[chottala.com] An undemocratic law proposed here may be necessary to strengthen democracy

An undemocratic law proposed here may be necessary to strengthen democracy

The usual neglect of the fact that most of the population of is uneducated is a problem for democratic system.

 

Here is the proposed law - the sons, daughters, wife or husband of any elected official can not contest for seat for any elected office. This prohibition would prevail until the national literacy rate crosses 90% mark. In other words, unless and until the literacy rate of our country reaches at least 90% rate and maintains that rate (at the minimum), no first family members of any elected official will be allowed to contest in any kind of elections.

This proposed law should become effective from the next election. Since the literacy rate currently is below 90%, it will automatically ban all the first family members of all the MPs, Chairmans, Presidents, Members, etc to compete in election. Also, the members themselves should be prohibited to contest after second time, until the literacy rate is 90%.

 

The underlying assumption behind this proposed law is that illiteracy makes the electorate more susceptible to wrong choice while voting for a office. And most of the time, this mistake is demonstrated by the choice of family member of a previous or sitting official. This would also work as an inspiration for the responsible elected officials to work hard to achieve certain goals, it is expected.

 

There would be certain criticism of this proposed law w.r.t. human rights issues. Clearly, this law if made, will infringe on the human rights of certain portion of selected population. Many of those cases might be unwanted and unfair.

To those, we want to point out to think of this issue from a different perspective. Isn't right to education a basic human right? If so, how many people are denied of that human rights? Many of them even do not know or understand this very issue, isn't it? So, if you think the proposed law might work as an incentive to remove this widespread human rights violation that is caused by illiteracy, we hope that you will be willing to live with this undemocratic law for sometime.

If you thought some of the ideas are worth of your reading time, please forward it to others. If you have an ear to the members of the CTG, policy makers and analysts, please forward it to them. If you have an ear to the journalists and news editors of the electronic media, discuss it with them. Hope they would look at the suggestions and give due diligence.

Thanks for your time,

We have not seen the Liberation War, but we know if we can free the country from corruption first, we will eventually get to other dreams soon. Because of corruption, we could not even get into information highway for years, let alone other dreams!

This is the kind of article for which we started this column. Because of ongoing mess, a gift from our older generation, we often get diverted. Now that it seems some sanity is returning in Bangladesh, we would try to go back to our original plan.

[chottala.com] Things you need to know about General Moeen U Ahmed

Everything you need to know about General Moeen U Ahmed

General Moeen U. Ahmed's career details are available online. It says , of course, that he is the first Chief of Staff to be commissioned amongst the officers who graduated in independent Bangladesh. A listing is also given of the commands that he held. However, it is clear on close scrutiny that no dates are given on when he assumed command of these units or when he got his promotions.

General Moeen U Ahmed's army career stalled until BNP was elected to power in 2001. General Ahmed is from Noakhali, in South-Eastern Bangladesh. Noakhali is close to Feni, birthplace and bastion of BNP supremo Khaleda Zia and her family. General Ahmed made this geographical proximity his selling-point and started strenuous efforts to ingratiate himself with the BNP power-brokers. He paid special attention to the two men who would emerge as the ultimate arbitrators of all military postings and promotions for the army, navy, and the air force during 2001-2006: Khaleda Zia's brother Major (ret.) Sayeed Iskandar her nephew, Saiful Islam (Duke).

Incidentally, these two men have a lot to answer for. They have been responsible for ruining some of the most promising men in our armed forces; men who were too straight-laced and professional to kowtow to them. Fortunately for him and unfortunately for us, Ahmed was not one of them. He ingratiated himself with these two men very successfully, and managed to get for himself a prize command in Chittagong and also positioned himself as a key contender for the post of Chief of Army Staff.

Incidentally, these two men are the only two members of Khaleda Zia's family who were part of the government apparatus for the last five years, but have not been asked to provide wealth reports to the current military government.

