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. We should in fact try and reclaim land from the sea.

Dear All,The climate change issues are perhaps becoming grave each day and, as a nation, we need to do something. 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 RahmanIITMDhaka

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 .

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.

RE: [chottala.com] Re: engineer asadul hoque dies
I have no language to express my grieves in response to hearing the sad demise of Asadul Haque. We had long relations with him regarding one common goal to bring back Bangabandhu's dream to build
We will not forget you,Asad. This is my request to Anu and Akhter to convey my heart felt condolences to Asad's family.

Subject: [chottala.com] Re: engineer asadul hoque dies
At this time let we all pray & make DOA to Almighty Allah for Asad's departed soul - so that Almighty Allah give peace in his grave and provide a place to him in jannat ul Ferdous
We all hope & expect that InsaAllah Allah will to that and Asad will get those!
Engineer Asad was a very nice, polite, sincere, honest man.
Today morning there were two JANAZA for him in Dhaka - one at Railway compound & another at Baitul Mokarram mosque compound (He was also Project Director (PD) of the Islamic Foundation, Baitul Mokarram, Dhaka) and he will be buried at his home place Faridpur after Asar prayer.
We all convey our deep condolences to his father (still alive), wife (Mrs. Rozina Parveen vabee, DGM in a public Bank) & children (elder girl Ms. Aboni, 2nd year student of BUET in Mech Engg & son, Mr. Ashik, recently got golden GPA 5 in his SSC exam), his brothers & sisters and his full family.
His Dhaka residence phone numbers are 935 4043 & 933 9000
May Almighty Allah give his wife, father, children, all family members, friends – to have SABUR, strength and peace of mind to bear this huge loss. It is the decision of Allah, we have to accept it!
He was a very good 'friend' of mine as well as my 'younger brother'. He used to like & respect me like as a friend & elder brother too.
Except last year (March 2007, when he was very sick), he used to receive or see off me at the Dhaka airport along with his close friends Engr. Razzak (Sup Engg), Engr Anwar (Deputy Secretary) & others. And we have spent many days-times together.
After coming to New Zealand in 1998 also we had regular contact. I have talked with him & his wife week before and she informed me that his condition was deteriorating rapidly, though he moral was high and requested to make DOA for him.
Couple of week ago Engr. Dr. Gholam Mostafa Vai also phoned me to inform about his poor condition of health and to make DOA. I talked to his wife too (at that time he was in Square hospital). I used to get his update news from my youngest brother (He also work as a Divisional Engineer in Bangladesh Railway at Rail Vaban, Dhaka)
I can clearly recall all good & modest behaviour, attitude of Engineer Asad during my student life in BUET with him (1979 to 1980). I can also distinctly remember his precious time, unrestrained efforts & sincere service for the betterment of the engineering community of Bangladesh through Institute of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB) since 1995 until his death.
He was elected as a Local Council Member of the Institute of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB), Dhaka Centre election in 1998 – 1999 (I was also elected along with him) and he was also elected VP of Electrical Engineering Division of IEB. He used to actively participate in all social and professional activities of the Institute of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB) and always served the community with his utmost dedication as a true fellow. His senior & junior colleagues in Bangladesh Railway & later in Bangladesh Secretariat used to like and respect him respectively, which I have witnessed many time in his offices
All we have seen how he served relentlessly for the engineering community and for his family too (his father, younger sisters, recently passed MBBS, used to stay with him). His feeling, service to engineering community & to his friends (BUET – 83 club and others) & family were so great that it would make a permanent mark in the minds of many engineers, family members, friends both in Bangladesh and abroad to mourn his death .
Let we make DOA, pray again & again for his departed soul for a peaceful stay in grave and a place in Jannat. May Allah accept our DOA.
Ameen.

