- Ideas/Suggestions: About the Project: The E-Vo application is a technology-driven platform aimed at ensuring transparency, inclusivity, and efficiency in national and local elections. It is designed with a focus on data security, voter identity verification, and ease of accessibility, aligned with the Election Commission’s mandate to conduct free, fair, and credible elections. Key Features of E-Vo: 1. Voter Verification: Integration with NID database and fingerprint/biometric authentication. 2. Data Security: End-to-end encryption and blockchain-inspired architecture to ensure vote integrity. 3. Transparency: Real-time, tamper-proof vote counting and reporting dashboard for Election Commission officials. 4. Accessibility: Mobile and web-based interfaces allowing citizens, especially those in remote areas, to cast votes securely. 5. Scalability: Can be piloted in smaller elections (student councils, union parishads, or municipal polls) before nationwide implementation. Why This Project is Important for Bangladesh: It supports the Digital Bangladesh and Smart Bangladesh vision. Increases voter turnout by making the process more accessible and efficient. Reduces electoral expenses by minimizing reliance on paper ballots and manual counting. Enhances public trust by ensuring transparency and reducing opportunities for manipulation.

- Ideas/Suggestions: We need to have a farmland for Cloud Computing to get into the Information Technology of the Global Organizations If we are looking at the current IT landscape, Cloud Computing is one of a very few line item in the budget where spending is accelerating, along with mobile technology. We have one fundamental asset, and in a very differentiating way, people, and no shortage of it. We need to create a comprehensive plan utilize this massive asset, to develop Cloud Computing breeding ground, where we can make ourselves known. I have been in the industry for more 15 years, and with 20+ years of IT background, and I can see clearly this is where we can take a massive leap to bypass any other global competitor. Steps: 1) Build world class redundant data center 2) Build capability to operate data center technology 3) Build capability to operate cloud platforms 4) Culture latest programming technology into our standard curricula 5) Start promoting nation-wide competition for applications related to mobile technology using Public-Private-Partnership 6) Start developing methods, procedures, and human expertise to administer 7) Contribute to open technologies and create new 8) Create high-level board and working committees with rotating leadership with encouragement of young leaders 9) Bring global leaders to test out the talents and exhibits 10) Make global leaders member/chair or different working committees to nurture opportunities 11) Promote withing the NRBs and encourage to participate 12) Appoint international sales and support channels using public-private-partnership in prospect countries with charter to targeted sales onjectives 13) Continuously market in global events and bring global events to Bangladesh 14) Create/maintain emerging technology learning channels using web/classroom 15) Allow easily accessible funds with oversight I would say, this is definitely the time and place for it!! And let's do it..

This is an avoidable “Work Load†in the Tax Offices and a great Relief to the Public. ==- There are about 50.00Million (Five Crore) Telephone Subscribers and it is/will be a "Supervening Impossibility" for the GoB/ Tax Department to Ensure Compliance and to be able to handle so many Nil-Income Tax Returns. This is an avoidable “Work Load†= ( e.g. The Telephone Subscribers are known to include the Non-taxable Persons like the Garment Workers, Road-side Vendors/ Small Trader or Self-employed Persons in Villages, Riverine and Deep Sea Fishermen, agricultural Farmers, the Food Dealers, SME new Entrepreneur (having Trade Licenses, but mostly having No Taxable Incomes), Kitchen Helpers, Retarded/ Disabled Persons on the sick-beds, Aged persons in the Elderly Homes, Students, NRB's, etc. -- NB – Regretfully, it may be mentioned here that, the item of "Telephone" was Not originally Passed by the then National Parliament, as the then Finance Minister, Slain/Late Mr. SAMS Kibria, withdrew that Proposal from the House; but, as far as the memory goes, the GoB/ NBR mysteriously managed to publish / include it in a new Sub-section- '75A' in the Gazette/Finance Act ( of probably, 1997-98) and [ in the name of merger/ substitution etc.] subsequently got it ratified/ passed by the Parliament and it is a valid Law now. = = (2) the (sub) Section-75(1A)(a)(i)- which relates to the ownership of a HOUSE or Flat/ Building of 1600+ sft, in the Urban Area, shall have to be RELAXED, by inserting a Proviso, viz. // "Provided that where the Building / Flat or other House Property is occupied for the owner’s Residence and the Total Income of that person during the income year, including the Rental Income of other House Property(ies), if any, is within or below the Non-Taxable Limit, the Return of his/ her Income, under the paragraph (a)(i) of sub-section (1A) of Section 75, shall not fall due for filing." =- Reasons - It is fruitless or non-paying for the GoB, to handle so many Nil-Income Tax Returns.
