Dr. Habib Siddiqui, a Chittagonian from Bangladesh!

A 2 bits commentor suggested to find out about Dr. Aye Chan's Ph.D.
While I have no doubts that our revered Rakhine history scholar Sara
U Aye Chan holds a PhD. But searching Professor Dr. Aye Chan from
Kandar university found another Burmese or loyal Bangladeshi who is
keeping a web journal at the following blog.

An old message in Yahoo group gives 'a brief Bio-data of Dr.Habib
Siddiqui (Ph.D)', introduced by 'Mohamad Yusof MM (aka)Maung
Sein, Chief Coordinator, MORUG Coordinating Council, USA(HQ),
MORGU means MOVEMENT OF GREATER ROHINGYA UNITY
(MORUG) USA-(HQ),NEW YORK CITY as follows:
'I would like to post a brief Bio-data of our most respected brother
Dr.Habib Siddiqui(Ph.D) who has kindly accepted our invitation to be
an active part of MORUG-ICRBR activities and the conference.

Academic Background:
Dr. Habib Siddiqui is an alumnus of the prestigious University of
Southern California, Los Angeles, where he earned his Ph.D. He is
[the] author of several research papers.'

However, see his comments below in the eBangladesh web site:

'What any concerned Bangladeshi or an [Bangladeshi] expatriate can do
is to compare the above PSC with those made by other such authorizing
companies (e.g., Petronus) elsewhere and disclose any flaws or gaping
holes in ours to better redress such issues. In this age of information
highway, the Internet allows us to compare such matters rather quickly.
Bottom line: as I have pointed out in my interview with the Energy &
Power recently, Bangladesh cannot afford to be oblivious of its natural
resources that are already pirated and robbed by foreign countries like
India and <sic> Burma <sic>. Inaction on exploration does a greater harm
than even a flawed agreement, if any. Because by the time we develop our
own skills to either extract on our own or reach a 100% consensus, all
that is ours may already have been stolen by our neighbors. Mind that
many reservoirs are trans-national and interconnected. So, even if we
were not to drill on our sides, a neighbor can suck ours from its side
because of the nature of the reservoir.

(Dr. Siddiqui has a PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of
Southern California, Los Angeles, and his PhD thesis involved the subject
of enhanced oil recovery in disordered porous media.)'

Now you know who he is. He is against our interests and worry for others.
But what is interesting is that he inherited and lost his paternal properties to
- I wonder how come his ancestors owned about 90 crores (900 Million
Bangladesh Takas, that is about 120 million US Dollars) - land-grabbers
bossed by a politician (according to Shabbir Ahmed, Dr. Habib Siddiqui
did not even mention the name of the politician) and that inherited real
estate is in Chittagong. The article below reveals some other interesting
characters of "Dr. Habib Siddiqui" who tried to encourage Bangladesh
to act tough towards Burma (see the link above). From that article:

'In fact, he wrote voluminous articles to counter the criticism of the
liberal-freethinking writers against the fundamentalist goons of BNP
and Jamaat-I-Islami....
But the killing of a Hindu priest was "a big fuss" to Mr. Siddique as
he wrote....
He also tried to divert the attention of the conscious people by finger
-pointing many other incidences against Muslims in other parts of the
world especially in India.'

Incongruity in Habib Siddiqui is a cause for concern,

So while this Dr. Habib Siddiqui is unlikely to be a Burmese, he is
more likely to be a Chittagonian from Bangladesh, since he incited
aggression towards beloved "Myanma Pyi". I am exposing him in
"Hall of Shame" together with some Burmese fake PhDs.
