Changing realtors' mindset
Bayazid Akter / Driknews
I think the reason developers flout building construction codes is that they do not know why should they obey the rules. Maybe they don't know why filling up of water bodies should harm the environment, for will they not, 9n the short term, earn millions of taka from those works? Who cares, what those will cost the nation in the longer term? Maybe they don't know why they should make adequate parking facilities so that traffic congestion might ease for the convenience of many. Maybe they don't know why they should stop building so many buildings at the same time? The infrastructure of Dhaka city? But then why is the is the government so fussy about such minor problems? I think newspapers, especially a well informed newspaper like The Daily Star, should clearly mention in bullet points why we should follow the rules. It will help those running only after money to have a grasp of the larger picture.
