She is competent enough.

Do you find any one not competent in the advisory team?

I think she is not competent and talks too much.

Much of the current mid-level and senior level-government officers are still loyal to the AL to some extent. These people benefitted the most under the AL, and these are where their votes come from (along with their friends and relatives). As long as these officers remain in their posts, this interim government remains extremely fragile. There are many BCS cadres who are patriotic and put Bangladesh first.

I once saw a government officer riding around a Maybach. A bloody Maybach!

The issue I see with the advisory team are filled with either people who are as old as the hills or people so young that they carry zero experience. I don't see how this will be congruent.

Asif Nazrul has proven to be extremely unreliable.
The Daily Star/Prothom Alo are not our friends. Their narrative behind their writings were very carefully choreographed at all times to serve some agenda.

You cannot just replace them suddenly as they have the knowledge and experience to run things.

IG cannot really do anything but reform the system so that new democratic governments can slowly make the bureaucracy more representative of the population.

Agree. It will take a lot of time to replace Bureaucrats. What Yunus govt could have done is placed some exemplary punishment on a few who are still involved in corruption, to get everyone fall back in line. They had plenty of time for that. That hasn't happened yet.

You of all people cannot be suggesting the bureaucracy can be magically clean when the vast majority of the people are corrupt?

As I have said before - upper echelons of BD is significantly less corrupt than their western and Indian peers. Just look at the number of billionaires and near billionaires. BD hardly has any.

BD is uniquely and highly corrupt at the bottom - that’s 100% down to the instincts of the population.

BD’s business elites are called corrupt for doing what Amazon and Google do everyday. Not repatriating revenue lol

You misunderstood my point.

I said representative of the population, which means its political leanings, as a lot have their current positions due to AL leanings.

As for lower level corruption a lot of that will go down with digitisation and with BD slowly growing in wealth as time passes by.

Agree that at the top BD is far less corrupt than others.

You would expect Hasina and her family to have looted billions in 15 years but that is not the case. Yes billions were looted over the last 15 years but that was across the whole AL membership.

I agree they are not so easy to replace. But they can be a hindrance toward necessary reforms. And IG can pass ordinances. If they remain, these reforms will take more time than expected.

Just still shaken that the secretariat building can be sabotaged so easily. No security. No fire warning systems. No working fire hydrants. Nothing.

Oh they did have fire drills. They just gathered around and drank Coca-Cola. lol.

I would be shocked if Hasina has amassed as much as Younus backer Clinton. Her clan definitely. But they were brutally murdered and tortured by the military regimes - so probably thinks they are owed.

Anyway, remember I told you my second cousin was a district level BNP leader? He is back in charge and doing great. Normal service resumed.

Like most Bangladeshis - we have foot in both camps lol

Carry on regardless!
