"We live in a world of finite resources. Changing how we consume these precious resources—safeguarding them for future generations—will require not only changing our behavior, but even learning a new language…
It all begins with words. By learning the words of this new language—the lexicon—you can start the conversation, even embrace ideas that had previously seemed foreign or irrelevant to your daily life. If you start by learning what the term food miles means, for example, the transformation begins."
“The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter,” said Mark Twain. “It’s the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.” The language of world change is all around us. Hear it. Tune into the ever-changing lexicons that help us make better choices. As you work to move your cause forward, know this: language matters.

I admire and My deepest honor and appreciation to the family of nation father for the secrifize they are doing for the country.
Currently, we are fully enjoying our freedom. May almighty give the nation father's family, the courage to open the truth of the war and punish the criminals.
I am still looking for revenge for the rape Pakistani army is commented to our Bengali girls and women.
It still echoes to my ear as the pain of cry like heart literally is coming off from the body. I never can forgive Pakistanis in my life.
War of Liberation, The began on 26 March 1971 and ended with the liberation
of Bangladesh on 16 December 1971. The armed struggle was the culmination of a
series of events, situations and issues contributing to the progressively
deteriorating relations between East and West Pakistan. The questions of land
reforms, state language, inter-wing economic and administrative disparities,
provincial autonomy, the defense of East Pakistan and many other consequential
questions had been straining the relations between the two wings of Pakistan
ever since independence of the country from Britain in 1947.
The general elections of 1970 had made sheikh mujibur rahman, the leader of the
awami league which bagged 167 seats out of 169 allotted for East Pakistan, the
sole spokesman of the people of East Pakistan and majority leader in the
Pakistan National Assembly. But the Pakistan civil and military ruling clique
had refused to transfer power to the majority leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and
his party. Sheikh Mujib also refused to yield to the pressure put on him for
undue accommodation. Sheikh's historic address on 7 March 1971 made this point
quite clear to the Pakistani military junta. Then began the civil disobedience
movement. Meanwhile talks started between Mujib and Yahya to resolve the
outstanding issues. While holding talks, the Pakistani military junta was
bringing more troops to Bangladesh and at the same time wantonly killing
innocent civilians all over the country. This clearly showed that they were
totally insincere about handing over power to the elected representatives of
Bangladesh. No sooner the talks failed, the genocide began, with the Pakistan
army's crackdown on the people of East Pakistan on the midnight of 25 March
1971. The Bengali soldiers serving in the then Pakistan Armed Forces and para
militia forces declared instantly their solidarity with the people's liberation
war.
The Pakistan Army was ordered to launch operation on Bengali people at midnight
of 25 March. According to the plan for operation Search Light two headquarters
were established. Major General Rao Farman Ali with 57 Brigade under Brigedier
Arbab was responsible for operation in Dhaka city and its suburbs while Major
General Khadim Raja was given the responsibility of the rest of the province.
Lieutenant General Tikka Khan assumed the overall charge of the operation.
The students and the nationalist political activists put up resistance outside
the cantonment. Road blocks were raised to obstruct the march of the Pakistani
column to the city areas. The wireless set fitted jeeps and trucks loaded with
troops groaned on the streets of Dhaka City at midnight of 25 March.
The first column of the Pakistan army faced obstruction at Farmgate about one
kilometre from the cantonment due to a huge road block created by placing big
tree trunks across the road. The hulks of old cars and unserviceable steam
roller, were also used. Several hundred people chanted the slogan Joi Bangla
which lasted for about 15 minutes. But soon guns silenced them. The army moved
into the city before scheduled time and started the genocide.
The military forces killed everybody in sight on the footpath and destroyed
everything on their way. The tanks roared through the streets of Dhaka blasting
indiscriminately at the people and official and residential buildings. They
gunned down clusters of settlements and set fire on them. Scores of artillery
bursts were pounded, while the tanks rumbled into the city roaring the main
streets. The student halls of residence at Dhaka University were raided and
numerous students residing there were brutally killed and maimed. They also
killed many teachers of Dhaka University. The Hindu concentrated areas of old
Dhaka were particularly targeted. They started killing the people, burnt their
houses, looted their valuables and raped their women. The genocide that was
perpetrated on the unarmed people was flashed in the world press.
On 26 March Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was taken prisoner by the Pakistan army. At
about the same time, Major ziaur rahman announced Bangladesh's independence on
behalf of Sheikh Mujib from Kalurghat radio station at Chittagong.
