More power stations needed
If this is just early summer and we are having power cuts every half an hour, I'm dreading what will happen later this summer when it gets unbearably hot. I also want to know why not even a single power station is being built during the tenure of the CTG when it is needed on an emergency basis. We cannot stand still until election time, we still have to work and live. I am sick of hearing generators going off and on all day, this is not a civilised way to live in a capital city. If they had started last January, a power station would be finished in another year or so and would make some difference in 2010. If the current administration wants to prove their worth and gain the support of the people, they have to do more than putting the corrupt in prison. The masses don't care about that, they care about day to day life - food, shelter, power. They need to invest in a decent transport system, invest in the roads and highways, give us electricity to work and live in a decent way. In short, they need to improve the quality of our lives. I also fail to see why Bangladesh is so completely dependent on India for food supplies. There are other surrounding countries that can also supply rice and other essentials.
