Bring in honest people


Thanks to the Internet, we can closely follow the ongoing activities in Bangladesh. We, Bangladeshis living abroad, greatly appreciate the present government's steps to curb corruption and punish those responsible for disgracing the country year after year, with the TI rating. We believe that the present govt. will continue their work to set up a permanent standard, where anyone other than honest, hardworking and able politicians will have to stay out of politics. Many were scared to find the immediate past PM's clear insensitivity to corruption! Her absolute lack of responsibility to the nation and her blindness to corruption is revealed through the massive corruption, abuse of power and misuse of relief goods by her own people: sons, brothers, nephews, political advisers, friends of the sons etc.

Well, I am equally confused to find that even the highly educated, able and experienced politicians, like the former finance minister, failed to control their sons.
