Prof Yunus urges people to help build a new Bangladesh
Dhaka, Aug 25 - Interim government Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus on Sunday urged the people to have patience to see mountain-like challenges are addressed gradually instead of putting force to address everything right now.
“I'll just say, you have to be patient. It is difficult to overcome mountain-like challenges overnight,” he said in a televised speech, mentioning what happened on the ground in line with demands coming from various sections and what is happening while taking accused people to the courts.
Prof Muhammad Yunus urged the people to come out from the tendency like forcing all claims to be met now, putting individuals at risk by entering in institutions, putting pressure to accept cases and the tendency of doing some kind of trial in advance by attacking people while taking to the courts.
The glory and potential to build a new Bangladesh will fade because of these things, the 2006 Nobel Peace Laureate said.
This was his second speech to the nation since his appointment as Chief Adviser to the interim government on August 8.-UNB
