Presumably Tarek and Coco's computerized cell phone will run off Joy's cell phone network...?
All seems to fit together very nicely.

The subject line "Digital Bangladesh?" is a sarcastic jab at the election campaign promises of the AL who won a landslide victory at the last election and is now the major party of a coalition that has formed the Govt.
Like the rest of the Alochona members I got the joke, and having gotten it I should feel pretty smart and full of a sense of superiority. Or so is the intention of bd-mailer who never tires of these jabs at the current Govt. After all, here I am typing on my computer and not at that muddy paddy field where a family is hard at work planting the rice. Our intrepid bd-mailer, one presumes, never leaves his/her computer to glance at the beautiful skies, whether full of rain-clouds or bright blue with cotton flakes of clouds, of these monsoon months of Bengal. He and his computer are probably nowhere near Bangladesh.
I was actually thoroughly delighted by the photograph of this wonderful scene of Bangalee innovation in the midst of want and dearth. I said a prayer of goodwill for the boy riding on the 'moi' pulled by his parents wading in the rich mud. How much happier is he than the boy of his age stuck in the city of Dhaka with no playground either in school or in the neighborhood of his apartment complex.
What would have pleased bd mailer and his dumbed down cheerleaders in Alochona? the picture of a 4-yr old in front of a desktop computer playing violent video games? May be thats what the BNP thugs would publicize when they come to POWER with the message that the real 'Digital Bangladesh' is one where you abandon agriculture and devote yourself to money-laundering a la Tarek Zia and Coco using computerized cell phone or other gizmo.
