11733938.Pdf PREFACE In response to a request from the Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh, the Government of Japan decided to conduct a basic design study on the Project for the Construction of Multipurpose Cyclone Shelters (V) in the People’s Republic of Bangladesh and entrusted the study to the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). JICA sent to Bangladesh a study team from March 8 to April 19, 2003. The team held discussions with the officials concerned of the Government of Bangladesh, and conducted a field study at the study area. After the team returned to Japan, further studies were made. Then, a mission was sent to Bangladesh in order to discuss a draft basic design, and as this result, the present report was finalized. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of the project and to the enhancement of friendly relations between our two countries. I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials concerned of the Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh for their close cooperation extended to the teams. August, 2003 Takao Kawakami President Japan International Cooperation Agency August, 2003 LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL We are pleased to submit to you the basic design study report on the Project for the Construction of Multipurpose Cyclone Shelters (V) in the People’s Republic of Bangladesh.

national land of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh (hereinafter referred to as “Bangladesh”) consists of the world’s largest delta formed by such great rivers as the Ganges, the Bramaputra and Megna River and this gigantic delta is mostly lowland with an elevation of 10 m or less. Given this geographical condition, floods and cyclones are the two most damaging natural disasters in the country. Many human lives, animals and property have been lost, particularly in the mainly coastal High Risk Area (HRA), due to storm surge caused by cyclones. For example, 300,000 and 140,000 people lost their lives

    THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.

While magnesium should be present in nutritionally important quantities in regular 30 January 2014 Accepted: 31 January 2014 diets, average Bangladeshi diets frequently fail to contain an adequate supply of the element. Thus, the study aims to determine the amount of magnesium in four different dietary items, Keywords bananas, vegetables and pulses, locally available in Chittagong, Bangladesh, using Spectro- photometric method. As per the findings, the magnesium concentration for banana contrasts Magnesium Arum between 0.843 µg/g and 3.654µg/g. Musa cavendishii from Satkania Upazila contains the Banana highest value while, the lowest amount is found in Musa paradisiaca from Lama Upazila. For Vegetable and Pulse arums, the amount varies between 0.476 and 21.3456µg/g. The highest amount was found in arums, Colocasia esculenta (Patiya upazila) i.e. 21.3456µg/g and the lowest amount appears from the same species at Boailkhali upazila. In vegetables, the quantity fluctuates between 1.62 and 5.93 µg/g with the maximum amount found in Anowara upazila. Magnesium in pulses was observed in the range 6.5333-28.3208 µg/g.
