We also had long streaks of martial law. No matter whichever ideology is being pursued by the elected representative government or a martial law government, it has to be seen that neither the resident director of the World Bank (WB) nor the resident representative of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) are in a position to 'guide' us to attain our cherished goals as an independent nation.

Moreover, the prime ministers of Singapore or Malaysia would never come to our country and lead us for our overall development. I am sorry to say that although we have crossed 33 years of our independence, the prime duty and responsibility of ensuring 'distribution of wealth' among all the 'adult citizens' of our beloved country still remains unresolved. Unfortunately, a large segment of the population is still very poor with no or little buying capacity.
