General Moyeen U's Indian Potatoe Connection
Abid Bahar

The name potatoe made couple of people famous, one was the former US Vice-President Dan Quelle for spelling it wrong, the other one is the Bangladeshi patit General Moyeen U for suggesting Bangladeshis to eat potatoes. Our politicians like Bangabandu never wanted to deprive anybody of rice. He warned to kill Pakistanis by depriving them of rice ( Bhatee Marboo). He never said he will do it to Bengladeshis. Here is this Moyeen U who  had suggested Bangladeshis to eat potatoes. It seems as a General he was shooting in the wrong direction. Eversince he said it he he took the name,Moyeen the "potato head."

 

People don't learn from history. Here was another ignorant government Minister in Pakistan who suggested Bengalis to eat small amount of Birani, and that will solve the food problem. There was another one, Zakir Hossain, who even suggested to Bengalis to eat banana. They all were considered as insults to the nation(Mache Bhatee Banglaee). So we have one more person, Moyeen U to suggest something people wouldn't like.

 The reason for Moyeen U's suggestion seems to be politically motivated. He has been venturing the civilian domain to see how people react to his ideas. This first prescription by seen as a petit General who is not even a neutritionist, to solve a grand food problem just foiled. The motive behind his daring venture suggested by some known quarter, came from his former position as a Mujibadi, and an India-lover. While Indian BSF kills Bangladeshis, while in India, he instead of raising these grave problems, he met people who helped in the liberation war of Bangladesh. In the RAW's book him as a former Mujibbadi, he was received with red carpet and was given 7 horses, the highest Indian honor given to a foreign guest.

 

That was not the end of the story, it is now clear that on his way back to Bangladesh someone in the dada circle had suggested to him that Bangladesh can import cheap Indian potatoes. Moyeen believed his Indian friends to solve Bangladesh's problems. But the story behind the story that INDIA wants to export POTATOES to BANGLADESH.

 

Subir Bhaumik reports: 

 

"They (farmers) say a bumper potato crop has led to a huge surplus of more than 15,000 metric tonnes and there's not enough cold storage facilities in the state to preserve it for off-season sale when prices are better."

 

It's ok Mr. Moyeen U, you atleast didn't spell the word wrong but as a General this was not your jurisdiction (business) to suggest Bangladeshis to eat potatoes. Your area is to built dams and dikes in the beaches and cut the jungles in Bandarban and Khagrachari (Indian army does it in India, you should have learnet while in India), not to teach people what to eat or teach the leaders to be honest, because you are not being honest to do the jobs that you are paid for.  Your responsibility is to check on the foreign enemy not to find potato excuses for entering politics; Indian interest is to enter Bangladesh market to export Potatoes to Bangladesh.
