The keys to the development of a country
Development not only refers to socio-economic development, but is also relevant to the improvement of academic level, behavior, morals and ethics, culture, urbanization, women’s development, development of unemployment problem, the development of the population explosion, the development of the standard of living, interaction, communication, nutritional development for mothers and children and development in each layer, from alpha to omega.
Prof., Dr. Yunus became a winner of the Noble Prize for the invention of the concept of micro-credit for the dispossessed in our society. This concept has materialized throughout the world to improve socioeconomic status. Many people have changed their luck for a microcredit loan through Grameen Bank. These are the issues that are very important and should be considered from the perspective of the development of Bangladesh.
1. Academic development: We must start our journey from the grassroots level to develop Bangladesh. Every child must be insured regarding their entry to the School from the primary level. Our way of education is not so perfect for many years in a row. As a result, we are falling behind the global competition. This is why; we have fallen behind and failed to develop our future generation through proficiency in English. We need to introduce some radical change in the textbook curriculum so that our future children can flourish in line with global competition. When we get a good step in academics synchronized with socio-economic development, people’s behavior will finally change and people will be able to live in friendship with each other in society.
Illiteracy is surely a curse for a nation. You cannot think of the progress of a nation keeping its people illiterate. It seriously hampers the development of a country, so the peoples are behind in all aspects. Since most of the people in our country are illiterate, they do not know how to apply the scientific method in the field of agriculture to increase production. They have no knowledge of family planning, and as a result, the population is increasing rapidly, which is an obstacle to the development of a country. So, in order to eliminate illiteracy and develop the country, we must build more schools in different parts of the country and encourage parents to send their children to school. For adult education; a night school should also be established. A campaign against illiteracy must be launched so that ordinary people are aware of the need for education. Therefore, it is only through education that a nation can reach the pinnacle of prosperity.
If we bring the whole country under above average academic progress, people will change ethically and if we obey all government rules and regulations, then it won’t take any more time to make our country God’s country.
2. Development of women-people: The contributors of each human civilization are men and women. No pinnacle of success or development is possible without the participation of women in any society. They can also contribute to developing a society like men. Therefore, gender discrimination must be avoided. We should have to guarantee the education of women. We must not deprive them of their rights. They can also engage in all kinds of work. They have to cross the bar of their domestic activities and participate in all social development activities. If they get the right education and facilities, they can make a big change in education, administration, business and all other jobs to develop the country.
3. Poverty Alleviation: Poverty is the second great nightmare for the development of Bangladesh. Many NGOs are working across the country to suppress poverty by spreading micro-credit among poor people. But they should apply some exceptional device to win poverty. Doing something creative with unnecessary household items can be another part of the project. Let’s say, for example, Making dolls with a plastic bottle, Toy bus, Toy car with kaolin or an edible plastic can, Portable garbage with useless bucket, Toy house with fiberboard or corrugated paper and wax and so many things in this way to enrich our home and craft industry.
4. Development of the unemployment problem: The unemployment problem is a third great common crux of our country. A new project must be launched to eliminate this problem. We must motivate the unemployed to the Bull Coarsen Project, Fish Farming, Horticulture, Beekeeping, Goat Reaffirmation, Crab Farming and all other relevant projects for the emancipation of poverty. All these works are the emblem of patriotism.
5. Urbanization and standard of living development: The most integral part of development is to urbanize and further extend the number of flyovers to decrease traffic jam. More consideration should be given to the separation of streets for the smooth and free movement of vehicles; accordingly, the traffic jam will gradually disappear. Building a new project for people living in slums before evicting them should be given due consideration. Because the corporations in our city often evict them before moving them to a safe place. consequently, these people become homeless and engage in evil activities when darkness falls. The dire need is to rectify their way of life and employ them at work.
6. Nutritional development of mothers, young girls and adolescents: Maternal development in our country is so poor that mothers do not get the necessary proteins during pregnancy. And due to unavailable protein, expectant mothers and their subsequent children face lack of nutrition, consequently eventually giving birth to physically immature, weak, unfit, and autistic children. As for adolescent girls suffering from irregular anemia and those suffering from a deteriorated condition that is associated with the onset of puberty and sudden growth spurt, it is also wholly or partially responsible due to irregular vaccination and lack of nutrition. Therefore, we have to resist early marriage and make them fully aware of nutrition knowledge.
7. Development of the population explosion: In our country the population is increasing by leaps and bounds. The current population is almost triple in terms of the population that was in the 1971 operating period. We have to conduct a survey in a short time to estimate our current population in order to retake measures immediately so that the next population gradually approaches a normal level. movement rate. We should start the campaign on ‘A child for a family that will beget every child as an asset to the nation’, be it male or female. In a way, we will have to work tirelessly to reduce the population explosion from today, no doubt.
8. Development of the communication: The communication consists of two parts I) Communication in person and ii) Electronic transmission. Communication through the letter through the post office has not yet been improved. Most of the express letters are delivered late due to the lazy activity of the postmaster and people are often afraid of shipping products from one place to another as most of the time these products are lost in the course of transit. People became dependent on Courier instead of taking the Postal service. Electronic communication via the Internet has not improved due to the lack of high-speed Internet facilities. Therefore, the development of the postal service must be rejuvenated, on the other hand, the fiber optic cable for high-speed Internet has already been installed but has not been implemented so far. Steps must be taken immediately to extend the fiber optic connection to the Internet throughout the country.
9. Cultural development: Cultural events are no longer seen as before. The practice of cultural programs is shrinking day by day. So we have to motivate our people to keep in touch with cultural events like Pohela Baishak etc.
The things I paraphrased above are contrary to the overall development of Bangladesh. Actions should be taken as a framework considering the aforementioned issues for the development of the entire country. It goes without saying that if we are able to apply these things as I said above, the nation will never starve and the national renaissance may be in sight. Because we can’t keep this place forever, change is inevitable. Any country can develop if they are taught English completely from
‘Thanks in advance’
