Thank you Mr. Sirajul for your honest reply to those "Yunus haters". I like to ask those gentlemen what their contribution to the poor, their community and the country. Please ignore those people comments, because "empty vassal sound much".
Respectfully,

Subject: RE: [chottala.com] Proud of Dr. Yunus - can we STOP biting please?
It may not have improved the life of middle-class or high-income level people but it tremendously improved the life of the poor and poorest people of the country throughout all areas and all localities. Yes, as I always say, nothing is perfect in the world. But we have to live with the statistics and to support whatever improvements are achieved in the maximum levels, ignoring the minor drawbacks. Is there anything without any drawbacks in the world? None. Humans being so improved as a specie amongst all living beings, still carry filthy urines in their bladders and stinky droppings in their stomachs. Did that make humans so bad? Why not? Because humans have so much more good stuffs compared to having just urine and droppings. Likewise, please look at the more good stuff and not just little bad stuff of something. Many selfish rich people and a lot of selfish middle class people bitterly oppose micro-credits for one main reason, which is, the micro-credit provided the jobs of own to the poor and poorest people and created the scarcity of house-hold servants and day laborers all over Bangladesh. People have to pay more now to find the servants and the day laborers. Those rich and middle-class people consider it as going against the improvement of the society, because of the price hiking in the market of day-laborers and house-servants; and those rich and middle-class people are concerned about their losses in the absolute hoarding and profiteering in the labor market. This is the worst mentality and a lot of people are siding with them, perhaps you did too, and perhaps for that reason you only see the bad affect of the microcerdits, but not the immense improvements of the condition of lives of the poor and poorest people of the country. This must be a corrupt thought. Uplifting the conditions of the poor and poorest people should be valued as more desirable and more precious above the losses of profits of the well-to-do people's spending in the labor market.
By the away, why I have accept your ridiculous information that people of areas where there is no micro-credits are better off? Are you talking about the poorest people there or about the well-to-do peoplethere? Before and even now, no one used to land money to the poorest people, except robbing their physical labors with very little or no money. Of course, some local local business people (mohajons) or village politicians (matobbars) would lend them money with 200% to 500% interest yearly, and at the end, when the loan could not be paid-off by those poor people, the influential lenders would grab all belongings of those poorest people. Micro-lending interest is about 30% maximum yearly, which is way cheaper than the local lenders. Are you in favor of those local cheaters? I believe you are not. So far all microcrediut small loans have been found to be within the means of the poorest people of all societies throughout the country.