[chottala.com] Indra Gandhi couldn't help establish Bangladesh alone
Abid Bahar
One person can not do such a big thing. It was a result of a chain reaction of events:
Bengal began to emerge from the partition movement led by Sir Salimullh.
East Bengal later joined Pakistan. If it didn't join with Pakistan it wouldn't have become Bangladesh.
The premir of Assam once said that one Bhasani was enough to destroy two Pakistan. Bhasani's autonomy demand, breaking the 144 that led to the 21st Feb event (Mujib was in jail during this time), Bhasani founding Ittifaq, Awami League, two strong institutions that allowed Mujib to come up Bhasani's autonomy demand in the 6 point and work on it, Bhasani's movement to release Mujib from Agartala conspiracy case, Bhutto's denial to transfer power, Mujib's 7th March speech and what was left was for Indra to cut a thin skin connecting the body of part Pakistan which was cut and seperated by Indra. Well, yes and no, I would say she helped in the process.
During the liberation war I was in Mizooram, I saw half burned big trees by the roadside. We had to have pass to go from the tent to the bazar. Mizoos are required to carry pass for travelling as well. I asked local people what happened here? They said, when Mizoos rebelled, Indra sent Indian air force and did crpet bombing. Indra was called by Nixon a witch. I wouldn't say that.
At the camp, as Bengalis demanded ration/food and blanket, Indian army arrested them and put in the open sky bazar in rain water. If a person said a small thing against India, the next day you see the person in jail. There were spies everywhere. So you know why this Sri Moti helped. She helped herself and her country.
In 1971 we went to India for trainning but we were given trainning only how to use rifle without the use of ammunition. This is to make sure that there is no confusion of our fire with the rebel's. India's human rights violations in these occupied regions are not regularly reported to the international media.
Indra Gandhi couldn't help establish Bangladesh alone.

[chottala.com] Fwd: ARHAM needs your help
From: rabi_sankar_das@bd.nykline.com <rabi_sankar_das@bd.nykline.com>
Date: Jul 12, 2008 1:21 PM
Subject: ARHAM needs your help
Arham is the 20 month old son of my colleague. This lively little boy was diagnosed with
'Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia' (blood cancer) and subdural Hemorrhage in the brain and
is presently undergoing treatment at the National University Hospital (NUH) in
Singapore. His doctors say that he is responding well to the induction chemotherapy and
has a 70% chance of being cured by their treatment.
However, the treatment will have to continue for two years and it will cost around
US$ 100,000.00. Arham's committed parents have drawn on all their savings and their
family and friends are extending all the assistance they can to save the life of this
beautiful young boy. However, they are still far behind the required amount and are
in dire need of financial assistance to continue the treatment. It breaks my heart when
I speak to my colleague and wish there was more I could do for her beloved child. Since
there is only so much I can contribute, I am writing this mail to all my nearest and dearest
friends for any assistance you can extend.
I am attaching herewith a copy of a letter from Arham's doctor at NUH seeking assistance
from First Hand Foundation in Kansas City, USA. Here you will see that the initial treatment
is very cost intensive. Therefore, it would be greatly appreciated if you could kindly extend
your generous assistance as soon as you can.
You can send your contribution in any of the following ways:
1. Friends in Bangladesh: can contact me if they want to contribute cash, which can be sent with
the funds we have raised from our office.
2. Friends living abroad: can remit their contribution directly to Arham's parents at the following A/C:
Bank Name: DBS Bank
Address: 6 Shenton Way, DBS Building, Singapore 068809
Account Name: Md. Azim Ashraf
Account Number: 020-2-072939
Swift Code: DBSSSGSG
Chips UID Number: 034675
Telex Number: RS 24455
Please visit a website dedicated to Arham (http://arham.webnode.com) for his pictures and further details
of how you can make a contribution. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested to know more about how
you can help.
I am truly grateful for the time you have taken to read this mail. Please pray for the child and hope
that you will extend a helping hand to his loving parents.
Thanking you,
P.S. The attached picture was taken when Arham joined us on a family outing of our Company to Cox's Bazar earlier this year.
