V FOREWARD Ninth year into our ongoing quest for better understanding of defence and security, the National Defence College, Bangladesh is constantly striving to offer a pragmatic and time-befitting academic curricula to the potential policy planners, leaders and strategic thinkers of the future. In the ever changing perspective of its internal and external dynamics, Bangladesh has to constantly adjust and align its policy perceptions to keep up with the globalized world yet meeting the challenges of a developing small state within the South Asian geo-political reality. I firmly believe that our endeavor to constantly review , analyse and assess our security dy- namics and search for viable strategy options will contribute to securing our nation and its citizens positively. We clearly see a reflection of that as we notice that the alumni of the College have already begun to make the difference in their respective fields. In this contemporary era defence and security is a broad and comprehensive concept. It is no more only traditional security although it is an important pillar of it. It is state, human, environment and trans-state security in one whole. Therefore, insularity within a nation’s geo-political boundary and military power alone can no longer make a state secure. External and international imperatives are too obvious and interlinked and their implications are bound to affect the state, be it large or small, weak or strong. Environmental degradation, syndicated crimes, terrorism and radicalism, for example, are issues which obviously have global linkages and therefore can no longer be addressed alone by individual states. Most issues need a concerted understanding by all in the international community and states need to devise their policies and strategies to address these in line with the global policy and strategic framework complimenting each other. The National Defence College over the years has been promoting this concept and to that end encouraging free flow of diverse opinions and sharing of ideas through international exposure and international participation. As of the year 2006 officers, from ten overseas countries shared a common roof here in the college with their Bangladeshi peers from the military and the civil service to freely exchange ideas and views to make tomorrow’s world a better place to live. I am happy to note the publication of the 6th issue of NDC journal bears the testimony of our contemporary thinking and attitude. A number of selected research works of the course members of both National Defence Course and Armed Forces War Course of diverse subject and merit have been accommodated here. As usual the articles have been condensed from the originals in the interest of space management. Yet abridgement of the article will not deprive the avid readers of thcir merit and brilliance. I congratulate the course members and the guest contributor for contributing to the Journal. I also compliment the Editorial Board for editing and publishing the Journal on time. I wish that our alumni and the readers find this journal useful in consolidating their conviction of attaining ‘Security through Knowledge’ and evok- ing greater understanding and interest of the gamut of defence and security.

They represent the intelligence with which we clothe our consciousness and empirical investigation of the phenomena in subtle and sensitive analysis. Power of ideas carries far beyond the individual creation of subjective cognitive frontier. Their accomplishment lies in their collective share of under- standing and intellectual empathy. As every age is Captured in the images of ideas that control the particular moments of time, so is every scholastic institution portrayed by unbridling the thoughts in creative work by its scholars. Excellence of thoughts can only come through a process, which is both sublime and arduous. The passion of thought is to seek the pedestal of idealistic truth.
