The overseas workers, the remittances coming in, the voters' confidence that was in the IG, people identifying units as someone who could be trusted and therefore putting their money back in the formal channel was huge.
The R&D sector never missed a beat. I've had people from other countries in the region tell me Sri Lanka would never have survived a similar situation with that little. So a lot of things went right, particularly the macro management of the economy was very good.
I think, actually, things like the conviction of Alcina, politically genius, it's shocking that they managed to get that decision before they left. And the ICT is not a tribunal we recognize. It was not a free and fair trial, what have you. But she killed it. And they proved it. And they did it within their mandate.
Which was impressive. Eunice's management of the BMP, when the students failed to form a real party, was genius, his going to London and negotiating Tariq, was a level of political acumen that I can tell you for a fact, none of us at the time thought he had. There have been a number of times when we thought, with his stellar reputation intact. And those were the threats. He did not back down to the army, despite everything that's happened, he did not back down to the allies he did not back down to the parties He has people have criticized the way he handled the parties but he has said this is your problem this is your problem this is your problem you have to talk to each other Your parties are talking to each other Jermat and BMP have each other on those feedbacks.
That, the economy, some of the reforms they're putting in at the end, I mean, the whole management of the July Charter and this referendum, and we can criticize who's going to understand the referendum, blah, blah, blah. But that management of, so not the referendum is going to be on the day of the election, shut up. And DMP, it's going to be all the things you didn't agree to, shut up. Or y'all can walk away from this. And they didn't. So I think what we've identified is that there is a giant, invisible force of social cohesion, Bengals. Every time we thought things would spin off since August 5th, starting with August 5th, we evacuated on August 5th. We just had a meeting this morning where we talked about this. One month later, we were running back to Washington and saying, you know, everybody can come back. And they're like, you're crazy. That's not possible. And we had to explain to them that the Bengalsi society had risen up a second time and re-impose order spontaneously without the involvement of the government.
I don't think any of you guys give yourselves credit for what keeps happening. For the fact that it's not the parties, it's not the government, but the people and the parties in the government, they keep backing away from confrontation. So, which is why... I simply do not believe that Jamaat can impose Syria.
I was talking to somebody in the Catholic Church recently. Well if Jamal wins they going to nationalize Sacred Heart and all the conflict universities and they going to take them over and make them Islamic universities That it If Shabbat were to seize all the Catholic schools in Bangladesh, they would have 100% tariffs put on them the next day.
There is no way on earth that Catholic society in the United States would put up with that and allow Bangladesh to export things to the United States. So that's not a real thing. And while our government may not be the leader on this, I think there's this entire economy. 20% of your exports in the United States depend on a series of socially liberal clothing chains and clothing brands that play a huge role in the fact that your factories are some of the most modern and safest in the world that export. So, if Bangladesh told women they only owe $5 or kids to them out of R&D and opposed the Sharia law, there will be no more orders.
And if there are no more orders, there will be no Bangladesh economy. Jaman is not going to do that. Precisely, too many university educated, smart people have to do that.
We will make it seemingly clear to them what will happen. The Europeans will make it seemly clear to them.
One thing is that you're Saudi Arabia, and a different thing is that you're Bangladesh and you become Saudi Arabia. So, what I would encourage you, and what our position is with regard to Jemaat, if we're going to talk to Jemaat, we're going to talk to Hefizat, we're going to talk to Islamian medi, we want them to be our friends because we want to be able to pick up the phone and say I think you just said so here how that going to play out And because they're not stupid, they're not stupid, they're not crazy, that doesn't mean that we can protect everything and that something won't change. This is largely your fight, which is why it's somewhat about engaging with women on that side, And it's about trying to engage. As an incentive, it's hard. We engage. You also have conversations with people in the city. I'm just saying back off of the place I heard about your conversation.
We would like to break out. That reform is turnout. These guys, for people who won in Donkey University, can you talk to them?
Will they go on your show? We're just looking for ways to engage and talk to people. But the big ministry people are the ones who have decided to shift. If there's been a shift, if shifted, right, if shifted Islamic, if they don't, if that's not how the election turns out, great, then the only problem will be in peace during the set through introducing corruption by it.
But in all likelihood, Jamal is going to do better than he's ever done before. The leader is going to be far.
But I don't think it's a full-blown panic is helpful. Because there are guardrails. There is only so far that you don't do it. That's where you're going to call me almost entirely dependent on what else.
If you sold everything to China, you'd be big trouble. Because they could carry less what they would do. But you don't sell it in the United States of New York. And even for our government doesn't care, our consumers and our companies do, we care about their reputation and care about these things.
