Showcasing our culture
Bangladesh is a country of rich cultural heritage. Art and music are an integral part of our life. But the other day I felt quite embarrassed as I could not find any place where traditional Bangla songs and dances are performed regularly. I had some foreign guests with me who were keen to see our cultural programmes.
It may be mentioned that all the big cities of the world arrange regular cultural nights depicting their culture and tradition. Tourists travelling through those cities even for a few hours can see their culture. May I request the ministry of cultural affairs as well as private socio-cultural bodies to arrange cultural nights on a regular basis at least in Dhaka? Similar shows may be arranged at the tourist spots such as Chittagong, Rangamati and Cox's Bazar.
