Nation at fault
What it takes a man to buy something? Money, financial potentiality. I wonder with amazement how a person affords to buy a car for Tk.30,00,000 in a country where the per capita income is less than US$1000, whereas the same car in a much better condition sells for less than Tk.3,00,000 where the per capita income is more than US$ 40,000.
The other day, I found a person offered to sell a Honda CRV 2000-01 model on the craigslist for 3300 US$ X75=2,47,500 taka. Can anyone really explain this phenomenon? Perhaps not, because there is no logical explanation. I am sure even if the infamous George Bush Junior, ex President of the United States, is made the prime minister of Bangladesh, he will abandon the position and flee the scene to hide his face in shame as soon as he comes to know about the affairs of the country and how it is run. On the other hand, our national leaders are fighting unto death in a bid to stay in power forever. May the Almighty bless this nation!
