procedure, a name that immediately comes to our mind is
that of Mr. Khondoker Abdul Haque Miah, currently a

(UNDP).
He
has spent 24 of his 37 years of service life dealing
with parliamentary affairs, 16 of them in Bangladesh and

British House of Commons, U.S. Senate and the US House
of Representatives. He retired as an Additional
Secretary. He has attended a number of parliamentary
conferences and seminars.

Miah obtained his masters degree in international
relations from Dhaka University and then joined the
Central Secretariat Service of Pakistan. He was later
inducted into Bangladesh Civil Service.He has a number
of publications, mostly on subjects relating to
parliament, but the Bengali translation of George
Orwell's famous novel "Animal Farm" is really
outstanding. Widely traveled, Mr. Khondoker has two