Anyone familiar with power politics in Bangladesh is aware of the intense speculation and jockeying that precedes the appointment of the Chief of Army Staff. Various factions vie for the ear of the Prime Mnister to get their own candidates chosen. There was general consensus that Lt. Gen. Hasan Mashud had been an excellent Chief of Army Staff, and appointing another decent general after him to lead the army would have gone down well with the country in general and the armed forces in particular. Quite a few members of Zia's kitchen cabinet were against this appointment going to a political general like Moeen U Ahmed, and her military secretary went as far as to write an official note recommending her against this appointment.

History, however, was on General Moeen's side. During her previous administration, when it came time to pick a Chief of Army Staff who would serve through the 1996 election, Begum Zia opted for efficiency and service seniority over political expediency, and picked Lt. Gen. Nasim over commanders perceived to be more loyal to the government. Proving the adage that no good deeds go unpunished in Bangladeshi politics, Lt. Gen. Nasim promptly tried to stage a coup and overthrow the government. Keeping that particular lesson in mind, Zia decided to take the low route this time and pick a political general who would know during every second of his job that he was only there thanks to his servilityto his political masters. This, she thought, would ensure his loyalty.

The rest, of course, is history. General Moeen staged a bloodless coup on January 11th and imposed indirect military rule; he has ruled Bangladesh in all but name for the last eight months, given himself a promotion to four-star General, changed the command structure of Bangladesh's armed forces in order to manage the nice shiny fourth star on his car, and become the first Army Chief in the last twenty years to have his effigy burnt by Dhaka University students.

 So this is where our Chief of Army Staff has been. What do you think his future plans are? And more importantly, what do these plans include for us, and for the future of Bangladeshi democract? Remember, whatever these plans are, he'll be trying really hard to sell them to various American officials, during his visit to the US, as the best thing that could possibly happen to Bangladesh at this juncture.

[chottala.com] Attn: Mr. Alim Sharif - Re: How General Moeen U Ahmed earns over 66 lakh taka in one year?

 
WRT:
 
Dear All
No one should be above the laws, no matter what kind of
camouflage he/she is wearing. The question regarding the source
of earning 66 lakh Taka in one year by an armed force personal is
not baseless. It is very clear from the prospectus that General
Moeen U Ahmed made the transaction within in one year.
[see
page number 20]
 
General Moeen U.  pretends to be a "Transperency Guru" and
a firm believer of "the rights of the public for freedom of
information".  He may be given some benefits of doubt.
 
But, since the question has been raised he should come forward
and disclose his finances and the details of accumulation of wealth
over the years. He may have gotten the money from his rich
father-in-law as gift..... he may have gotten it from foreign
sources .... According to Bangladesh Board of revenue regulations all
foreign earnings needs to be reported in the yearly Tax returns. So
all claims about the legitamacy of his wealth can be proved from
his returns. Some apologists and cronies like Mr. Alim Sharif
are trying to make points purely on heresy and imaginary
hypothesis. Mr. Alim sharif mentions:
 
"#1. As a General he also gets compensated from United
Nations  when his country (Bangladesh) sends army to the UN
peacekeeping troops. Please try to find out how much it is (you will be
surprised)."
 
Why doesn't Mr. Alim Sharif  surprize us with the correct information about the actual figure with some referencable documents? Also
his mention of  "any  General (or a Commander-in-Chief )gets
compensated from United Nations when his country (Bangladesh)
sends army to the UN peacekeeping troops"  is untrue.  If this was
true, it would be purely a bribe. UN pays only for active duty in the
field [General Moeen U. served in UNAMIR, Rwanda under United
Nations for a very short time long before he became the armed forces
chief. He also served as a defence advisor in Bangladesh High
commission in Pakistan.]
 
The corruption in Bangladesh is deep rooted, much deeper than we normally
think. We are only putting the blame of corruption on the politicians.
However, there are corruption in every sector of the the country and the
armed forces is no exception.....
 
By the way, who would have known about General Muhammad Ershad's
rampant corruption, another Bangladesh Army alumni in early eightees
when he became the President and vouched his Jihad against corruption.

Guys,

Thank you for your comments.

I personally do not think that someone (we) needs to defend General
Moeen U Ahmed for this personal fortune.

Over the years in his career he made enough money (salary,
compensation, award, paid positions, etc)

Question about where General Moeen U Ahmed got 66 lakh is absolutely
stupid. He is a carrier army office who has affiliation with lots of
foreign institutions like UN apart from his own salary and
compensation as chief.

