Tk100 Students

This time another story from Dhaka University DU. Apparently one of the countries premier university. All this over Tk100. Is it me or is it that university's in BD only admit animals? They are certainly uneducated and uncivilized. I wonder if after graduation they will be civilized... Actually I know the answer to that question. Not the answer I would like tho. Looks the the army have all but retreated. This scene would have been dealt with a heavy hand about 6 months ago. Rightly so. Would be good to see the marks of an army boot on the dirty students faces.

Road Traffic Accidents & Students

The roads in Bangladesh are devoid of any laws that are obeyed or enforced. I doubt the government agencies keep any statistics on the number of deaths from road accidents.

Then again is it the governments fault? We seem to blame everything on the government. In the west if the government didn't do it then an NGO would do it. Yes, this wouldn't work in BD because an NGO would only function if it could siphon off money from a foreign country in the name of helping locals.

I read today this article about Students vandalizing private vehicles because of an accident that killed a fellow student. Read the article. It's quite sad that these so-called students study at a university. I mean they are supposed to be the cream of educated - people fit for running the country. How fit can this lot be when they behave in such Neanderthal manner??!

You want to protest?? Fair enough. Come up with some constructive criticism. How can it be fixed? Well unlike the students of Dania University College in Jatrabari demands I do not think that introducing a zebra crossing will improve the situation. It will only work if it is enforced. Obviously these moronic (un)-educated scum have probably read that in the west there are such things. Well they didn't research the bit that in the west they don't have a intercity highway running through the middle of a city!!

Now to the other point - loss to the country. All the vehicles sold in the country are of foreign origin including the parts. The amount of damage such thugs cause is untold to the particular persons vehicle. Ever thought of the effects on the country's finance with regards to adding even more pressure on buying foreign goods with the little foreign reserves the country holds? I guess it's above the intelligence of the people who commit such acts....
