We should proud to be Bangladeshi.

[Flynn Swagmire]

We all Bangladeshi have many things to be proud but, this time I will share a new thing (you might know already).

In English

In December 2002, Sierra Leone’s President Ahmad Tejan Kabbah also named Bengali as an "official language" in recognition of the work of troops from Bangladesh in the United Nations Mission in Sierra Leone peacekeeping force.

Bengali language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Bangla

আফ্রিকার একটি দেশ "Republic of Sierra Leone " এর অফিসিয়াল ভাষা "বাংলা"

অবাক লাগার মতই কথা .... ডিসেম্বর ২০০২ এ Republic of Sierra Leone এর প্রেসিডেন্ট "আহমাদ তেজান কাব্বাহ" তার দেশের গৃহ যুদ্ধ বন্ধ এবং যুদ্ধ পরবর্তী সময়ে অবকাঠামো গত উন্নয়নে বাংলাদেশ সেনাবাহিনীর অসীম অবদানের জন্য কৃতজ্ঞতা সরূপ বাংলা ভাষা কে তাদের অফিসিয়াল ভাষা হিসেবে ঘোষণা করেন .....

শুধু ঘোষণায়ই নয় । সেই দেশে বাংলার ব্যাবহার অবাক করার মত ...

কি গর্ব হয় না নিজেদের নিয়ে...?

If you know some new facts please share.
