Awami/Baksali Manik,
Why bringing a dead persons comment to face the criticism of Yunus dealing by your beloved Netri ?
Your 'Jononetri' definitely mishandled the Yunus issue out of her zealosy. Your Netri has no quality
to compare herself with the only Bangladeshi Noble winner Dr. Mohammade Yunus. Dr. Yunus is respectable in western/civilized World and only hated by your Netri and some of her diehard Chamchas. Instead of circulating propaganda
against Dr. Yunus you people should pray for your party leader Late Sheikh Mujibor Rahman who left this World in this month.

Saifur doubts contributions of Prof Yunus
Emphasising the BNP-led government's achievements, Finance Minister Saifur Rahman yesterday cast doubt on contributions by Nobel laureate Prof Muhammad Yunus and microcredit to the country's development.
Emphasising the BNP-led government's achievements, Finance Minister Saifur Rahman yesterday cast doubt on contributions by Nobel laureate Prof Muhammad Yunus and microcredit to the country's development.
"What did microcredit do regarding life expectancy, women literacy and reserve of foreign exchange?" Saifur asked while addressing a farewell programme at the finance and planning ministry. Officials of his ministry organised the programme at the ministry auditorium as the government's tenure expires on October 27.
The minister sarcastically remarked that the government has established thousands of schools across the country. He posed a question whether a handful of those institutions was established by Prof Yunus or the BRAC.
Citing examples of the country's development during the BNP government's rule, he asked how much of it was the result of microcredit system.
Though Prof Yunus won Nobel Peace Prize for microcredit Saifur claimed the then government of 1979-80 actually initiated the system.
Meanwhile, in his last speech as a minister of the outgoing government, Saifur yesterday discussed a number of other issues.
Regretting the current political trend, the minister said he would not involve in politics any further, as unethical "things" have to be done in this arena.
He stressed that these unethical "things" are the reasons behind corruption.
He mentioned an incident when a World Bank official informed him of a serious corruption attempt in a project.
Saifur however ruled out one-sided criticism of Bangladesh in connection with corruption, saying officials from international organisations are equally involved in irregularities.

Concern About Grameen Bank- U.S. Department of State Press Statement
We call on the Government of Bangladesh to respect the integrity, effectiveness, and independence of Grameen Bank.

Acting Deputy Spokesperson, Office of Press Relations-US Dept Of State
The United States is deeply concerned about recent actions the Government of Bangladesh has taken to give the government-appointed chairman of the Grameen Bank Board control over the selection of the bank’s new managing director. This move would diminish the role the largely female borrower-shareholders play in shaping the direction of an institution that has made a difference to millions of impoverished women in Bangladesh, and indeed around the world.
During her May visit to Dhaka, Secretary Clinton urged Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Foreign Minister Dipu Moni to take no actions that would undermine Grameen Bank. We are concerned that the latest actions by the government could threaten the future of the bank, which was founded by Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus.
We call on the Government of Bangladesh to respect the integrity, effectiveness, and independence of Grameen Bank. We urge the Bangladeshi Government to ensure transparency in the selection of a new managing director who has unquestioned integrity, competence, and dedication to preserving Grameen Bank, its unique governance structure, and its effectiveness in bringing development and hope to 8.3 million of Bangladesh’s most vulnerable citizens, mostly women.
