- Ideas/Suggestions: Cover the major cities like Dhaka, Chittagong, etc with a wireless network for free. It hardly costs anything compared to the possible returns. We have more bandwidth (with fibre optic cables in place) than we could ever use. Govt has no way to utilize these. Let collective professionals set up a system. Compare it to subsidizing petrolium. A little "loss" here would eventually cause a software development boom that will help us a lot more.

- Ideas/Suggestions: "The necessities of a pomp, grandeur, and privatized port In Bangladesh" According to the Privatization Commission of Bangladesh, port and container handling is one of the thrusting sectors for privatization from among six other sectors such as Power Sector, Natural Gas and Oil Exploration, Tele Communication, Transport Sector, Aviation & Tourism, Banking & Insurance etc. There are quite bright prospects of private sector participation in improving port services in Mongla and Chittagong and in handling container services in the ports and other areas. The cargo handling in the port, which handles 80 percent of the country's export-import trade, often come to halt because of miss management and improper act of union leaders. The shippers on average have to count an extra 5,000 dollars loss every day in operational costs for each stranded ship. Given the delays and congestions at ports, leading to extensive demurrage charges for ships, a lot of attention on improving port productivity through better management systems and infrastructure developments are considered. There are numerous aims for privatization. First, privatization would attract new foreign direct investments, which would increase productivity and competitiveness. The investments would bring the port service up to international levels of efficiency. Second, privatization would increase trade at the national and regional levels, and directly or indirectly create jobs. Finally, introducing market based labor reform would reduce port labor costs on the public budget. However, a cohesive cooperation is expected from all related governmental organizations in order to provide a competitive condition in the commercial ports across the country. Let’s not procrastinate over the massive reforms of our port and cargo handling system before it gets bogged down.

- Ideas/Suggestions: To reduce campaign cost during the upcoming general election, EC may take initiave by making a provision that only one public meeting will be held in the locality (preferably in stadium), where all party will designate only two speakers and they will address the public attending this meeting.The format of the meeting could be arranged in a 'debate setting'. This will help avoid large cost incurred during election meetings and also help people to form their opinion objectively, as they will be listening to all shades of opinions from a single meeting

- Ideas/Suggestions: Government must focus on the processing of the agricultural products. This a totally untouched sector which offers economic ensurity of farmers, will create enormous potential consumers, stability of the market as the agriculteral raw materials or products are directly feed into the system. And last but not the least, earning a limitless foreign currrency. Though a few private industries are formed but there must be a secure government plan regarding these.

- Ideas/Suggestions: As we know, in our National flag, the red circle is not in the middle of the flag. In the Item 3(I) of the 'People's Republic of Bangladesh Flag Rules, 1972 (revised up to May, 1992)', Cabinet Division, Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh - Deputy Controller, Bangladesh Government Press, Dhaka, 1992, give the description of the national flag as: ``The national flag is bottle green in color and rectangular in size with the length to width ratio of 10:6 bearing a red circle on the body of the green. The red circle has a radius of one fifth of the length of the flag. Its center is placed on the middle of the perpendicular drawn from the nine twentieth part of the flag`` and the colours as: (a) Green - Procion Brilliant Green H-2RS 50 parts per 1000 (b) Red - Procion Brilliant Orange H-2RS 60 parts per 1000 Recently in many programs in Japan and also Japanese friends asked me the reasons of such a complex flag (as we know, in the Japanese flag, red color just center of the flag). I am sorry to telling you that due to my ignorance I could not explained it properly. Later, I asked few Bangladeshi friends and unfortunately did not get well answer. I think, off course, some reasons behind it, which I do not know. (Though, I did not find any informations related this either in net or mentioned in Flag rules chapter) In this regard, I would like to raise the issue to the net. If someone knows the reason why such a complex flag is produced, please let me know. I think, many of us asked the above mentioned question by the foreign peoples, specially the persons who are staying outside Bangladesh. In many aspects, we have to make or draw our National Flag and usually we do not follow the correct rules (as per flag rules), in that case, is it fair? Do we really believe the production (method) of our national flag is easily understandable or is it possible to produce by any general people or foreign persons? If not any strong reason behind to produce such a complex flag, do you not think, it needed to be modify and make simple and easy understandable National Flag (for example, red colour circle just in the centre of the green) . As we know, we modified our previous National flag once (in previous one, Bangladesh map inserted into the circle of red colour). In that case, why not we will change with easy method? I think, many of us have friends, relatives or known persons are now in the Member of National Parliament. If we really feel the issue is important then we can request some Parliament Members to initiate the issue to the Parliament.
