Item Developing a Management Point of View: Case of Education Sector Problems in a Developing country(CIU Journal, 2023-12-01) Moslehuddin Chowdhury KhaledThis is a case study in the domain of public sector management or management in government, with particular reference to education as a sector as a whole. Bangladesh has shown persistent upward trends in development indicators during the last four decades. In the education sector also, essential quantity indicators like literacy, the female proportion of literacy, number of educational institutions, increased and improved, at all levels - primary, secondary, tertiary, and technical. But qualitative improvement remained mysteriously low, despite government intention to increase quality of teaching, learning, and administration. This paper aimed to draw an overall picture of the prevalent scenario of the education sector. Analyzing secondary sources like public media, and primary sources like citizen interactions, this qualitative study consolidated the problems of the education sector in a coherent whole. Contrary to overstated budget problems, the paper argues that many problems of the education sector are not budget problems. Rather purely and simply 'management' problems, and so, can effectively be solved with basic but thorough understanding of the basic technicalities of management as a discipline.Item From Outdated to Effective: Revamping Bangladesh's Bankruptcy Law to Support Economic Stability and Growth(CIU Journal, 2023-12-01) Sayeed Hasan, Mohammad Nayeem Abdullah and Md. Iqbal HossainBangladesh, known globally as a low-cost garment manufacturing hub, is transitioning from a Least Developed Country to a "Developing Country" status. To sustain and accelerate this growth, the country is aggressively seeking Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and pursuing various ambitious mega-projects. However, a critical area that requires attention is its bankruptcy law, which plays a crucial role in corporate governance and enterprise development. The existing Bankruptcy Act 1997 is outdated and ineffective, necessitating urgent reform. This study identifies the deficiencies in the current law and proposes updates to align it with international standards, particularly the UNCITRAL Model Law* which includes provisions for cross-border insolvency. A unified legal framework for addressing non-performing loans is also recommended.
