This supplement contains summary of the discussions. The names and identities of the participants are published below. Due to constraint of space we are not able to publish the comments of all the participants. -- Editor Deabapriya Bhattachrya In the preparation of its “vision” document Nagorik Committee will work from three premises. First, people's aspirations: the committee will try to focus on people's perception of Bangladesh that they wish to see in simple words. Second: we will try to discuss the factors that should be added to the political process of socio-economic order to achieve the aspirations of the people. Thus, when a clearer picture emerges, we shall try to put forward before the government a program of implementation as to what should be accomplished in the first 100 days, then in three months and, finally, in a full year. Subsequently, we shall present the document to the political parties, and the politicians, for inclusion of the points in their respective manifestoes. Each political party shall prepare its own manifesto. We, on our part, hope to prepare a national manifesto based on your recommendations.
