People and education
While strolling at Kurfürstendamm in Berlin where Syed Mujtaba Ali (Deshe Bideshe) walked many years ago, these thoughts again came to my mind:
- It is the quality of people which builds a country up. German people rebuilt their country ( with a visibly ruined Berlin) after the Second World War. They were supported by Marshal Plan to develop their country into a model nation.
- Bangladeshis could not develop themselves after so many years, even though it received massive support from World Bank and other organisations.
- Isn't there some truth in the remark of Henry Kissinger calling Bangladesh a "bottomless basket" after seeing the misuse of all the money?
This means that to build a country we need the "right people" and to build right people we need "right education" from very childhood-- education from family and school together.
