"Who knows, it may work - let me give it a try. If I fail, it's ok. But I have to try."
Muhammad Yunus

[ozgursaygl]

He has the ability to see the capitalism for what it is and reverses its rules to benefit the poor. Such a vision, determination, creativity and humanity. The more I listen to him the more I respect him. Truly genious and a hero.

[dr.tanushreegupta]

I meet Dr Yunus during my ph.D and it was wonderful meeting him

[shameemahmedshad]

Is there any Bangladeshi who is seeing this video now after he's been selected the prime minister of interim government?I hope the more Bengali people will see him, the more they will love and respect their new leader.

[jahedulsameer]

2 years ago, I made a comment here saying we people couldn't evaluate and give him respect.

Today, he is now the new supreme leader of our country appointed by the citizens.

Congratulations sir 💙

It is a matter of sorrow that Bangladesh couldn’t honour you perfectly. But now (August, 2024) is the time to show your excellence in Bangladesh. We are eagerly waiting.

[janesantos]

We started our microfinance company in the Philippines, its just a small one, but its amazing, because even if there is pandemic or covid 19 we are still able to run it smoothly, why? Because we are a group of officers from different type of microfinance who work together and brought our members from different microfinance and it works😍😍😍😍 we have 83 centers now with 500 members going stronger. Wish us luck.

[Mirsumon]

We, Bangladeshi People, are proud of Dr. Yunus.

My dad did this similar scheme to Mr Yunuch to help small fisherfolks people in a southern province of thailand
Who banks do not grant them loan
to have access to small loan
at low interests in form of coop group.
Mr Yunuch gained lots of respect
I am congratulating him
And his people are blessed for his pioneer

[anng.]

One of the greatest man. I always go back to this video from time to time just to be reminded on how people can actually make impact to the world.

[midnightgospel]

Some people are so gifted they make it seem so easy to change the world upside down, and still retain humble behavior and jolly good humor. Incredible to think he has been given the same prize as Kissinger, what a world
