I am Abbas. Graduated with International Relations from one of the the largest university in Bangladesh. My birth is not an happy birth like most of you here. I do not know who my parents are, i don't know my birth place. I learned that i am an orphan. I have no birth date. I have no parents. My address was an orphanage at the end of Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh.
Bangladesh, an old, over populated but beautiful county of south asia. I grew up with many of my orphan friends here. Bangladesh has a bloody 9 months struggle of liberation. More than 3 million people give their life to liberate this small country. I will go through the story later.
Bangladesh may be a poor country, but in my understanding still it provides a lot scope of education now. Otherwish from a poor remote orphanage it would have been impossible for me to be graduate.
What i can say in small words that, it is peoples love that i can carried out my study. Some you may surprise that it is a big issue in our country Bangladesh to study in a university. It is very hard to get chance in a free public university. But luck was my side. I got chance to study my favorite subject in a prestigious university here.
There are many stories in my life that might inspire many people here. There was time i passed my day without eating, Some time once a day.
I will try to shear thouse story to all of you guys.
When I started my university, i left my beloved orphans and moved to university dormitory. Eventually I got a laptop as a reward for an essay contest. My writing career start from that point. For your information i write in the local language Bangla, my English may be little weak. I am apologizing in advance.
I got interest in reading since childhood. Although my capacity was low, however my good friends were there, i borrow books from my friends, from public libraries.
I wish to be the author from my school life. I dreamed to see my name published in newspaper. Luck was in my side again. When I was in university, I started student journalism for 3 newspaper. Suddenly my life got a path. Now it is my full-time profession. My loving profession.
I worked for many leading online newspaper of my country. For last 5 years I saw many things. I am learning everyday.
In my opinion, one of the great acts of journalists is to deeply monitor. I started to see people around me with a new eyes. I started writing blogs. Every life has story, my mission is to keep that story alive. Some of my story are printed, most of are unprinted. I want to tell those stories here.
Most of you may know, recently about 1 million Rohingya refugees escaped from myanmar to Bangladesh to save their lives. A few days ago I was assigned from my magazine to visit rohingya camps. There were many stories i hear, that are unimaginable. Story of the camps, story of their escape from myanmar, story of brutal killing, stories of International NGOs. Their fooding, clothing, their hospitals. I got plenty of inspirational stories inside the camp.
I did 27 interviews in a couple of weeks, 3 were published in the newspaper. We got many rules in this country. News can not be made against the government. For this reason most of my experiences were untold. I want to shear those stories with all of you.

I visited India various times, I visited my own county Bangladesh whenever i got time, I passed days in roads and streets.
Why I come here to write?
I heard that this platform provide good amount of money to passionate and authentic writers. I have a job here. Which pays me not so big amount nor less. I am fine with my rental two rooms apartment in Bangladesh's capital.
Some may not even believe, but if i can able to earn a good money from here, I will build an orphanage for many orphans like me who living in my Country.
your interest,
your love,
your belief
may create something new …
may create something new ...
