A nation with short memory
We always need bumps to recall things, to see things. We are such a nation! We need a market to crash before getting to know that the market is dangerously overheated. We need people to be dead squeezed between buses, stamped under wheels to see those reckless drivers driving city buses. We need kids to be hit in the head and paralyzed by bricks falling from under-construction buildings to see that the constructors are not taking precautionary steps to prevent accidents! However, we do not need anything to forget all these in no time! We were shocked to see our government's bizarre attempt to grab huge area of cultivable lands, evict inhabitants from their homes to build “Airport” when we are facing food scarcity. In Cox's Bazar, those speedboats are dangerously being driven in the shore packed with hundreds of bathing tourists. Any day we would hear somebody is injured or dead having been hit by one of those boats. Then again, we will take steps to repel them off the shore, not before that. After a while they will come back again.
