Move while the green light's on
Cricket teams, media personalities, international guests are in Dhaka. I am concerned about our traffic problems. Some vehicle owners, their drivers, passers-by and above all traffic police and sergeants are responsible for traffic congestion in Dhaka city. I think only in Bangladesh, vehicular traffic moves when the red light is on glows and stops with the green light, opposite to the system followed internationally. The main actor behind this is the traffic police who never keep the left track clear under their nose.
I would like to request the traffic authorities to look in to the matter as long as the foreign dignitaries are here. Otherwise they will assess Bangladesh wrongly.
