Reforming Dhaka's bus service

The Daily Star on May 12 published a letter titled “Bring buses under one banner” by Serajul Islam. I'd like to lend my support to the idea, which was a brainchild of Annisul Huq, the former mayor of Dhaka North. 

In no country in the world is the public bus system in such a shambles. The authorities should take steps to bring all buses—except of course unfit ones—under a single entity like the Greyhound in the United States.  

It will reduce congestion, and the unhealthy competition on the road, and thus, the risk of accident. If any accident happens, it will be easier to hold a single company to account.
