ঘটাতে হবে নবীন ও প্রবীণের ভারসাম্যপূর্ণ সমন্বয়। সাংগঠনিক পরিধি বাড়াতে সংগঠনকে গণমুখী করে তুলতে হবে। ফেনীর কয়েকটি উপজেলা বিএনপি'র সিনিয়র নেতাদের দাবি, জেলায় দলের ভাইস চেয়ারম্যান মেজর (অব) সাঈদ এস্কান্দারের হস্তক্ষেপ বন্ধ করতে হবে। বরগুনা পৌর বিএনপি সম্পাদক আনোয়ার হোসেন বলেন, দলের সাবেক মন্ত্রী-এমপিদের বিরুদ্ধে দুর্নীতির অভিযোগ একেবারে মিথ্যা নয়। অনেক মন্ত্রী-এমপি নির্বাচনে ক্ষমতার যথেচ্ছ ব্যবহার করেছেন। তবে সত্যতার চেয়ে প্রচার হয়েছে অনেক বেশি। কোন কোন ক্ষেত্রে লঘু অপরাধে বিশেষ আদালতে গুরুতর শাস্তি দেয়া হয়েছে। চুয়াডাঙ্গার আলমডাঙ্গা পৌর বিএনপি সভাপতি খন্দকার হামিদুল ইসলাম আজম বলেন, তারেক রহমান দলকে সাংগঠনিকভাবে গোছাতে যে উদ্যোগ নিয়েছিলেন তা অব্যাহত রাখতে হবে। বাড়াতে হবে দলের কেন্দ্রীয় নেতাদের সাংগঠনিক সফর ও সম্মেলন কর্মসূচি। তারেক রহমানের সাংগঠনিক দক্ষতার কারণে তাকে টার্গেট করেই বিতর্কিত করা হয়েছে। তাকে আবারও দলের মূল নেতৃত্বে নিয়ে আসতে হবে। গত নির্বাচনে তৃণমূল নেতাদের মধ্যে তীব্রভাবে তার অভাব অনুভূত হয়েছে। তিনি যে সাংগঠনিকভাবে দলকে গোছাতে শুরু করেছিলেন সেভাবে হলে এতবড় ভরাডুবি হতো না। এদিকে গতকাল মতবিনিময় সভা চলাকালে তৃণমূল নেতারা একে অন্যের সামনে স্বাভাবিকভাবে কথা বলতে অস্বস্তিবোধ করছিলেন। বরগুনা সদর বিএনপি'র সাংগঠনিক সম্পাদক আবদুল হক হাওলাদার বলেন, অতীতের ধারাবাহিকতায় চাপিয়ে দেয়া কমিটি মেনে নেবে না তৃণমূল নেতাকর্মীরা। ১১ই জানুয়ারির পর থেকে বিভিন্ন নির্যাতন নিপীড়নের ফলে তারা প্রতিপক্ষ রাজনৈতিক দলের পাশাপাশি দলীয় কেন্দ্রীয় নেতাদের ওপরও ক্ষুব্ধ। ফেনীর দাগনভূঞা উপজেলা বিএনপি'র সভাপতি দেলোয়ার হোসেন ও সাধারণ সম্পাদক আবদুল মতিন চৌধুরী বলেন, বর্তমান পরিস্থিতিকে সূুক্ষ্মভাবে বিচার বিশ্লেষণ করে দলের তৃণমূল থেকে কেন্দ্র পর্যায়ের নেতৃত্ব ঢেলে সাজাতে হবে। জেলা পর্যায়ে অনেক ত্যাগী ও প্রজ্ঞাবান নেতা আছেন যারা দলের কেন্দ্রীয় নেতৃত্বে আসার যোগ্যতা রাখেন। এবার দলের চেয়ারপারসনকে নেতৃত্ব নির্বাচনে কঠিন মানসিকতার পরিচয় দিয়ে তাদের সামনে নিয়ে আসতে হবে। ভাঙতে হবে বিভিন্ন জেলা কেন্দ্রীয় কোটারি চক্র।
 


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 ?

[mukto-mona] Darwin Day Rally and Seminar 2009

Darwin day rally and seminar ended successfully. I attended the rally
and seminar. It was very enthusiastic. There was a huge crowd and long
line at the rally. Obviously, I didn't stand in the rally line for long,
as I was busy taking pictures. I have uploaded all 45 pictures of the
rally and seminar on Facebook. An album named "Darwin Day Rally and
Seminar 2009" has been created at my profile. Here is the link:

Everyone can see the pictures. Spread the success of Darwin Day
celebration in Bangladesh.

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

Hi Cyrus:

You summarized it well!

I was hoping the "Change Man" himself would elaborate. he shys from any real debate. But loves to give bhashons whenever he gets a chance.

What a bunch of pompus jokers we have on this list! Their choice of cyber names cracks me up too!.  Whats with the Mahathir dude?

On  a more serious note, the kindergarden level of discourse among the best & brightest  of bangladesh (expatraites in North American and Europe) is hugely worrisome. Shows how low our educational standards have fallen in the last 35 years! We have a bunch of half educated people!

Is it the phrase "buffer state" that bothers people and throws everyone in a meaningless tantrum? Or is it that ISI may be fighting a proxy war by recruiting goons from Jamaat/Shibir et.al., and that Bangladesh govt. HAS given shelter to insurgents and ISI operatives in the northern/north eastern parts of Bangladesh, and that Bangladesh has been (ab)used by both India and Pakistan to do their dirty work?
 
What Ms. Moni should have said in response, instead of sitting there like a door knob, is that in the event BD govt discovers that foreign operatives from any country (yes, that includes India too) are trying to destablize other countries by using BD as a base, they would be brought to justice. Until then, it would be prudent not to pass judgment on a nation or a democratically elected government, based on some loose evidence that bangladeshis may be involved in some shady work in India. That would have shut the Indian counterparts up!

"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
