The ex-Gonobahini turned out to be excellent workers. These underground fighters were young (usually between eighteen and twenty years old), hard working, and dedicated. They had wanted to liberate the country with guns and revolution, and now they were walking around those same villages extending micro-loans to the destitute. They just needed a cause to fight for. We channeled their energies toward something more constructive than terrorism. Provided they gave up their guns, we were happy to hire them as bank workers.
