Iranian leadership has demonstrated remarkable resilience, shaped by the mosaic defence, the bolster policy of Iran after the death of Kashem Soleimani.
Policy predictability must become a cornerstone of economic management. Investors must be assured that agreements will be honoured and that regulatory frameworks will not shift unpredictably. At the same time, bureaucratic processes must be simplified and digitized to reduce delays and discretion.
Modern warfare increasingly targets economic infrastructure rather than traditional military formations. Oil terminals, pipelines, power plants and ports have become instruments of pressure in conflicts across the world. The objective is not merely to defeat an enemy army but to weaken an adversary’s economic foundations.
Strengthening healthcare services means investing in frontline workers, improving facility readiness, ensuring reliable supplies of essential medicines, and better integrating services across the continuum of care.
Women were not mere supporters; they were shapers of conditions, bearers of risk, and, in many cases, decisive actors. The war cannot be imagined without them, but its written history has often proceeded as though it could.
Bangladesh is not short of clever people or workable ideas. What we are short of is institutional willingness to treat a crisis as something other than an inconvenience to be weathered.
The endurance to hardship, spirit and skills to fight when forced, maturity to restrain, legacy of history to forge their own system of governance rather than blindly copy from the West, are the forte of these old but rich civilizations.

Do not wait for perfect leaders or ideal conditions. Be the example. Act locally. Think nationally. Stand firmly for honesty and integrity, nurture skills, and practise good manners persistently.
Albert Camus wrote that we must imagine Sisyphus happy but for those caught in Bangladesh’s cycles of performative governance, happiness is not the point. Each new deadline, each “operation,” each raid is a boulder pushed up the hill. The problem rolls back down, and we begin again.
Myanmar stands as a stark reminder that in today’s world, geography is destiny only until strategy intervenes
Sometimes the most revealing view of a country is not from above, but from within the flow of its everyday life
Bangladesh now needs a clear economic roadmap and renewed emphasis on economic and energy diplomacy.
The goal is to have a unified and cohesive story, an antithesis to the common phenomenon of students accumulating certificates like trophies, so that when they finally face their goal, the student does not essentially become a detriment to the system.
A class of divinely chosen people has the power, endowed by God, to read the esoteric meaning of the Quran and the capacity to guide their own path and that of their followers to connect to the ultimate reality through a mystic journey, which is the foundation of the doctrine of Sufism.
Justice must not only be done but must be seen to be done; impartially, consistently, and without fear or favor. For ordinary citizens to trust the system, they must believe that the law protects them equally, regardless of wealth, influence, or affiliation.
