Student politics
Everybody knows that student organisations affiliated with the two political parties are the breeding grounds of extortionists and hooligans directly nurtured by the two parties to meet their political
 
US morality
I have been quite impressed with the daily pronouncements from the USA as to how Bangladesh should be run. This is very generous of them.

Mudslide victims
I would request the government to declare immediately a "national mourning day" for the victims of Chittagong tragedy.
 
Manmade disaster
It is quite usual in the Bangladeshi context to experience such weather at this time of the year. But what happened in Chittagong is not usual. The whole country is shocked to learn about the death toll.
 
TSC cyber centre
Bangladesh has joined the information super highway through the submarine cable. This is good news for the people who depend on the internet or enjoy net facilities.
 
Good supplements, but...
For the past 11years we have been a loyal subscriber of "The Daily Star". It became an integral part of our morning, ever since my dad introduced it in our house more than a decade ago.
