I agree with Mr Kazi to the extent that many of the ministers seem very incompetent. Mr Sohel-Taj said out loud on TV that the Garment-Industry is likely to be a victim of the extremist ( you are not to show them our weakness, period!) , Mr. Farook Khan distributed his cell phone number at the beginning of his ministry ( I wonder how many prank or 1 AM calls he got) and made 180-degree turn on government approach to syndication, the home-ministry never thought thru the BRD mishap and let thousands of BDR flee, our FM did not ask Mr. Annisul Huq of FBCCI how he came to the conclusion that BD bailout should cost 6000-koti?

The AL manifesto also seems incomplete. Its been months now but still no details on the so called Digital-Bangladesh. The PM comes out with some wicked un-thought-thru proposals here and there but no coherent plans anywhere. I see no movement with in the Information/Technology ministry.

I don’t think these new ministers are dishonest or in the game for the money, or they are lacking good-intentions, some are just plain old incompetent, and it may prove too costly to our patient and poor nation to allow learn-on-the-job for the un-brights.

I am eager to see what Minister Dipumni does with the Malaysia crisis. Its time to see what metal she is made of. Thanks.
