I can think of many good young writers from this blog — Amer, Sufibaba, Anthony, lazourous, So, Zeeshan, fz, Moin et al … roll up your sleeves and put your thoughts down in writing. How do you think they will verify the age? :)

Like every year The Daily Star will bring out a special supplement on our Independence Day, the 26th of March 2007. The theme of the supplement is: “State of our politics: Views of the young generation.”
The Daily Star invites young professionals between the age of 25 and 40 to contribute on the above theme from the point of view of its impact on our economy, administration, rule of law, work ethics, personal behaviour, professional excellence, etc.
The articles must draw reference to the current political crisis and ways of overcoming it. The length of the articles should not be more than 1,000 words and addressed to: editor@thedailystar.net.
Last date of submission March 10, 2007
