Who don’t want to be a millionaire? I think, everybody wants, but somebody says, most don’t say openly, as they feel it is impossible. I believe, the person who has good mind and intention can be easily ; but precondition working for others with total devotion, creativity and love. I was surprised to here about the story of world millionaires. In Fuji TV discussion program, Global ICT entrepreneur Bill Gates took place first place. The presenter explains mathematically, Bill Gates has such amount yen in which volume is equal to 8 Fuji Mountain; which can cover the whole area of Tokyo city.
To be Millionaire is not only our desire, but also the most popular quiz based TV program is Japan. Every week one person becomes millionaire. The Quizzes are not just entertainment based, totally skill, and global knowledge. I can not understand all Japanese, but I also watch, and enjoy peoples highest desire. Most interesting moment, when participant fall down from his/her highest desire. The presenter also test physiologically abstractly longtime during ask questions until time finish. During tsunami, one Japan- Maldives couple wined millionaires award and donated that money for tsunami effected peoples …I am impressed to see people original nature, `living for others benefit`.

There is a great similarity between Bangladeshi and Japanese village. The villagers are very simple in mind, emotional to take care guest with the total heart. When I was going to the village, I could not understand from the car, where I am; in town or village. I thought I am somewhere in countryside area. After arrived by walking through the village road I try to compare and try to find the different between Bangladeshi and Japanese village. Here all farmers have car, tractor, pickup to carry crop but in Bangladesh most of all don’t have. Communication infrastructure very strong, all road is the mini version of high way, always moves the car and no traffic, every body follows driving laws, even though don’t have any traffic police . In the village have also Internet connectivity, telecommunication and power facilities. All young people don’t have “pasocon”, but have private car and mobile phone. The old people are very religious and traditional to take care ancestral culture. In their face has touch of spiritual power and self confidence. Villagers like natural food, don’t destroy the natural beauty/ color of food by using spice or too much boiling. They just don’t eat, they enjoy also food beauty. Most important matter, there is middle man exploitation, digital divide. In village also have big shopping center and community service center and all facilities of citizen life.

What about the village in this developed Japan? At last I got change to visit a village of Chiva province, nearby Tokyo. It was my desire to see Japanese village. There is a great similarity between Bangladeshi and Japanese village. The villagers are very simple in mind, emotional to take care guest with the total heart. When I was going to the village, I could not understand from the car, where I am; in town or village. I thought I am somewhere in countryside area. After arrived by walking through the village road I try to compare and try to find the different between Bangladeshi and Japanese village. Here all farmer has car, tractor, pickup to carry crop but in Bangladesh most of all don`t have. Communication infrastructure very strong, all road is the mini version of high way, always moves the car and no traffic, every body follows driving laws, even though don’t have any traffic police . In the village has also Internet connectivity, telecommunication and power facilities. All young people don’t have “pasocon” < Japanese terminology of computer >, but have private car and mobile phone . The old people are very religious and traditional to take care ancestral culture. In their face has touch of spiritual power and self confidence. Villagers like natural food, don’t distroy the natural beauty/ color of food by using spice or to much boiling. They just don’t eat, they enjoy also food beauty. Most important matter, there is middle man exploitation, digital divide. In village also have big shopping center and community service center and all facilities of citizen life.

Being in same mission “Peace and Love” the conflicts is as pick in the realms of religions. When the groups are deadly hated each-other; Muslim by Muslim ( Shiya- Sunni, Conventional – Ahamedia ) , Hindu by Muslim ( Gurat, Aojudia ), Muslims by Jews ( Palestine ) , Christian by Christian; of that time what happens in far east Japan? Even though origin different, the two religions Buddhism and Sintu are uniquely following in same house, by same family and even in same prayer room. I feel sorry when I think Jews-Christian-Muslim same in origin but feel proud by killing/ hate each other. My realization, Japanese example can encourage us to overcome the cultural and religious barrier, by uniting the religion and philosophy with devotion for peace , is not it?

onargaon, the ancient capital of Bengal. The historic name Sonargaon came from the pre-Muslim periodic ancient that of Suvarnagrama, after being occupied it by Muslim ruler. Presently, it is the name of an upazila in the Narayanganj district. The ‘golden village’ (Sonargaon) is now a township about 27 kilometers to the southeast of Dhaka. At 13th century local Hindu ruler Danujamadhava, (Raja danuj rai of Ziauddin Barani) may have shifted his capital to Suvarnagrama from vikramapura. With the Muslim occupation of the vanga area, Sonargaon continued to be the administrative center of southeastern Bengal till the rise of Dhaka. There are many historical and archeological evidences both Muslim and Hindu widely indicate conflicts and unity.

There is great similarly between Sakura (Cherry Blossoms in Japan) and Krishnochura (Flower of Bangladesh). But the Krishnochura is not widely spread of Bangladesh as like as Cherry Blossoms in Japan, but more beautiful. In Japan special Cherry take care and planted by the government and community, but in Bangladesh not so. In the spring time, all Japanese praise the nature and cherry, comes from national animist culture, comes from the unique unity between Buddhism and Sintuism.

Hanami is the open air public nature viewing parties and festivals during spring cherry blossom (sakura) Japan. Yesterday I have joined in the biggest Hamami in Iino area. In the exotic natural views, painted by Cherry flowers, there was held a traditional cultural shows, dance, song and performance. Just like a big picnic, whole day and night. In foothill, we have watch cultural events with the open heart, and eat different type of foods and drink until the control. There was borders and boundaries even race, sex and religions; all are human and peaceful. I am very impressed to see free human souls…I missed to take camera, but take some by my mobile set. Hanami custom has been observing since the 7th century when the aristocrats enjoyed looking at the cherry blossoms and wrote poems.
There is many famous cherry blossom viewing spots all over Japan. By the by, I would like to mentioned, sakura is the national flower of Japan, and there are over four hundred varieties of cherry trees in Japan. Sakura is different from the cherry of other countries. The Japanese cherry tree does not yield fruit like other cherry trees.
