This is despite the fact that most of the people living in Dhaka are, in fact, out of this strata. Logic dictates that most people in Dhaka are actually utilizing the rather poor services provided by buses and other public transport, unable to dish up the cash for a private car. With a private car, you are afforded the freedom to go where you wish, when you wish, most of the time, and you can rely on it in the most inopportune moments for back-up. The greater good must come at a price and, for Dhaka, that price may be for us to sacrifice certain luxuries. Now, before fingers are pointed, I do not excuse myself from a) occasionally utilizing certain luxuries and b) not having the strength, perhaps, to make that leap of faith.
