Yes, the facts on the issue have all been collected and made public through the print and electronic media. Now it is better to leave the question of authenticity. It should be determined by the people as they like.

Einstein said "Only two things are infinite, one is the universe and the other is human stupidity.”

No matter who wrote the article in The Washington Times, one good it did, if at all. The letter did play a part in US decision making - the suspension of the GSP by the US has brought Bangladesh government to its feet. Let us hope that the poor workers so long deprived of most of their basic rights get benefited now.

“Don't play foul with army" (July 4, 2013)

Totally confused. Wonder which is the true version. Guess we'll never know.

Then how did Reshma get new clothes during the rescue time?

Mofi

I am concerned more about the rest of the world's reaction if really Reshma's story was fabricated. The whole nation will be known as cheat, not only the Bangladesh army. May Allah save us from this humiliation!

Who are those people trying to make the army controversial, Mr. Major General? And why conspiracies began right after the army got charge of the Rana Plaza rescue operation? Can you please elaborate?

During her first term (1996 - 2000), she flew for a six-week private visit (turned into official) to be present at the birth of her grandchild! Obviously, the entire cost of her and her entourage's stay in USA was borne by the taxpayers of Bangladesh.

Qamar

It's nothing new. It's a matter of surprise to me why their marriage expenses are not paid from the taxpayers' money.

Saleh Tanveer

Our leaders appear to believe that the national exchequer is their own private piggy bank.

Dev Saha

Pretty pathetic! Why burden taxpayers with such extravaganza?
