Problems of city mayors
A Mawaz, Dhaka
It was amusing to read the interview of DCC mayor in the DS supplement on Cities (10/2/06).Governing the over-grown cities has became a severe management and administrative problem. Powerful, honest, and strict mayors are not enough. The laws and rules have to be changed and modernised. The various systems losses in any city corporation are very high due to many reasons, which is an open secret. But officially no reforms are being undertaken, after proper feasibility studies. There are several such studies in the archives of the secretariat. Only politically motivated projects get priority. Let the people decide how to "reward" our "noisy" politicians.
