Also check out the vision that Prof. Yunus laid out in a recent speech:

Prof Yunus steps up
Zafar Sobhan
Dhaka is still buzzing over the keynote speech Prof Yunus gave on February 4 at The Daily Star’s 15th anniversary celebrations.
Speeches at functions like these tend to be fairly prosaic, and one does not expect to be inspired and uplifted, so no one was really expecting Prof Yunus to electrify the audience with a barn-burner of an oration.
But that is precisely what the 2000 plus who were present were treated to, and apart from adding excitement to the event, the speech set forth an inspiring blueprint for how the long-suffering people of this country can retake control of our political destiny.
Prof Yunus’s speech was equal parts visionary political philosophy and equal parts a call to arms to the citizens of the country to take back the democratic process.
It was the kind of speech that renewed your hope in the political process and made you think that the resolution of our political problems in this country, and by extension all the other troubles that we are faced with, is within our grasp as a nation.
