মূসা ঈব্রাহীম- মূসা ঈব্রাহীম- মূসা ঈব্রাহীম। 'মূসা ঈব্রাহীম' একটি পরিচিত নাম হয়ে গিয়েছে আমাদের বাঙালীদের নিকট। সেই হচ্ছে প্রথম বাঙালী যে কিনা বিশ্বের সর্বোচ্চ শৃংগ মাউন্ট এভারেষ্ট জয় করেছেন। পত্র পত্রিকার শিরুনামে পরিণত হয়েছেন।

ব্লগে লেখার বিষয় হয়েছেন। তাকে নিয়ে অনেক কবিতা রচিত হবে, গল্পও লেখা হবে। দু-ই চারটে নাটক টেলিফিল্ম কিংবা সিনেমাও বানাতে পারে আমাদের দেশের নাট্যকার, সিনেমা পরিচালক গন। কারণ একটাই, সে বিশ্বের বুকে আমাদের নাম উজ্জল করেছে। তাহলে এবার আসুন আরো কিছু মানুষের নাম ঠিকানা ও এভারেষ্ট জয়ের তারিখ জেনে নেই যারা নিজ নিজ দেশের হয়ে, দেশের নাম উজ্জল করেছেন।
