Editorial
Eid Mubarak
Ramadan is gradually coming to a close and Eid awaits us at the end. What a wonderful festival to celebrate a month of fasting, self-control, prayer and penance!
Eid is undoubtedly a happy occasion and we want to celebrate with all the joy and happiness in the world. However, living in Bangladesh we cannot help but be affected by those less unfortunate we see all around us. Eid is a time for giving and let us give from our heart, not just our pockets. Let us give wisely, helping as many people as we can in the best way possible.
