  • Odhikar's Fact Finding Report/5 and 6 May 2013/Hefazate Islam, Motijheel
    Odhikar’s Fact Finding Report/5 and 6 May 2013/Hefazate Islam, Motijheel/Page-1 Summary of the incident Hefazate Islam Bangladesh, like any other non-political social and cultural organisation, claims to be a people’s platform to articulate the concerns of religious issues. According to the organisation, its aims are to take into consideration socio-economic, cultural, religious and political matters that affect values and practices of Islam. Moreover, protecting the rights of the Muslim people and promoting social dialogue to dispel prejudices that affect community harmony and relations are also their objectives. Instigated by some bloggers and activists that mobilised at the Shahbag movement, the organisation, since 19th February 2013, has been protesting against the vulgar, humiliating, insulting and provocative remarks in the social media sites and blogs against Islam, Allah and his Prophet Hazrat Mohammad (pbuh). In some cases the Prophet was portrayed as a pornographic character, which infuriated the people of all walks of life. There was a directive from the High Court to the government to take measures to prevent such blogs and defamatory comments, that not only provoke religious intolerance but jeopardise public order. This is an obligation of the government under Article 39 of the Constitution. Unfortunately the Government took no action on this. As a response to the Government’s inactions and its tacit support to the bloggers, Hefazate Islam came up with an elaborate 13 point demand and assembled peacefully to articulate their cause on 6th April 2013. Since then they have organised a series of meetings in different districts, peacefully and without any violence, despite provocations from the law enforcement agencies and armed Awami League activists.

Officials said customs wing of the National Board of Revenue (NBR) recently issued the policy with the comprehensive guidelines with some 36 conditions binding private IWCT ventures. They said the policy was framed under 'The Customs Act 1969, section 12 and section 219 (B)'. Link: http://print.thefinancialexpress-bd.com/2016/02/15/134118 Financial management strategy in the offing A new public financial management strategy is in the final stages of making as attaining fiscal discipline and its transparency now comes into government policy focus. Officials said the strategies in vogue do not fit in government planning and priorities, leading to delay in execution of projects. The one now in the making is expected to help synchronise government planning, execution of budget and modern accounting to avoid abuse of public money. The finance division has already prepared the draft. It also organised a two- day national seminar in Habiganj that ended on February 13.

Classic event study methodology was used to analyze the data. It was found that in 2006, 2007 and 2009 market has reacted over the announcement in the event date. Some sectors like Food & Auxiliary, Fuel and Miscellaneous have impacted the market both in the event and post event date across the years considered. All the efforts were given to discover reaction therefore the underlying reasoning of such impact are set aside. Keywords: Cash dividend, Dhaka stock exchange, Event study, Announcement effect 1. Introduction Securities, to be more specific stocks are not traded in a vacuum, rather amidst the complex interaction of many variables – some explainable and some not manageable. Thousands, perhaps even more variables can exert influence over stock price and dividend isthe prime variable.

  • The Role of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited in Economic Development of Bangladesh
    ISSN: 2308-5096(P) ISSN 2311-620X (O) [International Journal of Ethics in Social Sciences Vol.4, No. 1, June 2016] The Role of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited in Economic Development of Bangladesh Mohammed Mahbubur Rahaman1 Md. Rafiqul Islam Rafiq2 Abstract The main objective of the study is to analyze the role of IBBL in economic development of Bangladesh and to give some suggestions to overcome the challenges Islami Bank Bangladesh Ltd. (IBBL) is the pioneer of Islamic banking in Bangladesh. IBBL is performing a significant role in the development of the country. The Bank is working in the export sector from the very beginning resulting in maximizing export earnings as well as creating employment opportunities in Bangladesh. The Bank has already emerged as the top export-import bank in Bangladesh. IBBL satisfies most of the efficiency conditions if they can operate as a sole system in an economy. Conventional banking, on the other hand, does not satisfy any of the efficiency conditions analyzed in the present study. However, when Islamic banks start operation within the conventional banking framework, their efficiency goes on decreasing in a number of dimensions. 1. Introduction In a modern economy, banks are the fundamental financial intermediary. Recently they are engaged in value generating activities by assuring uninterrupted supply of financial resources and also help accelerate the pace of development process. In terms of deposit collection, investment, and foreign exchange business the Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited (IBBL) place the position of being the leading other banks, IBBL has been continuously operating their banking activities and to provide efficient banking service with a view to accelerate 1.

  • Bangladesh: Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors
    Bangladesh Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors Over the last 2 decades, Bangladesh has made progress in women’s participation in the labor force, gender parity in primary education, and women’s political representation. Areas of concern include the high prevalence of violence against women, obstacles to women’s access to resources and assets, unequal terms of their labor engagement, and impact of their overwhelming responsibility for care work. The Government of Bangladesh has made policy commitments toward gender equality and established an institutional framework to fulfill these. This publication intends to support the government in its attempt to address persisting gender inequalities and gaps through a multisector approach across policies, programs, and projects. It provides insights into gender issues in urban; transport; energy; and skills, vocational, and tertiary education, and gives suggestions for strengthening gender mainstreaming in projects.
