Hartals harming economy

It's been four months into the year 2013. The world at large has put all these months to good use. But in Bangladesh, half of every month is being wasted because of hartals. As a least developed country, we are already in a disadvantageous position among the nations of the world. And the internal political instabilities are making things worse. Some sectors have just shown a beacon of hope for the economy. But all the political parties are for their political gains only and not thinking for the common people. But, we, the common people, on the bother hand, are also responsible for not raising a strong voice against these suicidal political programmes.
Today there are dozens of political parties in Bangladesh. Even some unfamiliar parties are also calling hartals. Seems like all the political parties are in a mood of showing off how many hartals they each can call. Evil forces paralysed Bangladesh once in 1971. It can't happen again. Bangladeshi people want to work. Those who are calling hartals should be considerate about their country.
