[chottala.com] Re: [notun_bangladesh] Climate Change and the Issue of Settling the Bangladeshis: They could be Settled in South American Countries

Dear Ayubi bhai,

 

 

Yes, we need to keep our chins up but with the country so divided along political lines can we really think objectively? It is a painful reality but politics has to change or this culture of politics will eventually destabilize Bangladesh in the next 10 to 15 years. Our sovereignty will be threatened and we will approach quick disintegration. We need to arrest these changes by understanding the value at risk and the stakes are high so there are no room for eccentricity, stupidity, people pleasing schemes, etc. We need to build a future state based on pragmatic visions and global market understandings. While we have qualified human resource in Bangladesh, but do they have the responsibility and authority to effect certain changes within the country? I beg to differ. Then comes issues of nepotism and that is a disease we have not been able to handle well.

 

Anyway, dreams are nothing but dreams unless we resolutely work for bettering bangladesh.

 

 

Take care

Mr. Rahman,                We must avoid excapist attitue. We must live in our country and adapt to the technology of keeping our country safe from the rising water just like the dutch have done.

The climate change is a global issue and the West is to be blamed most heavily for it and countries like bangladesh is getting all the negative impacts for it. I believe a global fund for climate change be quickly set up (no more false hopes) and allow Bangladesh and some of the deeply affected countries to be the major stakeholders of this fund. This fund need to be utilized in developing adaptive technology, exploration of alternative energy and improved technology and crop management for future sustainability. Some of the fund has to be given for global awareness campaigns so as to reduce waste and recycle and re-use waste. We also need to work on restraining our appetite for run away consumerism.   Take care.   Ziaur Rahman IITM Dhaka   On 7/6/08, Salahuddin Ayubi <s_ayubi786@yahoo. com> wrote: Mr. Bahar,              We may not have to be climate change refugees after all , only if we learn the tachnology of reclaiming land from the sea and train our rivers then we would not have to worry about it.             If our government was indeed smart then it could make some fortune out of the global food cricis . Our farmers are one of th best in the world. It is no joke to feed 150 million  people in  acountry having sa land mass of 147,000 Sq Km. In otherword the small state o Wisconsin feeding half of USA.        Our Peace keepers working in Africn countries have prepared good grounds for bangladesh. . We can now enter into agreement with those countries on share cropping on mutually bengicial terms. We could also train their agricutural scientist here in bangladesh and engage our farmers in African countries to grow more food which could be beneficial for both .                          Salahuddin Ayubi --- On Sun, 7/6/08, abid bahar <abidbahar@Yahoo. com> wrote: From: abid bahar <abidbahar@Yahoo. com> Subject: [notun_bangladesh] Climate Change and the Issue of Settling the Bangladeshis: They could be Settled in South American Countries To: "ban yah" <banglarnari@ yahoogroups. com>, "a bahar" <abidbahar@yahoo. com> Cc: chottala@yahoogroup s.com, notun_bangladesh@ yahoogroups. com Date: Sunday, July 6, 2008, 7:17 AM Climate Change and the Issue of Settling Bangladeshis Abid Bahar Climate Change and the Issue of settling Bangladeshi climate refugees is becoming the talk of the small towns in the Global village. Questions asked, where to settle the 20.5 million Bangladeshis? The unfriendly India has been killing Bangladeshis in border areas through target practice even before the latter become refugees due to climate change and forced to take shelter in the north West Indian mountains. Last years death from the the unfriendly India's target shooting was 700. South American countries like Argentina, Venezualia and Brazil could be approached by Bangladesh embassy/ Western governments to accept the proverbial hard working, friendly and moderate Bangladeshis. These countries are sparsely populated. After all during the World Cup, Bangladeshis almost always support Argentina and Brazil. Also, two years ago, at the news of Argentina's defeat,a Bangladeshi from Barisal even committed suicide. I don't know the details, but I think there is a love connection and it is a love that should be respected. -- Ziaur Rahman CEO International Institute of Technology & Management 56/2 Lake Circus, West Panthopoth Dhaka 1205 Tel: 8112916, 01726153318, 01711-543431 www.iitmbd.org & Chief Executive Officer IITM Software www.iitmsoftware. com info@iitmsoftware. com
