The PRESIDENT: The next speaker is the Adviser for Foreign Affairs of Bangladesh, Mr. Humayun Rasheed Choudhury, whom I welcome. I invite him to take a place at the Council table and to make his statement. 42. Mr. CHOUDHURY (Bangladesh): Mr. President, it is a privilege for me and the other members of my delega- tion to participate in this important debate, and I wish to thank you and the members of the Council for giving us this opportunity. 43. I take part in this debate on the basis of the mandate entrusted to me and to several of my colleagues by the Extraordinary Ministerial Meeting of the Coordinating Bureau of Non-Aligned Countries on the question of Na- mibia, held at New Delhi from 19 to 21 April. I also do SO to reiterate our firm support for, and solidarity with, the valiant people of Namibia in their just and legitimate struggle for freedom and national independence. Despite my extreme preoccupation back home, in the aftermath of a catastrophic natural disaster that hit Bangladesh recently and left behind in its trail death and destruction of monstrous proportions, I am here today to espouse a noble cause involving human dignity and humanity at large. 44. May I congratulate you, Sir, on behalf of the Bang- ladesh delegation, as well as on my own behalf, on your assumption of the presidency for the month of June. We are confident that under the able and wise guidance of such a distinguished leader of a fellow non-aligned coun- try, the Council’s deliberations will achieve concrete and decisive results towards the early independence of Na- mibia. 
analysis: The text does not seem to be directly related to economic development, agriculture, forestry, fishing, industry, transport, communication, international trade, employment, or culture. It appears to be focused on a political issue, specifically the independence of Namibia and the solidarity of non-aligned countries with the Namibian people. The mention of a natural disaster in Bangladesh also suggests a humanitarian aspect.