Hello,

Why do you think that 99 lakh is a huge amount of money for someone
like General Moeen U Ahmed?

Let me give you some examples of where General Moeen U Ahmed can earn
this amount of money.

#1. As a General he also gets compensated from United Nations when
his country (Bangladesh) sends army to the UN peacekeeping troops.
Please try to find out how much it is (you will be surprised).

#2. During training and other posting to any other foreign countries
army officers also get compensated in USA dollars apart from their
salaries. All these years General Moeen U Ahmed must have attended
multiple trainings, joint army session, etc.

I worked for UN for little over a year and I have few friends who are
still in the UN. Moreover, I have been working in USA for about 10
years now as an enterprise architect.

I should say you guys actually do not have any idea about what kind
of money CEOs an other high officials are making theses days ..


I do not want any comments ..........please. Thank you.

Re: [chottala.com] How General Moeen U Ahmed earns over 66 lakh taka in one year?

Dear All

Yes - I fully agree with Shamim Hasnain for his
valuable comments. Please do not speculate anything
which you do not know or involved personally. You must
get proof in your hand on the corruption done by Gen.
Moeen. He is not a corrupt person rather saved our
country from the corrupt politicians about say top 200
corrupt people. Out of 200 or 100 or 2000 does not
count any percentage of 150 m people of our country.
It is Gen Moeen who must be remembered for his very
sincere work to save our country. Please be positive
and contribute positively to help irridicate
corruption as much as possible by the present honest
and neutral government. I personally do not believe
the corrupted people of the past who will again try to
do what they did for the past 36 years.

Constructive suggestions will help the present
government to do better job which is desiarable by
most of us ( but not by Mr. Mohatir of bd.) whom I
found to be biased and politically motivated or
negatively charged man or related to a party or does
not like present government. But most of us (majority)
would like to see better works done by the present
government which nobody could do ( I understand ).

Thank you very much (Shamim Hasnain) for your valuable
comments.

[chottala.com] Ittefaq decides to remove Manju as publisher

Ittefaq decides to remove Manju as publisher
 
 
Tue, Oct 16th, 2007 10:48 pm BdST
 
Dhaka, Oct 16 (bdnews24.com) -- Ittefaq Group of Publications Ltd has decided to remove Anwar Hossain Manju as publisher of the Bangla-language newspaper Ittefaq, his brother and information adviser Mainul Hosein said Tuesday.

"The board of directors (of Ittefaq Group of Publications Ltd) decided against him (Manju) because he was convicted in a narcotics case and is absconding," Mainul told bdnews24.com by phone.

At a meeting on October 10, four company directors voted 3-1 for the removal of Manju, Mainul said.

Two directors—Manju himself and wife Tasmima Hossain—were absent from the meeting.

They are on the run.

"We did this in order to keep the newspaper afloat. Under the law, if a publisher is convicted of criminal charges and remains on the run for more than six months, the newspaper's declaration will be cancelled," the adviser said.

There was no clear decision on Manju's post as editor.

Mainul said: "We will decide that later."

Rahat Khan is acting editor of the newspaper.

Mainul, also publisher of the English-language daily The New Nation, said the deputy commissioner's office had already been informed about the planned changes in the newspaper's management.

Saju Hosein, the information adviser's wife, will take over Manju's responsibilities as publisher for the time being.

Manju was sentenced to five years in jail in a June 26 verdict by a Dhaka court.

[chottala.com] Putin warns US against attacking Iran

Putin warns US against attacking Iran

By VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 22 minutes ago

TEHRAN, Iran - Russian leader Vladimir Putin met his Iranian counterpart Tuesday and implicitly warned the U.S. not to use a former Soviet republic to stage an attack on Iran. He also said

At a summit of the five nations that border the inland Caspian Sea, Putin said none of the nations' territory should be used by any outside countries for use of military force against any nation in the region. It was a clear reference to long-standing rumors that the U.S. was planning to use Azerbaijan, a former Soviet republic, as a staging ground for any possible military action against Iran.

