Nobel Laureate, Rabindranath Tagore suggested that, “The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.” Being the prolific writer he was, Tagore is not just an admirable human being, but also a beacon of heritage within Bengal.
Knowledge is no longer a commodity but a necessary tool for progress as any maturing nation evolves from the industrial economies to knowledge economies. The world is now demanding hired heads because analytic-skills and expertise is the new artisan. To set forth with our anniversary issue, ICE Business Times has focused on the power of knowledge in the grueling search for innovation.
In times of trials and tribulations, the necessity for self-reflection in order to advance as a society is essential. In that lieu, Bangladesh has successfully established itself as a booming entity in the RMG sector and immerses itself in the state-of-the-art technology in order to create smarter investments.
On that note, we must do our utmost for a better Bangladesh. This initiative begins with improving infrastructure and ensuring the prosperity of social and economic enterprises. With renewed vigor, we pave the road to an efficient food-water-energy nexus to diminish the downbeat impact of climate changes. These endeavors can only see the light of day in its full potential when there remains no trace of corruption and beauracracy. Only then will there be a renewed faith for the advancement of the nation. Making smart decisions towards a progressive mindset is the foundation towards sustainable development. Despite what may come, let us not steer away from the words of Tagore. We are a nation of untapped potential and the time for drawing from that intellect is now.
