Our response to the cyclone

Minhaj Ahmed, Uttara, Dhaka

Tropical cyclone SIDR, the deadliest storm to hit the country in a decade, has caused massive devastation in the southwest region of our country and ruined much-needed crops just before the harvest season. The country was just recovering from the impact of floods when it was hit by another major calamity. This is the ideal time for the people of Bangladesh to unite and work together to help those people who lost their belongings completely. We feel sorry for those who lost their dear ones. Our country has faced a lot of troubles before and we are a nation accustomed to coping with natural disasters. We shall overcome this time as well and move forward for building a stronger nation. Let us all come forward and work side by side to help these poor people to rebuild their lives again.
