Every Friday Mr. Bulat would deliver before a combination of students his weekly lecture on Political Economy. I liked his scenario making on regionalism under the bigger North and South Divide mentioning pros and cons of his country’s non aligned tactics with respect to strings attached International regularizations and facilities. Today having not prepared his lecture he let students watch a movie on the World Trade Organization policies and procedure. Finding this a good time to exchange views with him I went to his seat where seeing me he enquired if I wouldn’t watch the movie. ‘I have had it earlier Sir’ I responded and waited for a while fearing he might object my calling him Sir. Officially teachers and professors used to be addressed as friends and colleagues.
