Dr. Yunus - our pride
What is going on in our country? We are criticising Dr. Yunus in a way which is so shameful for the nation. Dr. Yunus achieved the Nobel Prize for his role in eradicating poverty. He introduced microcredit to the world. It is a widely accepted theory and acknowledged by the world famous economists. He established his theory through his works. But we did not stand behind him, rather we criticised his getting the Nobel Prize. I felt so bad when I saw a procession coming out of Dhaka University shouting slogans against Dr. Yunus. Our PM also commented on the incident and demanded proper investigation into the matter which was unfortunate.
I urge the PM and the people of our country to stop criticising him and think about the positive aspects of his theory and work.
