Overseas branches of political parties
Dr Reza Khan, Head Of Zoo Section, Public Parks And Horticulture Department, Dubai Municipality
Bangladesh should never allow any political party to have an overseas branch for two simple reasons.1. This will allow political parties to siphon money out of the country or bring in foreign money. 2. Secondly, it will create a new law and order situation in foreign countries. For example, the UAE nationals cannot indulge in political activities in their country. How would their government allow Bangladeshis to be involved in politics? Moreover, we are politically so intolerant to each other that each political party has more than three offshoots. All these factions are always clamouring for a position in the local community and fighting all the time. Once the government allows any party to have overseas branch, infighting would extend beyond our borders creating immense problem for the host nation. They would declare overseas Bangladeshis as 'unwanted' elements. The result of which would be devastating for our expatriate community, as these countries would stop recruiting Bangladeshis considering them as 'trouble makers'.
