Rules are different for us
Anonymous, Dhaka
I write to you, to every conscious, patriotic citizen of Bangladesh, that I have started to feel we are slowly inching towards our same old nature and "corrupt" schemes and designs, waiting to find 'free for all' conditions and get back to old habits of bribery, lethargy and mismanagement in every sphere of our lives!Chilling tales have come to the fore, and the same old political 'personalities' are talking about restoring democracy when they are the ones to destroy it in the first place by demonstrating sheer irresponsibility! Quite a few innocent people died. Is anybody held responsible for such misdeeds? In the name of democracy and the 'people card', some are simply impatient to get back to the chair, so that all hell may be let loose again! Foreign missions, EU, UK, USA, and now even India, are advising us how to practise democracy and secularism, and almost everything! They are trying to advise the CTG when and how to hold elections, so that a new government of their choice can be installed! When plundering was the order of the day for the last ten years, where was their free advice? Do we go to advise them? Why is no lesson of democracy given to Egypt, KSA, UAE, Oman, Kuwait, Syria and some African countries? Because of "Democracy of Convenience"? Many educationists write from abroad about the task the CTG has to perform, and they support its measures. Please do not be impatient, wait and see the outcome. We simply love the nation's new found freedom, and so do many NRBs. So, my request to the CTG: please carry on and show results. Most people want the reforms to go ahead. Please ensure peace and sanity, then ask the EC to hold the elections.
