Finance Minister AMA Muhith on Thursday claimed Prof Amartya Sen told him that though Bangladesh had many big achievements those were not getting projected abroad because of Prof Muhammad Yunus.
Citing a recent meeting with Nobel laureate Amartya Sen, Muhith said, “Prof Sen told me that so many good works are being done in this country but those do not get highlighted anywhere in the world only because of Prof Yunus.”
On queries how an individual can do such a damage to a country, the finance minister said, “He has a wonderful publicity machinery.”
Muhith said this emerging from a review meeting on the Sixth Five-Year Plan at the auditorium of the National Economic Council (NEC) in the Planning ministry.
The finance minister also said, “There is no complete honesty in what he (Prof Yunus) says.”
Muhith also said Grameen Bank is his (Prof Yunus’s) organization. He does not want leave at in any way.
