Everything ok
This is just a short notice saying that everything is allright in Bangladesh and yesterday's bombings didn't much affect me or AIESEC people here. I myself heard during lunchtime that about 11.00 am bombs were blasting in half of the districts in Bangladesh. But people were not too concerned and saw it as just an attempt by somebody to create panic. Some hours later another serie of bomb blasts took place all over the country. The estimations about the number of explosions vary from more than 100 to more than 300. The fact is that only one district out of 64 has not reported about any bombs. Luckily the bombs were small and home-made and therefor did not cause major damages.
We closed the office at 4.30 and everybody went home just in case. But today it's normal day like any other. We are at work as usual, people are out at streets etc. There is an hartal expected to happen on Saturday, but hopefully nothing too serious happening.
The worst feeling for me is knowing that some people out there may be really worried after seeing the news. Even my dad called me up from US today morning, which was of course very lovely but made me feel concerned about my parents! So hugs to everybody and thanks for the concerns! And no need for worries!
