Unemployment Problem
Unemployment problem is one of the greatest problems of Bangladesh and so many educated and skilled people have to live in utter poverty. There was a time when there was no unemployment problem but with the increase of population unemployment problem has emerged. Earlier, most of the people of our country were employed in agriculture and small industry but during the reign of the English colonialists the backbones of these industries broke down. With the advent of machines in small industry sectors, job opportunities decreased dramatically. Nowadays most of the machinery has been made automated, which are serving as substitutes for thousands of people. This has created unemployment problem on a great scale. Industrialization has not developed largely in our country so employment opportunities have not increased. Besides, very few people of our country are skilled and equipped with the necessary knowledge and techniques. There are many other reasons of unemployment problem but however acute the unemployment problem is, it is not we can tackle this problem by taking some measures. A drastic change has to be brought about in the present educational system. The establishment of small industry has to be encouraged. Government should take initiative to industrialize the country and have to establish vocational training centers.
Flood in Bangladesh
Flood is one of the worst devastating natural calamities. The rise of water is called flood. Our country almost every year faces this natural calamity which causes untold miseries for the people. There are many reasons which cause flood in this country. Excessive and continuous rain for days together, lack of proper drainage, river siltation etc. are the causes of flood. Flood causes heavy havocs of our assets and properties. Fields after fields, streets, roads and houses go under water. Crops are destroyed. It also washes away our cattle and even our lives. It damages our communication totally. During flood it is very difficult to move from one place to another. During flood our people from different walks of life came forward to help the flood victims. Different non-government organizations, humanitarian and voluntary organizations came forward with clothes, medicine, drinking water, dry food and many other daily necessaries to save the flood victims. After the recession of flood water, people have to suffer a lot. The scarcity of food becomes then acute. Homeless people have to wait for a long time to be rehabilitated. Various kinds of diseases like cholera, typhoid and dysentery break out in an epidemic form. The victims had to live in unhealthy and unclean shelter. Above all, the days after flood become a nightmare for the victims. Firstly, we have to excavate our silted bed of rivers so that they can carry excessive flow of water. Secondly, the drainage system should be developed. Thirdly, the coastal areas and river sides brought under forestation.
