FROM THE DESK OF CHAIRMAN EDITORIAL BOARD Dear Fellow Members & Friends, On the 1st May, we have celebrated the International Workers' Day. The day is observed across the world every year since 1886 commemorating the supreme sacrifices of the workers at Hay Market, Chicago, in the USA for eight-hour working day and upholding the rights of the working class. Working people sacrificed their lives on May 1, 1886. This year s May Day gives us a more vigour as it is celebrated at a time when the Great Russian Revolution of 1917 marks its centenary celebration. We join the working people who celebrate the May Day all over the world with warmth and encouragement and salute all the working comrades who sacrificed their lives, raised their voices and shed blood and sweat for the human freedom and labour rights. The month of May was also an eventful month, like many other programs ICPE organizes a 25 days long training program on International Financial Reporting standards (IFRS) for 35 senior officials of Bangladesh Bank. This type of training program for the officials like Bangladesh Bank will reach the prominence of ICPE to a new height. This month the Holy month of Ramadan has commenced which is anxiously awaited by all the Muslims. Ramadan holds a special place in Islam and among Muslims because of two major reasons: Firstly, the book of eternal guidance the Holy Quran was revealed upon Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in this month; secondly, the 30days of fasting in this month lead to the glorious and auspicious occasion of Eid ul Fitr for Muslims. The month is given great importance by Muslims in each part of the world with all the reverence, prestige and dedication it deserves. Allah (swt) said in the Holy Quoran: O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may guard against evil. (The Holy Quran, 2:183) I take this opportunity to wish all my fraternity every success in your noble endeavour during the sacred month of Ramadan, and hope that the results of such merits would lead to greater happiness, success and the fulfillment of your wishes.
