- Aug 25, 2007: Dhaka streets buzz as curfew eases.
Streets and markets were bustling Saturday as the government suspended the curfew for 17 hours to 11 pm. Traffic and usual chaos returned to the streets but there was no sign of protest that swept the city of 10 million people a few days ago, prompting the government to enforce the curfew. It seems that the violence has been quelled.
The poor bear the brunt.
Days of curfew have taken its toll on the people who live by the day. A number of day labourers, hawkers, tea vendors and rickshaw pullers were upset since they were being forced to stay indoors without no income, no savings.
Aug 24, 2007: Life was slowly getting back to normal in capital Dhaka and five other divisional cities after the government relaxed the curfew from 8am to 10pm for Friday. The Dhaka residents flocked to the kitchen markets to stock up on essentials in the morning. Day labourers hit the streets to desperately look for work. The state-run television station BTV in a morning news bulletin broke the news of curfew easing quoting a notice from police authorities.
