Kuakata fishermen need lighthouse
Iftekhar Sayeed, Dhanmandi, Dhaka
I sailed out with a few fishermen into the Bay, and they said that a lighthouse would make a great deal of difference. Indeed, as evening came down around us, I could imagine what it would be like with a storm darkening the horizon. I'm sure installing one lighthouse would save many a life.I wonder how many lighthouses there are along the Bay. The people of the entire region depend heavily on fishing for their livelihood. We should try to make an inherently hazardous occupation less unsafe than what it is now.