"We are saying that no Caspian nation should offer its territory to third powers for use of force or military aggression against any Caspian state," Putin said.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad also underlined the need for solidarity.

"The Caspian Sea is an inland sea and it only belongs to the Caspian states, therefore only they are entitled to have their ships and military forces here," he said.

A State Department spokesman, Tom Casey, said the United States is not planning military action against Iran.

"We are pursuing a diplomatic course with respect to Iran that includes with respect to its nuclear program as well as with respect to its support for terrorism and other issues that are out there," he said.

Putin refused to set a date for the start-up of Iran's first nuclear power plant, to be built by Russia.

"I only gave promises to my mom when I was a small boy," Putin told Iranian reporters, when asked whether he could promise that the plant that Russia is building would be launched before his term ends next May.

At the same time, he said, "We are not going to renounce our obligations."

Putin's careful stance suggested that Russia is seeking to preserve solid ties with Iran without angering the West. A clear pledge by Putin to quickly finish the plant would embolden Iran and could complicate international talks on the nuclear standoff.

Putin, whose trip to Tehran is the first by a Kremlin leader since World War II, warned that energy pipeline projects crossing the Caspian could only be implemented if all five nations that border the sea support them.

Putin did not name a specific country, but his statement underlined Moscow's strong opposition to U.S.-backed efforts to build pipelines to deliver hydrocarbons to the West, bypassing Russia.

"Projects that may inflict serious environmental damage to the region cannot be implemented without prior discussion by all five Caspian nations," he said.

Other nations bordering the Caspian Sea and in attendance at the summit are: Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan.

The legal status of the Caspian — believed to contain the world's third-largest energy reserves — has been in limbo since the 1991 Soviet collapse, leading to tension and conflicting claims to seabed oil deposits.

Iran, which shared the Caspian's resources equally with the Soviet Union, insists that each coastal nation receive an equal portion of the seabed. Russia, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan want the division based on the length of each nation's shoreline, which would give Iran a smaller share.

Putin's visit took place despite warnings of a possible assassination plot and amid hopes that personal diplomacy could help offer a solution to an international standoff on Iran's nuclear program.

Putin has warned the U.S. and other nations against trying to coerce Iran into reining in its nuclear program and insists peaceful dialogue is the only way to deal with Tehran's defiance of a U.N. Security Council demand that it suspend uranium enrichment.

"Threatening someone, in this case the Iranian leadership and Iranian people, will lead nowhere," Putin said Monday during his trip to Germany. "They are not afraid, believe me."

Iran's rejection of the council's demand and its previous clandestine atomic work has fed suspicions in the U.S. and other countries that Tehran is working to enrich uranium to a purity usable in nuclear weapons. Iran insists it is only wants lesser-enriched uranium to fuel nuclear reactors that would generate electricity.

Putin's visit to Tehran is being closely watched for any possible shifts in Russia's carefully hedged stance in the nuclear standoff.

The Russian president underlined his disagreements with Washington last week, saying he saw no "objective data" to prove Western claims that Iran is trying to construct nuclear weapons.

Putin emphasized Monday that he would negotiate in Tehran on behalf of the five permanent U.N. Security Council members — United States, Russia, China, Britain and France — and Germany, a group that has led efforts to resolve the stalemate with Tehran.

get proof in your hand on the corruption done by Gen.
Moeen. He is not a corrupt person rather saved our
country from the corrupt politicians about say top 200
corrupt people. Out of 200 or 100 or 2000 does not
count any percentage of 150 m people of our country.
It is Gen Moeen who must be remembered for his very
sincere work to save our country. Please be positive
and contribute positively to help irridicate
corruption as much as possible by the present honest
and neutral government. I personally do not believe
the corrupted people of the past who will again try to
do what they did for the past 36 years.

Constructive suggestions will help the present
government to do better job which is desiarable by
most of us ( but not by Mr. Mohatir of bd.) whom I
found to be biased and politically motivated or
negatively charged man or related to a party or does
not like present government. But most of us (majority)
would like to see better works done by the present
government which nobody could do ( I understand ).

Thank you very much (Shamim Hasnain) for your valuable
comments.