There were spontaneous uprisings throughout Bangladesh following the call of
independence. These uprisings were participated by government officials,
political activists, students, workers, peasants, professionals and members of
the public. After initial resistance, many freedom fighters crossed over into
Indian territory to have safe sanctuary, due mainly to the enemy's overwhelming
superiority of trained soldiers and modern weapons. The scattered and
temporarily retreating rudimentary liberation forces were soon brought under a
unified command.
On 4 April, the senior officers of the liberation army assembled at the
headquarters of 2nd East Bengal at Teliapara, a semi hilly area covered by tea
gardens where Colonel MAG Osmany, Lieutenant Colonel Abdur Rob, Lieutenant
Colonel Salahuddin Mohammad Reja, Major Kazi Nuruzzaman, Major khaled mosharraf,
Major Nurul Islam, Major Shafat Jamil, Major Mainul Hossain Chowdhury and others
were present. In this meeting four senior commanders were entrusted with the
responsibility of operational areas. Sylhet-Brahmanbaria area was placed under
the command of Major Shafiullah. Comilla-Noakhali area was given to Major Khaled
Mosharraf while Chittagong-Chittagong Hill Tracts was given to Major Ziaur
Rahman. Kushtia-Jessore area was placed under command of Major Abu Osman
Chowdhury. In the meeting the organisational concept of the freedom fighter
forces and the command structure were chalked out. Colonel MAG Osmany was to
command the liberation forces, later named as mukti bahini.
An exile government called the People's Republic of Bangladesh alias mujibnagar
government headed by tajuddin ahmed was formed on 10 April. On the next day
Tajuddin Ahmed announced the names of three more regional commanders. Captain
Newazish for Rangpur region, Major Najmul Haque for Dinajpur-Rajshahi-Pabna and
Major Jalil for Barisal-Patuakhali region. All these regions were later named as
sectors. All of Bangladesh was divided into eleven such sectors and different
sub-sectors for operational purposes during the Sector Commander's conference
held from 10 to 17 July 1971.
On 27 March, Prime Minister of India Mrs. Indira Gandhi expressed full support
of her government to the freedom struggle of the Bengalis. Indian Border
Security Force (BSF) opened Bangladesh-India border to allow the tortured and
panick stricken Bengalis to have safe shelter in India. The governments of West
Bengal, Bihar, Assam, Meghalaya and Tripura established refugee camps along the
border. These camps became ready ground for recruitment of the freedom fighters.
The students, peasants, workers and political activists joined the Mukti Bahini
with high spirit to liberate Bangladesh from the Pakistan army. They were given
training on tactics and the use of arms and explosives. On completion of
training, they were posted to different sectors to fight the enemy. The
headquarters of the Bangladesh Forces was established at 8 Theatre Road,
Calcutta which started functioning from 12 April 1971. Lieutenant Colonel M A
Rab and Group Captain A K Khandaker were appointed as Chief of Staff and Deputy
Chief of Staff respectively.
Besides Mukti Bahini, many other bahinis were organised inside Bangladesh at
different places to fight Pakistan Army. These Bahinis included Kader Bahini of
Tangail, Latif Mirza Bahini of Sirajganj, Akbar Hossain Bahini of Jhinaidah,
Hemayet Bahini of Faridpur, Quddus Molla and Gafur Bahini of Barisal, Afsar
Bahini of Mymensingh and Aftab Bahini of Mymensingh. A crack platoon consisting
of daring youths operated most valiantly in Dhaka city as well. These bahinis
were established as a local force based on their own strength taking part in a
number of battles with the occupation army. Siraj Sikdar, leader of Sorbohara
Party, also organised his force in Barisal. Another Bahini named as Mujib Bahini
was organised in India with the active assistance of Major General Oban of the
Indian army an expert on guerilla warfare. Mujib Bahini was trained at Dehradun.
Student League leaders sheikh fazlul haq mani, Tofael Ahmed, Abdur Razzak and
Sirajul Alam Khan were organisers of this Bahini.
Mukti Bahini consisted of the regular and the irregular forces. The regulars
were later called 'Niomita Bahini' (regular force) and the irregulars were
called 'Gono Bahini' (people's Force). The regulars included East Bengal
Regiment and EPR troops. The irregular forces, which after initial training
joined different sectors, consisted of the students, peasants, workers and
political activists.
