What can we do?
What can we do when life becomes more mortifying than death? Yes, I'm referring to the tragic fire of old Dhaka. This tragedy has left 118 people dead and many more injured. Though it was fierce and ruthless, it wasn't unusual. It's an outcome of unplanned urbanization. We know Dhaka is now a risky place to live in. But people are not aware of this increasing risk. Both the government and city dwellers are responsible for the tragedy.
