Passport issue
A sufferer, Dhaka
The present government is trying to eliminate corruption. Lt Gen.(Retd) Hasan Mashud Chowdhury is trying to create public awareness to get rid of the evil but unfortunately corruption is mixed with our blood, and without changing the whole blood the germ cannot be eliminated!Getting a passport is a fundamental right of every citizen. If you go to the western world or even Singapore, you need not be worried about getting it. In Bangladesh, however, it is the toughest thing if you do not bribe the police or passport officials. I submitted all necessary documents for my wife and daughter to get their passports. The passports were supposed to be delivered on 29/04/07 but God knows when these will be given. Like me there are lots of sufferers. My earnest request to the authorities: please do something so that this fundamental right is not ignored.
