Well, it is always a fantasy, but benevolent dictators tends to go bad after a decade or so.
Do you think he can vastly improve things within a decade?
Wont people still blame him, oppose him and clash with him when he is trying to do something good?

Democracy evolves organically, so if a dictator takes over today, he will reset the democracy clock.

Yes I'm aware of that. But a country can go bankrupt before democracy can mature. That's what I'm worried about. Mahathir's example is rare, so we can't be certain that technocratic dictatorship would work here. I really do wish there's a way to raise collective intelligence.

Bro, i used to think i was to the extreme right before coming to this forum, now i feel like a centrist lol.

It's good to be a centrist. Take sides only when you see opportunities. But for the greater good, strike both sides when you get the chance.

i am a capitalist first. BAL government's communist routes disgust me, I am pro ownership. But yes if awami league was giving me more business ventures, i'd switch my alliance, i honestly do not care which party. My job is to be good with everyone, i'd sell my goods to pacifists, talibals, chinese, indians....martians...i do not care....i am a capitalist.

Glad that I do.

Convenience is a priority in the short term. You see, knowing influential BJP and Congress people in India is good for business there.

But for the greater good, strike both sides when you get the chance.

Conviction is a goal for the long term. I guess.

[/COLOR]Two articles on this Blue Band Call group but with completely opposite opinions. Will this Blue Band Call create a Bangla Spring in the country?

Sir, William Nicholas Gomes, an ex-Muslim, who coverted into Christianity. He was caught in trafficking in Bangladeshi women. Moreover, he some how visits India on a regular basis. Now he is hidding in Hong Kong as there are some specific criminal cases against this man.