Irregular forces were inducted inside Bangladesh territory to adopt guerilla
warfare against the enemy. The regular forces were engaged in fighting in
conventional way. The first conventional brigade named as 'Z' Force was created
in July. Major Ziaur Rahman was appointed commander of this brigade and the
brigade was named as 'Z' Force after the first letter of his name. This brigade
consisted of 1, 3 and 8 East Bengal. Second regular brigade 'S' Force was
created in October and consisted of 2 and 11 East Bengal. 'S' Force was named
after the initial letter of the name of its commander Shafiullah. Similarly the
'K' Force created with 4, 9 and 10 East Bengal which was commanded by Khaled
Mosharraf.
Bangladesh Air Force, which was organised by Air Commodore A K Khondaker, was
created in Dimapur of Nagaland on 28 September. Squadron Leader Sultan Mahmud,
Flight Lieutenant Badrul Alam, Captain Khaleq, Sattar, Shahabuddin, Mukit, Akram
and Sharfuddin and 67 airmen initially joined the Bangladesh Air Force, which
had only few Dakota, Auter type air plane and Aluvet helicopters.
Similarly, Bangladesh Navy was also established with the Naval troops deserted
from the Pakistan Navy. On 9 November 1971, the first naval fleet 'Bangabandhu
Naubohar' consisting of six small ships was inaugurated. The command structure
of the Bangladesh Forces was fully organised with the regular brigades, sector
troops and guerilla forces, the Bangladesh Airforce and the Navy. The Mukti
Bahini had fought many successful battles in putting up initial resistance. But
within a short time, they were temporarily contained by the Pakistan army and
were compelled to withdraw to the safe sanctuary in the Indian territory. The
Mukti Bahini was, however, re-equipped, reorganised and retrained. As a result,
it got into fighting with fresh zeal after April-May 1971.
At the international level, the United States and the People's Republic of China
considered the crisis as an internal affair of Pakistan. On the other hand,
India, Soviet Union and her allies and general masses in Japan, and Western
countries stood solidly behind Bangladesh. In order to gain strategic advantage
vis-a-vis Sino-US-Pakistan axis, Indo-Soviet Friendship Treaty was signed on 9
August 1971. It provided a new dimension to the War of Liberation.
Having realised that the Pakistan army could not be defeated by conventional
warfare method, it was decided to create large guerilla forces all over the
country. All Sector commanders were accordingly ordered to recruit, train and
induct guerillas inside the country.
The joint command of the Mukti Bahini and the Indian army was underway from
November 1971. Lieutenant General Jagjit Singh Aurora, Commander, Eastern
Command of Indian Army, became the commander of the joint forces. The joint
command of the Mukti Bahini and the Indian Army, however, started operation from
the evening of 3 December, when the Pakistan Air Force bombed Amritsar, Sree
Nagar and the Kashmir valley. Immediately, the Indian armed forces were ordered
to hit back the Pakistan army and thus the Indo-Pak war broke out. The Mukti
Bahini and the Indian army continued advancing inside Bangladesh and the defeat
and surrender of the Pakistan army became a matter of time. International
efforts for a cease-fire before Bangladesh is fully liberated failed due to
Soviet veto in the United Nations Security Council.
The Indian troops and the freedom fighters of No 11 Sector reached Tongi on 14
December and Savar in the morning of 16 December. Major General Jamshed,
commander 36 Division of the Pakistan Army received Major General Nagra at
Mirpur Bridge near Dhaka City. The Mukti Bahini and the Indian forces entered
Dhaka city at 10.10 a. m. Major General Jacob, the Chief of Staff of the Indian
Eastern command landed at Dhaka airport at 1 p.m. with the draft instrument of
surrender. A fleet of helicopters landed on the tarmac of Dhaka airport at about
4 p.m. with Lieutenant General Aurora and his staff. Group Captain AK Khandaker,
Deputy Chief of Staff, Bangladesh Forces represented the Mukti Bahini.
Lieutenant General AAK Niazi received Lieutenant General Aurora. The instrument
of surrender was signed by Lieutenant Jagit Sing Aurora and Lieutenant General
Niazi at the ramna racecourse (now Suhrawardy Uddyan) at one minute past 5 p.m.
on 16 December 1971. [Rafiqul Islam]

Changes to the map of Bangladesh due to rising new island in the Bay of Bengal.
Rising islands in the Bay of Bengal has gradually become the permanent land.
