In this third episode of Nuraldeen podcast, participants discuss what have been happening in Bangladesh since August 16. First Rumi Ahmed leads discussion on the incredible challenges facing the Interim Government in forming a powerful administration from the ruins left by the rampant politicization of the previous regime. Then Ehteshamul Haque sheds light on the legal challenges in holding detained officials with quickly formed charges and indictments. I very briefly note signs of progress on the economic front. The discussion concludes with a brief prelude to the furious debate about constitutional reform that has been going on in Bangladesh and promises the next episode to solely focus on that hot topic.
Recorded on 2 September 2024.

Fast fashion drove Bangladesh - now its troubled economy needs more

Our judiciary isn't helped by the fact that many of our judges get training in India which is ruled by a despotic judiciary.
The people who rebuilt Germany and Japan after WW2 were prominent leaders in previous fascist governments. If the post war administrations had purged the government like you're suggesting both of these countries would not have succeeded.
This is the problem with Bengalis. We never get any conservatives just second rate utopianism.
I'm also against most of the constitutional reforms. Any and all reforms should be passed only after referendum with a 60+% minimum threshold.
