Communicating and accessing problems for disabled persons
Friday, 25 September 2009
BANGLADESH has a building code with convenient options for people together with inhabitants with disabilities. Yet, once more loopholes in the arrangement, the deficiencies in correct monitoring, and absence of a penalization system could not lead to beginning openness for the people with disabilities.
Municipal and personal offices, efficacy communications, recreation and traveller spots, learning institutions, public carriages, and bazaar spaces roughly all are hard to find, for the people with disabilities. Whatsoever, consciousness has to be raised on convenience of the disabled with facilities and more often than not for steering wheel-chair users.
Convenience of people with visual and earshot and talking disabilities are still not credibly well implicit. As such, the country sees some sluggish development in the ICT sector; options for visually impaired people are missing. Symbol ropes are also not generally obtainable.
The state-run television network has introduced a weekly news round up with the sign support on an experimental basis to help the deaf and it will soon be introduced in the national news bulletins. The government must perform quickly to create separate ticket counters and to ensure reserved seats for the disabled persons in public transports.
