Unemployment is the state of not having a job to earn one's livelihood. This problem is one of the talked topics in the present context of Bangladesh. It is a curse and it has become acute in our country. In Bangladesh, there are different reasons behind unemployment problem.
Bangladesh is an overpopulated country. Her population is much larger than the job opportunities she can provide. As a result, government is not capable of providing employment for too many people. Moreover, there are some problems in our education system. Our education is not capable of making skilled people and there is a great difference between our education and professional proficiency. As a result, educated people have to suffer a lot.
People of our country hanker after dignified job and some people just want to become officers only. Some people dislike laborious job and so they remain unemployed. This is a great reason behind this problem.
Unemployment problem in Bangladesh causes many social problems like drug addiction, drug business, terrorism, hijacking, extortion and so on. Unemployed people of our society have to lead a miserable life and they become the burden of the nation. The burden of unemployment becomes a great curse to the unemployed people.
To solve the unemployment problem, government as well as non-government organisations have to take pragmatic initiatives. We have to foster industrialisation and establish new mills and factories. Vocational education should be encouraged and introduced.
Our educated young generation should change their attitude to life. They can start small business of their own such as poultry farming, cultivating fish, growing vegetables etc. In fact, self-employment is a possible solution to this great problem. If all these can be implemented, the problem will be reduced to a great extent.
We should increase the rate of literacy so that people can be conscious of the bad effects of overpopulation.
