Should Dr. Yunus come to the National Politics..??

[BBa_dEAN]

Today we came to know a breaking news at around 4 p.m. that our national pride, Nobel laureate Dr. Md. Yunus has declared to come to the nation politics if the people of the country wants him to do so..

He is a Internationally renowned personality for his contribution towards the upliftment of the poor & the down-troddent.. He thinks he can help to get rid of the correpted political system of our country..

What do you think..? Let us make a clear statement about it.. Cause your comment matters.. !!

[sword^fish]

If politicians involved in bangladeshi politics were gentle enough I would like to welcome Dr. Md. Younus; but I have doubt if he can contribute much involving directly into it.

therefore, I would go for the options:
No, he should not.. He should rather help the politicans by guiding them

It amazing to see how the notion of polictics has changed in bangladesh over the span of only 30 years. My dad sometimes tells me that only the best students and students with great calibre used to come to politics during his youth....politics was looked upon as a matter of great pride and dignity but today i find it amazing that people are suggesting Dr. Yunus not to go into politics because itz not his place. Very ironic.. and sad indeed. As a matter of fact, i believe the more Dr. Yunuses of our country join politics the better it will be and itz infact their DUTY, NOT an option, to salvage our country from this aftermath of extreme looting and devouring this lil country like hungry dogs by our so called "politicians." Let God burn each and every one of them in HELL. Let them rot like dead pieces of meat in drains.

Dr. Yunus, Dr. Fakruddin
Sir, take more Dr. Yunuses and Dr. Fakruddins with u and please SAVE this country. The general public wants a revolution, let us all bring those so called politicians down and trash them in buriganga, right beside the rotten taneries.

Z.

[sword^fish]

hahah.. i can't stop laughing man!
yes, all of you are right who are welcoming Dr. Yunus in bangladeshi politics. but let me remind you few things:

1. politics of bangladesh is not for educated people. it's sick, it furious and it's not fully controlled by bangladeshi leading parties.

2. you are not playing PC game; u've no chance to restart game from your saved stage and continue hunting your opposition. it requires only one headshot to shut your mouth, even before you say anything right.

3. after an incident we, all, seek for justice. is justice really blind in our country?

how does it sound now? for God's sake please stop Dr. Yunus from joining political nasty environment. let him do for what he was awared Noble prize! peace it is. and our politics never suit with peace.. from 1952 to 1971, from 1971-2007.... never! never!

i'm not saying he does not understand what politics is and how to handle situation.. it's just we will lose one more honest and valuable asset of our country. it'll bring greater output if he sticks to what he has been doing in his field for last few years for our countryman.

"My personal letter to you" by Dr. Muhammad Yunus

Dear citizen,
I am writing this letter to you with the hope of receiving a personal reply from you. You might have noticed in what situation many people requested me to join politics and why I had to consider it with utmost importance. I, like you, witnessed where our political culture has brought the country and how it attempted to destroy the country's future possibilities. The way the present caretaker government is trying to create an acceptable atmosphere by carrying out necessary reforms has made me optimistic along with all citizens of the country. In this situation, I feel it with my heart that I should, showing due respect to the people's expectation of me, participate in the mission of taking the nation to the height it deserves. It is now clear to all that it is not possible to reach the goal maintaining the existing political culture; it is only possible by bringing a comprehensive change to the culture. Through my work and experience, I feel with all my heart that the people with their innate sense of endeavour and creativity can achieve the impossible if political goodwill, competent leadership and good governance can be established. If I have to form a political party in response to the people's desire, it will be dedicated to this very objective.

I have received pure love and respect from people of all ages ranging from the poorest to the most powerful, I do not know when again a Bangladeshi individual will have this good fortune. By the grace of Allah, I am a very fortunate man. There is nothing left for me to desire. I know that joining politics is to become controversial. I am ready to take the risk if you think me joining politics will help in ushering of a new political climate.

It is high time to form the proper political structure conducive to the huge task of building a Bangladesh we all dream of, by freeing ourselves from all past frustrations. I need the active participation and assistance of you and all others like you if I have to go forward with this mission. I need your advice on how I should go forward. I also want to know how you want to participate and assist in this task. The efforts of you and me to realise everybody's desire for a new politics in order to build a new Bangladesh will get strength if these can be learnt from you in the form of a letter.

You can give your advice in your own style on any topic regarding the formation of a new political party. I can point out some topics as examples: a) how the party can stay involved with the people of all villages and neighbourhoods and work to realise their expectations; b) how the party can be helpful to the common people in their daily struggle and in solving their problems; c) how the organisations of the party can be built on the basis of spontaneous devotion of men and women of all ages and professions; d) what can be done to encourage the eager, enthusiastic, honest and competent people of all levels to align with the party and to become active in it; e) how the honest and competent among them, having public support, can be nominated for different local and national elections; f) how can we ensure transparency and honesty of all the people involved with the party, and of the party itself; g) how democracy can be established within the party; h) how can the flow of opinions directly from the grassroots level be ensured; and i) how the officials and employees serving in state institutions can be prevented from turning into activists of political parties -- your thoughts and advice on many such questions are vital.

