Corruption global problem, not unique to BD, says Quader


FE REPORT
Road Transport and Bridges Minister and also Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader has said corruption is a way of life globally and not an issue exclusive to Bangladesh.
He came up with the remark during the inauguration of BRTC shuttle bus service at the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (HSIA) in the capital on Wednesday.
The minister said, "We aren't claiming that there is no corruption here. It isn't correct to say that only the government officials are corrupt and the politicians aren't."
"When we speak, we should first look at our reflections in the mirror. When I, as a politician, speak out against the corruption of bureaucrats, I must admit that corruption also exists in my sector. Isn't it there? Of course, there is."
