06-12 July: week in review

O7 July
Former finance minister M Saifur Rahman's younger son Shafiur Rahman Babu took lease of 100 acres of government land worth Tk 95 lakh in Srimangal upazila for only Tk 500 to establish a tea estate.
It is so surprising to know that son of the than running finance minister had to spend as much as 500 Taka ($7.2 U.S.). The authorities should have shown some respect to the dude. Anything more than 68.70 taka is over the edge for the son of the man who has no idea about Monga.

Some 200 Biman passengers faced untold sufferings stranded at the Zia International Airport as the flight scheduled to carry them was delayed for 39 hours due to technical glitches.
How immature the passengers are! When will they learn? When? Okay – things might change in a short while when the name of Biman will be transformed to BAL (Bangladesh Airlines Ltd).  BAL will uphold a positive image of the country.

O8 July
Former prime minister and BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia yesterday said those who are 'hatching' the 'minus two' theory are the enemies of democracy.
Dear madam, YOU are the number one enemy of democracy; despite the fact, that you were quite democratic in having extra marital-relationships.

09 July
Eighty-five year old Manoranjan Roy, who had been sent to jail as he failed to repay a loan taken from the Krishi Unnayan Bank, was released yesterday as Chief of Army Staff General Moeen U Ahmed cleared the poor man's debt.
Thank you Sir for your kindness. I only hope, the money did not come from the state funds.

Denmark thanked Bangladesh government for an ‘excellent cooperation’ for rescuing the kidnapped DANIDA official in Chittagong Hill Tracts.
Tell your stupid employees not to enter the risky regions without protections.

10 July
Former foreign minister Morshed Khan and his family submitted their wealth statements to the Anti-Corruption Commission. Morshed Khan owns immoveable property of Tk 1.42 crore and moveable property of Tk 26.58 lakh while his wife Nasreen Khan has immovable property of Tk 6.4 crore and Tk 86.82 lakh in the form of moveable assets.
Dump me! I thought this guy is rich. He only has 1.42 crore! He is living in Singapore for last three months. R  kichu din thakle to shob taka shesh hoye jabe. Bechara! Onnodike, Citycell r Pacific motor’s er malik hoye o matro 1.42 crore! Rasta ghate to police, Rab, Army, secretariat – shobar vehicle dekhi Nissan.

11 July
Bangladesh's military-backed emergency government has arrested 17,000 people as part of its corruption crackdown. Those detained include at least 150 leading politicians, businessmen and bureaucrats.
Amar desher shonar chele ra ache na!

12 July
Sri Lanka skittled Bangladesh for a meager 131 runs in the first innings of the third cricket test.
Yeaa…………… Bangladesh improves. In the second test, they were all-out for 62 runs in the first innings. Big improvements. Double.
