  • Corporate Sustainability Reporting by Pharmaceutical Companies: Is It What It Seems to Be?
    Corporate Ownership & Control / Volume 11, Issue 1, 2013, Continued - 8 CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING BY PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES: IS IT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE? Mohammad Istiaq Azim*, Saiful Azam** Abstract A well-functioning pharmaceutical industry can contribute directly to social wellbeing. Corporate sustainability is an important precondition for the further development and growth of the industry. In this research multi methods are used to provide a complete, holistic and contextual portrait of the level of CSR by pharmaceutical companies in a developing country - Bangladesh. Firstly, we used content analysis to investigate corporate social reporting by listed pharmaceutical companies. Secondly, we conducted surveys to document management responses. Thirdly, we sought stakeholders' views on the extent to which they believe CSR is being implemented in the industry. Analysis of annual reports published in 2009- 2010 shows that only 26.67% of listed pharmaceutical companies made some CSR disclosure. However, more than seventy-five per cent of these disclosures are sweeping qualitative statements without any attempt at quantification. Most managers believe social reporting should strike a balance between meeting stakeholders' reasonable expectations and running a successful business. The majority of stakeholders appear to favour mandatory requirements for CSR disclosure.

  • (Retrd.) Saiful Azam, the Defender of Jerusalem, Clearly Reflects
    Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Bangladesh th Ref: 1441 / 18 Thursday, 27 Shawwal 1441 AH 18/06/2020 CE Press Release Hasina Government’s Silence over the Demise of Group Captain (retd.) Saiful Azam, the Defender of Jerusalem, clearly reflects its Allegiance towards the Enemies of Islam Only under the Shade of the Khilafah (Caliphate) Lies the Dignity and Honor of the True Heroes The news of the death of the legendary fighter pilot of Bangladesh, Group Captain (retd.) Saiful Azam, who passed away in silence at Dhaka on Sunday afternoon, has stirred the deepest emotions of the Ummah in Bangladesh and across the Muslim world. And the emotional toll on people for this loss was in fact very high when they came to know the bravery and unmatchable achievement of this ‘unsung hero’ against the enemies of Islam - the illegitimate Jewish entity and Indian Mushrik State. Apart from his being the only fighter pilot who fought for four countries (Jordan, Iraq Pakistan, and Bangladesh) at war, this war hero captured Muslims’ hearts for his courageous role in attacking air force bases and destroying superior fighter planes of the enemies - India and the Jewish entity 'Israel'. To date, he remains the one to have downed the highest number of enemy fighters, the only one to have downed four enemy aircrafts during the 1967 Six-Day War against the illegitimate Jewish entity. Also, he shot down an Indian Air Force Gnat interceptor during the 1965 war with India after returning from a successful ground attack on an Indian airbase.
