Heartfelt greetings and warm felicitations
The Island
|March 26, 2025
The great Independence and National Day of Bangladesh. On this auspicious occasion, I extend my heartfelt greetings and warm felicitations to my fellow Bangladeshis living at home and abroad.
-
On March 26, 1971, through the Declaration of Independence, an Independent and sovereign Bangladesh was born. The final victory was achieved through a nine-month-long armed War of Independence. I recall with deep respect the millions of martyrs who sacrificed their lives in the liberation War.

Consequently, relationships and social networks are being formed that are politically homogeneous. If one has friends across the political aisle, they often avoid discussing political or social issues to maintain the relationship.

As COP falters, South Asia must build its own collaborative climate platform
In this moment of reckoning, we, parliamentarians from some of the world's most climatevulnerable South Asian countries, put forward the idea of regional climate multilateralism as a concrete response to that call. We see this as a model grounded in solidarity and justice but animated by the urgency that COP30 has made impossible to ignore. Such a framework must enable South Asian nations to pool scale, resources, knowledge, and diverse climate needs, while sharing technological and financial capacities in sectors where transformation cannot wait.
