Message from  Chairman

I always cherish a small belief in my mind that I am born in this world only once. And I will die only once. After death, I will never get this fleeting life back. There is no way to return to this beautiful world. Therefore, whatever good I do, I have to do it once.

I was born in village; I spent my childhood and adolescence there. It is not just me; like me, most of the people of Bengal have spent their lives in rural village. We all owe a debt to the soil and people of Bengal. People made of soil will take their place in this soil after death. This journey of 'SIMEC Foundation' is an attempt to dedicate itself to the welfare of the soil and people of the village Bengal, which is the memory of my childhood and adolescence, from a small effort to repay that debt to the soil before taking shelter in the lap of this soil forever.

Rural Bengal is the true form of Bengali mother. If we want to build Bengal, if we want to make Bengal stand before the world, we have to work with rural Bengal. If we want to develop Bangladesh and make Bangladesh beautiful, we have to make Bengalis educated as a nation with modern education. I have always understood from traveling from country to country that the people of my village are deprived of modern education and real medical services. If these people can be educated and developed through social education, if they can be given minimum modern medical services, then one day they will all together enrich and develop their own villages.

I have been cherishing the dream of such a prosperous rural Bengal for many years. Whenever, wherever and however I live in this vast world, no matter how far I am from rural Bengal, I am always in this dreamy trance. May it be just my private thoughts, just the trance of dreams. But living in the dream of this thought gives me the motivation to serve the country all the time.

I don't know how much I can serve the country in this one lifetime. I don't know if I will see that prosperous village in this lifetime! Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Still, what's the point of sadness!! The only consolation is that at least I have started a good work!!!
