It was to be a busy day. Tomorrow is the meeting of our construction advisory committee. Many renowned architects and engineers of the country are members of this committee. We are fortunate to have them all together.
Among them was the well-respected Professor Jamilur Reza Choudhury. He was the chairman of the committee. He scrutinised all the documents of the meeting, a lifelong habit for him; there was no way to avoid the details.
Yesterday, he called Ashraf (Ashraful Hasan), who is the central figure in all our construction projects, to get some more explanations regarding the documents.
