A Call to Wage a World-Wide Militant Protest Movement against IMF/WB

I’m Mushrefa Mishu, convenor of ‘Revolutionary Unity Front’ and president of ‘Garments Workers Unity forum’ (Bangladesh), call to all oppressed male and female - wage a mass militant ovement against Imperialists’ IMF/WB, the greatest enemy of world people.

I would like to utter very apparently - these IMF and WB are responsible for reducing most of the people of the world to live below poverty line. These two institutions are responsible for the extensive environment pollution of the world, unemployment of the innumerable youths of the whole world, termination of millions of workers in different countries across the world. Our
lands are getting infertile and sterile day by day, millions of children are dying from malnutrition and wanting foods. For causing various types of noticeable exploitation and disparity against women, IMF/WB are extremely responsible. In a word, IMF/WB are recognised enemies of all oppressed men and women of the world.

All of you know, Bangladesh is an underdeveloped country. All developed countries today turned into industrialised states through extensive industrialised . But the regretful matter is, IMF/WB pressurise our Government repeatedly not to build up industries. Thousands of industries
have been laid off due to the anti-people policy of IMF/WB. Millions of workers are being sacked regularly. The route to industrialisation of our country came into a halt for the IMF/WB anti mass policies. These two institutions are imposing on our country an anti-environmental agri-policy.
Besides, for a flood control project name as ‘Flood Action Plan’ and various types of anti-environment disasters are taking place in our country. A number of 15 thousand varieties of delicious rice cultivation have been exterminated for ever as for the different anti-environment project and agri-policies of IMF/WB. Our lands are getting sterile day by day. Though Bangladesh is mainly a river-rhine country. A huge variety of fishes, flora and fauna is on the verge of extinction for the huge environment pollution. Poisonous lead (Pb) is found in the blood of our children for this environment pollution. As a result, our children are being attacked by the multiple diseases including Asthma. IMF/WB are imposing on our women a birth control / contraceptive
planning which is very hazardous to their health. As a result, many women are becoming sterile forever. Uteruses of many women are getting inoperative for being attacked by various types of disease. So we don’t feel any problem to understand that IMF/WB are also anti-women. For IMF/WB policy, at present, 150 million youths both male and female are totally unemployed.
These two institutions interfere in our sectors of education, agriculture, health, transportation and all other development sectors. Even they directly interfere while making our national budget. Since the decade of the 80’s, mineral resources Oil and Gas are being started to be explored here. Now IMF/WB are imposing a force on us to lease out the Gas and Oil fields including seaport to the multinational companies. In this way, by protecting the interest of multinational companies they are pushing our countries from poor to poorer condition. Even they are trumping our national independence and sovereignty through bossing and meddling in our internal affairs including politics. So IMF/WB are our recognised enemies. It is known to me, what picture of IMF/WB’s aggression I portrayed here, is true for the most of all countries. So I think, the principal task of all suppressed male and female of the world is to make an all out mass militant against these killers and aggressive forces.

We know PGA has already declared the 26th September as a ‘Global Day of Action’ during the Annual General Meeting of the IMF/WB in Prague. Our organisation RUF and our six mass organisations have also chalked out together a lay seize program in the premises of WB country office in Dhaka and agitating procession and demonstration including mass rally with waving
black flags. We hope to be capable of waging a militant protest movement through participating the students, women, workers along with the people of all strata as well as progressive political parties, individuals and forces. I call upon all the oppressed male female of the world to make PGA- declared ‘Global Day of Action’ all out successful. Wage a militant protest movement against the IMF/WB locally in Prague and a mass militant protest movement against these recognised enemies and voloptuous in each country of the whole world. Let this century be down with WTO/IMF/WB and all other oppressors, and victory of all suppressed male-female of the world. Our victory is inevitable. Greetings to all my struggling friends of the world.

In solidarity
Mushrefa Mishu
