Hasina’s another term can make a big difference for Bangladesh: Muhith

[VikingRaider]

Fakhruddin's govt is the beet govt I've seen in BD. I have said it several times here. But people wanted Hasina/Khaleda back.

let them choose whomever they want , give a fair election and that's all we want .

Democracy is useless in a country like ours. People ends up electing war criminals like Nizami, elects known goons like Joynal Hazari, Pintu.

So, the alternative is a Communist dictatorship, but not the Hasina dictatorship. hasina elects the similar group of people that you have criticized. Begum Zia same. However, considering our mindset even a communist dictatorship is not good enough to bring about a good governance in Bangladesh.

Military dictatorship may be good, but it may not be feasible when BAL and BCL people are doing anarchy in the streets. So, the best way is to arrange a fair election every time by which at least the people have the choice not to vote for a person with a bad record in the past.

This is happening in Pakistan. They introduced the CTG after we did. But, Hasina got rid of it unceremoniously. Pakistan is a success and BD is bickering.

No did not research before ! Just knew the common popular figure of AL won 74% vote from East Pakistan .

You are correct of the 74% of the votes cast. But, I said about the percentage of the total number of voters in the east, who voted and also who did not vote. It was 53%.

If you were to choose between democracy or development, which one would you? The way I see, Zia, Fakhruddin, or even Ershad were better than the democratically elected leaders.

Changing govt every 5 years is not necessarily the best thing to do. Causes a lot of disruption. Democracy should take its course, when democracy can flourish. When the country is more developed and people are educated to know who they are voting for.

Oh I see!

Firstly , one thing is very is very clear and that is Bangladesh developed in electricity sector and it's unquestionable , specially in BNP regime it was almost destroyed.
So this is the decisive credit I can give to awami league.
And yes I admit that AL did some great work, and BNP leader Begam zia is a foolish woman with zero political sense.
She is more of a good mother and perhaps a good wife ( perhaps as only zia can declare it, not any one else ), a wife of an army officer.
She is not a politician and it's proven that she hasn't this capability of leading Bangladesh .
But rest of BNP leaders, specially military officers are far better leaders I believe. And anyone outside zia family will perform much better.
But that's not the case . Let's talk about your changing in each five years . Yes in a country like Bangladesh where politicians are enemy to each others, still I believe that AL is already in power for the longest time of BD history and BNP is going through a political penace and it's actually taught them good lesson.
Besides less democracy and more development is simply an awami idea and you can't impose on others.
Why don't you give a fair election, maybe others will make our country more developed, after their salvation?
And also @bluesky already answered your question properly and I don't think I need to explain further .
Just give the others a fair chance and let's see what happen. You saw the eruption against AL govt for quota movement and also safe Road?
Our kids are now much more conscious, and if we practice democracy, now it will not be bad, as if any problem will occur, boys will start move again.

To be honest, both BNP and AL care more about staying in power than development. Both parties are corrupt. AL's development model and execution is slightly better than BNP's.
Right now AL gives stability which is essential for growth. So they must stay. If it was an open field, I would've preferred a military rule in BD for 10 years. Military officials are disciplined and knows how to get things done unlike politicians. But giving military too much power can cause problems too like in Pakistan.
Changing govt every five years has a lot of drawbacks. The new party that comes in power tries to take revenge and policy changes also stalls developments. And a lot of ongoing development work started by previous govt comes to a still. This is not desirable for a country like our's.
Like I said before BD needs to improve further before it can enjoy benefits of democracy. People are to lazy to analyze things and vote. They just vote along party lines or just vote against the governing party. You cannot have good democracy with half educated and illiterate populace. @bluesky

AL's development model and execution is sligh

At least for current condition yes. But don't forget the development model of Ziaur Rahman. And also now a professor is suspended from DU only because of জোতির্ময় জিয়া, so how can we be so sure that if they will be elected again then they will not start harassing every one?

@UKBengali come and defend AL for this action .

f it was an open field, I would've preferred a military rule in BD for 10 years. Military officials are disciplined and knows how to get things done unlike politicians. But giving military too much power can cause problems too like in Pakistan.

giving military too much power ? Are you kidding ? Tell me why khaleda zia did not survive after 15 february 1996 election and why AL is surviving ? Do not ignore this question , just tell me okay? Then we will talk on this subject.

I don't know what happened in 1996. I was less than a month old when the election took place in 1996. Hasina initially was not popular with the military when she came to power. But eventually she offered military a lot of things like gave army officials plot and other benefits. And now army is backing her. BD army Doesn't really take part in politics. Hasina is more dependent on police and adminstration.

About the first part of your post, BD is now in a crucial stage. Right now it should focus only on development. Criticizing Mao was not allowed in China for a long time. Wait and things will take its course. Hasina won't rule forever. Stalin's successor Kruschev de-Stalinized Soviet. Criticizing Mao was eventually allowed in China. AL will push their narrative as long as Hasina is in power. These things will change eventually. Hopefully after one more term we will see someone other than Hasina and Zia in power.

Please give us the formula for BAL to stay indefinitely if the populace does not support it in the general election. Another way is to ask the voters to participate in a YES or NO vote instead of general election. But, it requires to amend the Constitution before going after such a popular voting, and no one knows the outcome of such a voting. Since none of these things is going to happen, the only way is to get re-elected in the next election. But, this must be free and fair.
