Fazle Hasan Abed has built one of the world s mostcommercially-minded and successful NGOs;
法佐哈桑阿比德建立了世界上最具商业头脑的、最成功的NGO组织;
Smiling and dapper, Fazle Hasan Abed hardlyseems like a revolutionary. A Bangladeshieducated in Britain, an admirer of Shakespeareand Joyce, and a former accountant at Shell, he is the son of a distinguished family: hismaternal grandfather was a minister in the colonial government of Bengal; a great-uncle wasthe first Bengali to serve in the governor of Bengal s executive council. This week hereceived a very traditional distinction of his own: a knighthood. Yet the organisation hefounded, and for which his knighthood is a gong of respect, has probably done more than anysingle body to upend the traditions of misery and poverty in Bangladesh. Called BRAC, it isby most measures the largest, fastest-growing non-governmental organisation in theworldand one of the most businesslike.
面带微笑、衣冠楚楚的法佐哈桑阿比德怎么看也不像是一个革命者。这个在英国受的教育的孟加拉人是莎士比亚和乔伊斯的粉丝,曾在壳牌公司作过会计,家族显赫:外祖父是孟加拉殖民政府的一位部长;一位叔祖父是第一个为孟加拉行政会议长官做事的孟加拉人。本周,阿比德得到了加在自己头上的荣誉一个很有传统的称号:爵士头衔。然而,他创建的这个组织他被授予爵士头衔也是对这个组织的一种敬意 却颠覆了传统,改变了孟加拉一直以来的贫穷和困苦,而且在这方面作出的贡献可能比任何一个单一团体都要多。这个组织叫作BRAC,用绝大多数标准衡量都是世界上最大的、成长最迅速的非政府组织而且是最像企业的NGO之一。
