Mohammad Munir Chowdhury, Director General of the National Museum of Science and Technology, said, “The use of modern technology in exposing corruption in Bangladesh and in the international context is the need of the hour. Corruption does not just mean financial transactions. Prejudicial behavior, making decisions for personal gain, etc. are also equivalent to corruption. The government has tried to stop corruption through digital services instead of cash transactions. However, the success of technology depends on whether the person using the technology is honest and fair. Otherwise, corruption cannot be curbed by changing the system or using technology. The success of human life is to use the endless energy and thinking power that Allah has given to human beings for human welfare.
