Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on January 02, 1946)

Happy Birthday, Matiur Rahman! Another year wiser, yet still editing headlines faster than most of us can finish our morning tea. Your fearless leadership at the Daily Prothom Alo has not only shaped journalism in Bangladesh but also given readers countless reasons to smile (and occasionally spill their tea laughing).

From groundbreaking investigative reports to championing freedom of speech, your dedication continues to inspire. May your birthday be filled with as much joy and excitement as the day you first saw your name in print—minus the looming deadlines! Here's wishing you another year of success, laughter, and typo-free front pages.
