"Where, after all, do universal human rights begin?
In small places, close to home--so close and so small
that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. Yet
they are the world of the individual person;the
neighbourhood he lives in;the school or college he attends;
the factory, farm, or office where every man,woman,and
child seeks equal justice, equal, opportunity,equal dignity
without discrimination. Unless these rights have meaning
there, they have little meaning anywhere"
Eleanor Roosevelt, 1958
don't you think my friends...who are writing so.. intensely re. Bangladesh issues....we had to leave our own country.. for our basic rights and our leaders are having all 'glorious' privileges?

Re Politics of disarray
Because of his very polite and humble nature, Abed Khan, editor of Kalerkantha could not make the real point which has been bluntly and befittingly pointed out by one of our best known on line authors for wisdom and uprightness, Akbar Hossain. His advice to the leaders of Bangladesh for political Harikiri following Pakistani example is very timely when the country is sitting on the volcano of War criminals trial. The day long suffocation of the capital caused by AL on the occasion of the home coming of the Prime Minister, showed disrespect to the people and their feelings of freedom. AL can hold a Paltan Moidan rally to celebrate the progress of the nation under the leadership of our dear lreader Sheikh Hasina and take that opputunity to apologise to the nation for their acts on PM's home coming.