At the same time, it is important to know what role you (and your friends) can play in the party, how you can actively contribute or support, is also very important to know. For example, you can play the role: a) of a member of a village or neighbourhood-level organisation; b) of a pioneer of the party's welfare initiatives; c) of a local organiser; d) of an organiser of a community organisation; e) of an activist taking party calls widely among the people; f) of an adviserresearchertheoretician for the party; g) you can contribute to the party by using your special skills or expert knowledge in its service; h) by taking a leadership role in popularising the party as an enthusiastic supporter; i) by demonstrating your organising power; and so on.

I want to know your opinion and get your advice whether you are a political leader, activist, leader or worker of an association or organisation, industrialist, businessman, professor, teacher, shopkeeper, farmer, labourer, artist-writer-thinker, professional, journalist, service holder, housewife, teenager, youth or an expatriate Bangladeshi.

Please write a short or detail personal reply to my letter. Your friends, all members of your family, neighbours, classmates and colleagues can also put in their thoughts in the same letter. You can reply through email and distribute copies of it among all your acquaintances. You can also send a short reply through SMS and encourage all your acquaintances to do the same. You can send copies of my letter to your relatives and friends abroad and encourage them to reply. It will not be possible to come out clean from old politics if a strong momentum for a new politics is not created. We will not be able to reach our goal with feeble support.

I hope my letter and your reply to it will only be the beginning of our sincere communication. The communication established will be able to go forward actively towards a common goal from now on.

You can use my following address to send your reply or may arrange to send it to me in any other way.

Subject : DrYunus: ACCEPT MY SINCERE THANKS AND GRATITUDE


Yunus' second letter
Dear Citizen,
I am writing to you again. First, let me express my salam to you. I could never
imagine that I would get such massive response from the letter I wrote to you on
February 11, 2007.

ACCEPT MY SINCERE THANKS AND GRATITUDE
You have encouraged my entry into politics with such logic and emotions that I
could not help being astonished. I again felt the infinite blessings of Allah on
me. From your replies, I have come to realize that how deep into your hearts you
have let me in and you have put me in a position of great trust.

You have come forward and advised me with the desire to create a new politics
for a new Bangladesh. A handful of young volunteers have been struggling to keep
up with the incessant flow of mails, emails, fax and sms that you have sent to
me after reading my letter in the newspapers. Your letters are continuing to
flood in. The replies ranged from the people in remote villages of Bangladesh to
the enthusiastic expatriates. I have received many valuable advices through your
letters. I thank you from the depth of my heart. I express my gratitude to you.
I also thank those who have asked me not to join politics out of their love for
me. To them, I only have to say that only Allah can give us respect. If one
wants respect, that person should earn it himself or herself. I want to go ahead
with what I think is my duty. Overall, the message that you have clearly
articulated to me, is that people from all walks of life want to go forward with
me with a wish to bring widespread changes. I have no way to disappoint them.

I AM JOINING POLITICS WITH YOUR ADVICE
In light of your enthusiasm, I have decided to take part in your efforts for
creating a new politics. I will join politics and establish a new party. Please
pray, so that I can fulfill your wishes and so that Allah's blessings are with
me, as always. The foundation of my new party will gradually build up through
the same consultative process I have used to come to this decision.

I have received many proposals regarding the name of the party and have decided
on proposing the name 'Nagorik Shakti' (Citizens' Power) to constantly remind
the people of the creation of a new politics through unleashing the hidden power
among all citizens. In short, we can use "Shakti" for promoting the party. We
want to establish our beloved country among the frontline countries with the
slogan "March ahead, Bangladesh." We want the central motto to be the pledge
being echoed inside each proud citizen today: "We Can."

I have expressed on several occasions my ideas and opinions on the objectives
and programs the party requires to build a new Bangladesh. In this regard, I am
enthusiastically trying to discern the hopes and desires of the nation. The
messages that I have received from you recently, contained some questions, some
opinions and some preferences on this matter. You wanted to know what would be
my party's goal and purpose? I will outline the goals and purpose of the party
later. The party itself will decide on it once it is formed.

Let me say which aspects would characterise 'Nagorik Shakti' as a political
party. I have been saying these for years. The politics of this party would be
to move towards the future by coalescing the people under a unified goal; not to
go around in the circles of the past by creating divisions. The activists in the
towns and villages would be in charge of the party's policy making. Those who
break the law will not be allowed to become its leaders. All the nominations
from the party for all elections, including national parliamentary elections,
would be given by the local committee; and they will decide on the candidate by
comprehensively considering their honestly and competency. To maintain public
relations, it will follow alternatives to grand rallies. Women and the youth
would be the lifeblood of this party, they would come to the leadership in huge
numbers. This party will not judge everything from the party perspective; rather
it will consult all other parties, non-political citizens, experts, expatriates
and others. They will move forward together. Overall, this party would be the
beacon of national unity and implementation of the nation's dreams.
