Army chief urges new officers to face challenges with courage
General Waker-Uz-Zaman emphasizes their responsibility to protect Bangladesh's independence and sovereignty
Chief of Army Staff General Waker-Uz-Zaman has urged newly commissioned officers to prioritise patriotism and demonstrate courage in handling any situation.
The army chief made the remarks during the President’s Parade, marking the commissioning of new officers at the Bangladesh Military Academy (BMA) Parade Ground in Chittagong on Tuesday.
Speaking at the event, General Waker-Uz-Zaman emphasized the grave responsibility placed on the new officers to safeguard the country's independence and sovereignty.
"You (newly commissioned officers) have to be ready to face any challenge," he said.
Highlighting the importance of patriotism, he said: "Patriotism should be given the highest importance in keeping the military consciousness and values in harmony and in taking any decision."
He also urged the newly commissioned officers to set exemplary standards for their subordinates in the workplace.
Waker-Uz-Zaman reiterated that discipline is the cornerstone of the army.
"The army is an institution where discipline is the main driving force; all the prescribed rules and regulations are conducted here. It will take a conscience to make the final decision on any matter. You should not forget that the working people of the country have contributed a lot to build you."
A total of 231 officer cadets, including 24 female cadets, were commissioned from the 87th BMA Long Course and the 59th BMA Special Course.
The parade began at 9am at the BMA Parade Ground in Bhatiari. The army chief, as the chief guest, inspected the parade and received the salute.
On arrival at the venue, General Waker-Uz-Zaman was welcomed by the general officer commanding, Army Training and Doctrine Command, the General Officer Commanding the 24 Infantry Division, and the Commandant of the Bangladesh Military Academy.
At the conclusion of the ceremony, the newly commissioned officers were adorned with rank badges by their proud parents.
The event was attended by the commandant of the Sri Lanka Military Academy, along with senior civil and military officials from home and abroad.

For last few months this was on my mind also. Specially after the pager attack in Lebanon.
Buying of the shelf units are too risky, and susceptible to enemy sabotage.
The demand of communication equipment is very high for all branches of Armed forces and other law enforcement agencies.
If the armed forces Division takes over TESIS ( টেলিফোন শিল্প সংস্থা) and starts manufacturing this devices im house, it will be a great achievement for BD

Completely Agree. Any communication device used by the forces should be locally produced. We don't want to leave door open for foreign intel to snoop on our activities.
Bangladesh's overall Cyber defence needs to bolstered too. Is there a wing within army or the joint forces who has oversight of this? @Afif
Guys you are deriving wrong lesson from Mosad's pager attack. It was one of a kind. The context for state armed forces are not the same.
When procurement contract is signed there are usually provisions in the agreement that ensure security.
For exmaple, there maybe delegation from buyers who travels to the providing country to observe the manufacturing and assembly process. (I saw this in a UAV tender of BD army)
There are also measures to ensure safe and secure shipment.
And if the seller end is still a cocnern, keep in mind there friendly countries like Türkiye and PRC to procure critical
equipments.
Plus, we don't have any other option either. I can almost guarantee you that this initiative is about tactical unit net and maybe manpack radios. No one is gonna provide us ToT to manufacture medium and long range state of art HF and VHF Software defined radios. Those are still needs to be procured.
Also, there are C2 post and sophisticated management systems which are at the heart of today's combat communication systems that we simply cannot manufacture.
Btw, army bought Aselsan's TASMUS back in 2014.

Then the design and software should be in house too. Hardware zero day exploits can leave all units compromised and software that isn’t protected at kernel level and patched regularly can also compromise security.
I’m no expert in this but in my school days I used to tinker with iOS exploits.

The radios you mentioned, do Pakistan and turkey make them for export?Guys you are deriving wrong lesson from Mosad's pager attack. It was one of a kind. The context for state armed forces are not the same.
