World Bank and post office

Ruhul A Chowdhury, Dhanmondi, Dhaka
I appreciate Mr. SA Mansoor's views regarding Prof Yunus. Prof Yunus has recently criticised the World Bank and has compared it with the Post Office. But, indeed, the post offices can help in reducing poverty in the poor countries and at the same time can become financially viable if the government takes adequate business development strategies for them. The post offices can be turned into creative business centres like the Barclays' business centres in the UK with little changes. May I therefore, request the authorities concerned to think about our post offices to attack poverty, a word used by a former World Bank president.
