Someone offered to be a moderator, but I’d like to add more if I can. The call is still open

This happened 30 minutes ago and details may change rapidly over the next few hours. See the link above. I’m not in Bangladesh. I hear that people in the country are relieved, and cautiously optimistic.


Key points:

  • PM has resigned
  • local media reports she fled the country
  • protestors stormed her compound
  • interim government is being created

Statement by Chief of Army Staff

  • representatives from all major parties were present in discussions for interim government
  • army will begin investigations on all deaths and crimes during the protest. This should include the extrajudicial killings

Concerns

  • fear of violence against the supporters of the ruling party

Thank you, can you make a post or comment in the community so I can add you?

I see, we can focus on the community then and push for an instance if it becomes more appropriate in the future

Thanks for the help. I’m not currently in the country unfortunately. I spoke with someone who is self hosting in Bangladesh, and I will suggest an instance like that. I suppose that it is more difficult to set up a server in Bangladesh, so it is a long term goal. In the meantime, this can be a backup to the reddit one

I am curious too. It has been hard to get much information out between the internet shutdown, the language barrier, and the lack of press freedoms. I will post a link if I find anything!

Excellent answer!

Does someone have a good guide? The guides I find are a few years old. I will relay this to them in the meantime
