Same old story?
Modest and reasonable media coverage is helpful for keeping the people abreast with what is happening in the country. But excessive propaganda reminds us of similar activities of the previous ruling 4- Party Alliance and thus of the proverb-"Old wine in a new bottle". Student, youth and volunteer wings of the ruling Awami League are getting increasingly involved in snatching tenders, contracts, extortion, occupying student halls, controlling admission in educational institutes in the rural areas, etc.
The party high command did issue a note of caution which was nipped in the bud and now it is either ignoring or overlooking, giving indirect approval of their activities. In the same way, the opposition 4-Party Alliance, in their efforts to bring down the govt., is using walkouts from parliament sessions and holding rallies like human chains demanding the fulfilment of those public demands just after four months, which they could not fulfil in four years.
So what is new? Where is the so-called "Din Badal"? Is there any change in the lot of the common people, except the announcement of the change/shift of the clock by one hour from June?
And so, we, the potential investors living abroad, feel frustrated and disappointed.
