Dreams to come into reality
I would like to see the following things happen in my lifetime:
The governments of Pakistan and India and the people of these two countries have realised the futility of endless violence since October, 1947. Both sides have ceased all 'armed' operations and diverted the funds spent in pointless military engagements towards education, health services, infrastructure, social welfare etc.
2. ISIS in Iraq and Syria, Boko Haram in Nigeria, Al-Shabab in Somalia and Al-Qaida and other extremist outfits have been decisively defeated. Peace has returned to Middle East.
3. Israel's violence and aggression against Palestine has come to an end.
4. Bangladesh, India, Bhutan, Nepal, Pakistan, Myanmar and China have been linked by roads and railways paving the way for enhanced cooperation in trade, commerce, tourism etc.
5. Satellite townships have been built around Dhaka and they have been connected with the capital by roads and railways.
6. Dhaka metro railway system has become the main means of transportation and traffic congestion has significantly been reduced.
7. Bangladesh cricket team has beaten all the cricket playing countries and has been ranked among the top three.
