Rethinking Yunus After NORAD Letter](https://rumon.co/nobel-laureate-avoid-taxes-rethinking-yunus-after-norad-letter/): Introduction This letter was written 27 years ago, in 1998, by Professor Muhammad Yunus. He addressed it to Tore H. Toreng, then Assistant Director of NORAD (the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation). Context of the Letter:NORAD, a Norwegian aid agency that provides humanitarian support worldwide, granted nearly $100 million to strengthen the operations of Grameen Bank. Instead of keeping the funds within Grameen Bank, Professor Yunus secretly transferred them to a separate entity he created, called Grameen Kalyan. His goal, as later revealed, was to avoid paying taxes to the Bangladeshi government. When this came to light, NORAD and the Norwegian […] - [Are Bad People Intelligent?](https://rumon.co/are-bad-people-intelligent/): Some people think that bad people must be intelligent. After all, they manipulate, deceive, and sometimes succeed in doing so. But is that really intelligence? Today, I will explore the deeper meaning of intelligence — and why harming others is not a sign of a sharp mind. The Thought An intelligent person thinks ahead. They consider the consequences of their actions. Such a person would not trade peace of mind or dignity for a short-term gain. Someone who keeps doing wrong without thinking about what might come next is not intelligent. Sooner or later, their actions may come to light, and […] - [AI, Ethics, and Human Morality](https://rumon.co/ai-ethics-and-morality/): Artificial intelligence is not only a technical tool. It is also a mirror of our collective morality. Yet too often it is built for efficiency and attention. That tendency shows a deep human weakness: our reluctance to admit mistakes. If AI inherits this flaw, it may weaken the foundations of moral life. Lack of Morality in AI Design People have long shown a tendency to act selfishly for personal gain. If such impulses are coded into machines, they could operate at a scale beyond our control. We must therefore set firm boundaries in AI design. These barriers should protect society, safeguard […] - [Human Evaluation Fundamentals](https://rumon.co/human-evaluation-fundamentals/): Fundamentals of How To Evaluate People The current societal norms for evaluating humans often overlook virtues, values, and principles. In most cases, a person is judged based on influence, wealth, appearance, and social connections. This method is inaccurate and unjust. It neglects the core values of individuals. A just evaluation process should prioritize internal qualities over external factors that do not reflect true worth. Failing to judge people based on their virtues is a significant injustice in human evaluation. Sadly, the world is still not on the right track. As a result, this injustice has persisted throughout history and remains present […] - [Does Religion Bring Peace to Humanity?](https://rumon.co/does-religion-bring-peace/): According to the Global Peace Index, the more secular a country’s population is, the more peaceful it tends to be. Conversely, countries with a higher percentage of religious followers tend to experience more instability and unrest. The following seven countries have the highest proportion of secular, non-religious individuals—and, they are among the most peaceful nations in the world: (Source: CEOWORLD & Global Peace Index) In contrast, the following seven nations have the highest proportion of religious individuals, yet they rank among the lowest in global peace indicators: (Source: CEOWORLD & Global Peace Index) Why Secular Societies More Peaceful? One key reason […] - [Honouring the Honest: A Path to a Better World](https://rumon.co/honouring-honest-people/): Honest people are the true strength of society—the rarest jewels. Yet many fail to practise honesty in all circumstances. Some remain honest simply because life never tests them. The true jewels, however, endure hardship and difficult choices yet still cling to honesty. It is easy to be honest when life is comfortable; it is heroic to be honest in struggle. Such people are not only honest but defenders of honesty itself. A lifetime of honesty often comes at a heavy price in a world driven by self-interest. Dishonest people dominate society, while the honest are overlooked—too quiet, too humble, too unglamorous […] ## Pages - [Home](https://rumon.co/): RumonAnam For a just world Justice is not only a courtroom matter; it should be practiced by all for a happier world. – Rumon Anam Writings Love the whole universe and all its existence the way you love yourself. – Rumon Anam - [Contact](https://rumon.co/contact/): Loading… ## Optional - [Agent (MCP protocol)](websites-agents.hostinger.com/rumon.co/mcp) [comment]: # (Generated by Hostinger Tools Plugin)
