To spread the spirit of the liberation war from generation to generation under the patronage of Grameenphone, Mr. Abu Suffian started creating a digital library about freedom fighters. He said that listening to the memories of the 1971s from the mouths of freedom fighters from different parts of the country started vigorously but stopped after the production of videos of about 2,200 people.

‘I have seen in different townships the struggle of people fighting for their livelihood to protect their lives and existence’, said Mr. Abu Suffian, I am fascinated by the change in people’s behavior and language usage from region to region. I like to see people, and I want to be with people. People motivate me to work. My works are for the development of the people.

I made 10 documentaries for Plan International Bangladesh with local artists of the Chakma community. These include women’s empowerment in neglected hill towns, prevention of child marriage, post-natal care, dowry, health, family planning, adolescent services, he added.

Mr. Biplob said that the lifestyle of the residents of Ukhia and Teknaf, a neglected town on the border of Cox’s Bazar district. He said, after the Rohingyas took shelter in these two upazilas, the lifestyle of the residents has changed, the Rohingyas have shared their livelihood, and the roughness has increased. They have to face new reality every day. I have done documentation work on this changed situation. I also do some work with the Rohingyas. Since the Rohingyas took refuge in this country, I have been involved in various development activities for them. I make videos on humane living and awareness of Rohingya’s hygiene, family planning, trafficking, women abuse, pregnancy services, education, etc.

He expressed the feeling of receiving the award and said, I have been engaged in this work for a long time. Now, I am getting job recognition. This recognition will speed up my activity along the way. My workflow will continue.

Suffian’s was born in Pakundia of Kishoreganj. But he grew up in Dhaka city. He has left his family and responsibility to his wife, Ruma Akhtar. Both agreed on raising their children and that the boys should be able to raise themselves in their way. May they become human beings with honesty.

Finally, we are at the forefront of technological change. When asked how media will go in the future, he said with time, we had moved from the age of cassettes to the age of electronic devices. From that analog panel now, we are working on a digital board. I’m optimistic that the pace of technology won’t leave us behind with the enthusiasm among our creators. At the same time, there are some fears. The way we enter within four inches of the palm of our hand, we want to see everything on the mobile phone, if the media will be just for mobile.