In the past four decades, thousands of square kilometers of new lands have been added to Bangladesh.
The exact account was not available for a survey yet. But the amount of this land is huge.
It is estimated that the new land is already extended into one-tenth of Bangladesh's mainland.
Among them, Chittagong, Noakhali, Cox's Bazar, Patuakhali, Feni and Bhola are estimated to have a new land of tens of thousands of square kilometers.
The new land has been built surround Sandeep is 148 square kilometers, just over the last half a decade.
40 permanent new islands have been found on the bank of Meghna coast, approximately about 2 thousand square kilometers.
In Meghna, there are more than 75 new rising island has been added to the survey list.
As such there has seen a possibility of getting half of the new land in current Bangladesh in the next two decades.
The local says the new land amount not only added the country's landmass, but also new possibilities and fulfilling dreams.
The new rising land has met the demand for foreign investment when they need a bigger land, to make a bigger project inside the country.
The government has planned to create economic zones for foreign investment in Chittagong, Cox's Bazar and Fenni into the new rising land. The new grounds were taken from the Forestry Department's new forestry project too.
It is an opportunity, not just at the official level, but a dream fulfilled by marginalized people. People without land of living started to make their houses and the farmers of landless have started agriculture on these extended grounds.
The studies of the Government Research Institute for Environment and Geographical Information Services (SIGIS) said in 2008, the amount of waking up to the rising island is much higher than 1973 in the country, which has a new 597 square kilometer.
At this time, a breakdown of 1 thousand square kilometers of land has been recalled, up from 1 thousand to 642 square kilometers. Later in 2013, government agencies at the land Resources Development Institute said studies have woken up to a new land of 5 thousand 471 square kilometers of different coastal range from 1971 to 2010.
It has been classified by the government from 2000 to 2010. Nijhum Island, Charkbira, Charalim, Sagaria, Uchkhali, New Dalchar, kerring Charasah have been able to connect with the mainland.
The new land in Nizum Dip, Chorkobira, Choralim, Shagoria, UchKhali, and Kering island holds about 5 thousand square kilometers lands in the Noakhali district around this time.
Now in Urirchar a cross dam initiative has been taking to connect the mainland to the Sandip mainland. It will be possible to connect together rising land in the future. It is known that the new land benefits from 1970, due to creating different cross dams.
The Cross dam make possible with the help of the Netherlands.
The Water Development Board, Forestry Department, Ministry of Land, Agricultural Department, and some other government offices are working together to the rising land and land properties and make it into the permanent land.
In this case, they block the coastal area through the installation of dams and cross dams first, when water ran away and turn zero, it creates new land by clogging the poli soil.

The humanitarian crisis caused by escalating violence in Myanmar’s Rakhine State is causing suffering on a catastrophic scale. Estimated 905,000 refugees in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.
Since Aug. 25, 2017, about 700,000 people from Myanmar have fled to Bangladesh because of extreme violence in northern Rakhine state, on the country’s western Bay of Bengal coast. They arrived with injuries caused by gunshots, shrapnel, fire and landmines.
Most of the Myanmar refugees identify as Rohingya, a Muslim minority ethnic group, in predominantly Buddhist Myanmar. Flooding into camps near the town of Cox’s Bazar, they joined more than 200,000 people who escaped to Bangladesh years earlier.
Refugee children are generally at high risk of disease and malnutrition, physical harm and violence. Since heavy monsoon rains began in early June, conditions have worsened.
We should all support the good cause and support the government of Bangladesh for the big heart, country has shown and showing towards Rohingya refugees.

Kids are protesting on the street of Bangladesh and they are taking the law and order of the country into their hands is not acceptable by any civil society.
This is a total inability of our government to manage the country. Putting youngster into the street, a total failure, total inability, total corruption of the government.
The government should shut down and put the management of the country to somebody else. Bangladesh is not a war-torn country. Democracy you have earn it by reapplying it through the process flow.
Those kids has seen it all, what's future we aspect from those kids. It is total government fault, that government is making some of the future terrorist among those kids.
Kids should to be playing and having fun with their lives, not going through the stress, danger and phsyological changes currently they are in. Kids should be growup as kids with the support of our parents.
Knowledge is the first and formost criteria in Islam. If management of the country does not have it, they should not be in this profession. Politics and politicians of Bangladesh has not right to put our kids into danager.
