Fight for what's right

Asifur Rahman Khan, Sr. Creative Supervisor, Asiatic MLC
For only one person's fault, nearly 1,200 people died at Savar. The owner is a killer. We said “Punish him and punish everyone involved.” If that is our stance, why aren't we demanding punishment of those people for whom the economy is collapsing? So we punish the owner of the building, then what? What about all the buildings built without any consideration for safety? What about the corruption infested government departments, whose policies are relaxed in the face of money and power? The truth is, as a nation, we lack the courage to fight for what is right. And when Savar will be forgotten, we will go back to our ordinary lives, and will not even think about the persisting problems in our country.
