People of this country are simple but not foolish; they know their friends by deeds, not by mere words.

I feel like writing something after reading Mr. Badrul Ahsan's article on Dr. Kamal. I agree with the writer. It was really amazing to have an apology from such an eminent person.

I cannot remember any other politician who apologised publicly.

I am writing this letter to express my satisfaction with Mr. Ahsan's analysis of one of our key politician's apology. The apology gave a hint that the person had no knowledge of the corruption that his previous 'political' friends indulged in. I did not personally expect such a gesture from a person of his stature.

If he said that he had decided to befriend them because they were lesser of the two evils, I would have understood his point.