Highlighted note: Kids are the backbone of any country's future foundation. What kind of future generation, we are creating? Stay in power by sacrifising severe consequences in future not a longlasting political ideology?

Bangladesh is considered one of the most suitable regions for fisheries in the world, with the world's largest flooded wetland and the third largest aquatic biodiversity in Asia after China and India.
Bangladeshi inland fisheries, primarily in the inland aquaculture sector play a great role to boost Bangladesh to 1st in world auaculcure production by 2020. This increase in the aquaculture production has been made possible with the implementation of scientific and technological modernization.
From 2000 and 2016, aquaculture production increased from 712,640 and 2,060,408 metric ton,a much larger quantity than wild capture production (1.023 million t) in 2016.
Name of Fish that grows and cultivates are as follows:
Rui (Labeo rohita), Catla (Catla catla), Mrigal (Cirrhinus cirrhosus), Kalibaus (Labeo calbasu), Bata (Labeo Bata), Ghonia (Labeo gonius),Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio), Other Exotic Carp, Pangas (Pangasius pangasius), Boal/Air (Wallago attu/Sperata aor/Sperata seenghala), Shol/Gazar/Taki (Channa striatus/C. marulius/C. punctatus), Koi (Anabas testudineus), Singi/Magur (Heteropneustes fossilis/Clarias batrachus), Big Prawn, Small Prawn,Tilapia/Nilotica (Oreochromis mossambicus/O. niloticus), Sarpunti (Puntius sarana) and other Fish.
Aquaculture is the farming of fish and other aquatic organisms, with ‘farming’ implying some form of intervention to increase productions, and some form of private rights of the stock under intervention.
Two types of aquaculture practices are going on in Bangladesh such as, freshwater and coastal aquaculture.
Freshwater aquaculture is mainly comprised of pond farming of carps (indigenous and exotic), Mekong pangasid catfish, tilapia, Mekong climbing perch, and a number of other domesticated fish, though in lesser scale. Coastal aquaculture is mainly comprised of shrimp and prawn farming in ghers (coastal pond or enclosures).
The inland aquaculture has generally experienced the fastest growth, with the establishment of new technologies, species, and intensification and improvement of farming, particularly in pond aquaculture, entirely over the country.
There has also been a recent increase in the value of fishery exports, with more than US $34.08 billion in 2010 rising to more than US $46.60 billion in 2015. However, fisheries production is well below production targets despite the large gains seen in the aquaculture sector.
Aquaculture now provides around half the fish for direct human consumption in Bangladesh and is set to grow further. Aquaculture industry contributes to the economy with increasing production capacity and high export opportunities.
Over the last 12 years, the average growth rate of fisheries is 5.4%, while aquaculture has grown 8.2%. This recent and rapid development has boosted Bangladesh to 3rd in world aquaculture production (DoF, 2018).

Major key Benefits are as follows:
1. China slapped a 25 per cent retaliatory duty on over 100 US goods and commodities, including cotton. Global commodity prices for cotton have been on a downward trend since then.
The US is one of the largest cotton producers and imposition of tariffs is expected to decelerate the pace of its raw cotton exports. Bangladesh is the largest importer of cotton. Lower price, higher profit from garment insustries.
2. Bangladesh’s capital market, third-largest in South Asia, turns out to be the latest turf in the strategic rivalry between China and India. Bourses from both countries are bidding for a 25% share of the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), which is courting foreign investment as part of its demutualization process. While the DSE board initially approved the Chinese proposal, the country’s financial regulatory commission appears to be in favor of India’s bid, making it yet another power play between the two Asian giants.
3. China lowered commitments to buy 366,000 metric tons of U.S. soybeans in the season that ends Aug. 31 2018 and cut purchases by 66,000 tons in the following year. That’s according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data released Friday for the week ended June 28, 2018 About 60,000 tons originally slated for China this season will now go to Bangladesh and another 60,000 tons to Pakistan.
4. China and Bangladesh has also been on the upswing. Chinese President Xi Jinping visited Bangladesh in 2016 and sealed numerous deals worth almost $15 billion.
5. China will "compel" Saudi Arabia to trade oil in yuan and, when this happens, the rest of the oil market will follow suit and abandon the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency, a leading economist told CNBC on Monday, July, 02-2018.
Moving oil trade out of dollars into yuan will take right now between $600 billion and $800 billion worth of transactions out of the dollar. It is a growth plus for China and that's why they want this to happen.
More to come as we follow the market...
