Dr. Yunus’ Legacy Must be Protected

It has to be done. Not by some individuals but by all Bangladeshis collectively. Dr. Yunus’ establishments of lifting poverty and empowering women are in need of a future leadership. We don’t know who will follow his footsteps. Now do we know if there is someone to ever replace him once he retires. We cannot simply allow his legacy to succumb to the ill effects of greed and corruption that mire great many of those who question Dr. Yunus’ work and, perhaps, many of those who even work him. One reason is the money. People may be after his work and legacy because they cannot escape from the wrath of their temptations of greed. Corruption and greed have been built into our system and there are much larger causes and issues behind my claim. One critical reason is ignorance, not necessarily literal but moral ignorance. I wonder how many of those who question Dr. Yunus' work really understand what he does and stands for. His legacy and work cannot be protected by one or two but by all of us collectively raising our moral conscience and values that trigger us to do great many things.
