    1. Maybe Moeen is heading to Kuwait and Greece to promote his “Aloo” promtion.

    2. It would be a good idea for Moeen to check with the Kuwaitis to see if we could barter our bumper aloo production for their oil.

    3. How about selling aloo to feed members of the UN Peacekeeping force?

    maybe while he’s in kuwait the welfare of deshi manual workers will come up and he wont be a pansy. (hopes against hopes)

    Greece? but why?

  4. sotacit Says:

    Officially, in his capacity as Chairman of Bangladesh Olympic Committee.

    Unofficially, I have no idea.

  5. fugstar Says:

    learn about democracy?

  6. sotacit Says:

    Democracy? Aristocracy? Despotism? Take your pick, they’re all words with Greek roots.

  7. DS Says:

    I hear the Greek islands are great this time of year….

    I also hear it’s summer vacation for the general’s son.

  9. DS Says:

    the superest patriot from the most super-patriotic-disciplined institution in the land using an official visit as a ruse to see his son?

    unthinkable! you’re too cynical Jyoti bhai.

  10. sotacit Says:

    Indeed. On behalf of ISPR, let me clarify that General Moeen has personally gone to ensure the amount of potato in an Olympic athlete’s diet is increased.

    might be on tabligh

    nice of him to give it some dignity over there. really sad how our people have become synonymous with pimping and drugdealing in the kuwaiti imagination. also kuwait have created a good living fund wrt the price shocks.

    Apologies Tacit, but had to make good on a promise I made.

    Hmm…

    May be next he can visit Malaysia and tell the hundreds who que in front of the BD embassy in Ampang, KL to ‘behave and be good muslims’ to their under-paying and abusive (and more often chinese as opposed to muslim malay) lords.

    Someone I had met at the Embassy had once told me that there are hundreds of labors unaccounted for in Malaysia, probably because they’re illegal or because our Embassy is incompetent or because our systems are dysfunctional. I heard horror stories of rubber plantation owner treating BD labors like slave and sometimes just burying the dead ones in the plantations! How about we exchange potatoes for some respect in Malaysia? Vegetables are expensive in Kuala Lumpur!
