Leaders of two rights groups on Sunday urged the government to reject "destructive" external assistance to protect the nation from being saddled with huge foreign debt.(UNB)
The plea came from the rights groups at a press conference at the National Press Club ahead of the two-day meeting of Bangladesh Aid Club, since renamed as Bangladesh Development Forum, to be held here February 15-16.

Awash in a sea of surfaces, distractions and palliatives, we unsurprisingly have failed to notice that the sun has already started to set on our adolescent empire.
Indeed, by most measures, the US is rapidly becoming a failed state.
