No it does not work this way. Half of Pakistan is pretty much unhabitable and you cannot grow crops either, whereas nearly all of France and Spain is habitable and is fertile. France and Spain have a population of 110 million with DOUBLE the fertile land area of Pakistan that has TWICE the...

Many of the "experts" here think that BD should become more like Vietnam and become a re-exporter for MNCs like Apple, Samsung etc. Well let us look at what the UK's CEBR forecasts for growth rates for BD and Vietnam between 2027 and 2037...

Only the largest and most developed countries like USA and upcoming China can try to do it all. BD needs to make a choice and it has chosen garments, IT, home electronics, pharma and shipbuilding for now. As it's economy develops and technological levels rise it will get into higher tech...

No time to bother with democracy just yet as Hasina needs to carry on with her implementation of RSTP 2016-2035. :coffee: After this is complete then we can talk about democracy.;)

I am not sure whether you have heard of Hasina's grand scheme RSTP 2016-2035 to give Dhaka and its surroundings world-class infrastructrure? This metro line has been built according to the exact schedule in that plan. Dhaka in 2035 will be up there with any other metropolis in the region, if...

Dhaka will within 15 years be transformed into a modern and world-class metropolis all thanks to the leadership of Sheikh Hasina who is the greatest leader on this planet. No-one else comes close to her competence and BD trolls are just making fools of themselves by wanting her replaced with...

Delaying the signing of the contract is no big deal in the grand scheme of things. We may see the official contract being signed in early 2024 after the "election" is over and BNP/opposition whining has died down due to the fact it was a BAL version of an election and not the one they wanted...

BD never looked at China as it's main development partner. It used to be mainly Japan before China came into the equation in the last 5 years. Hasina may just be waiting till after the 2023 "elections" before she announces what is a substantial contract with China for the Teesta Barrage. This...

One anecdote and I am living in cloud cuckoo land. :disagree: Comeon, you are better than that. BD people have no incentive to discriminate against their own kind. The ones complaining simply lack the skills for the jobs they want.

BD was probably the richest area on the planet and one of the most technologically advanced when the US was still a British colony in the middle of the 18th century. They are ignorant usurpers of red Indian land and they should know that BD does not align with anyone. Time they took out a...

I think with the tourist and export boom we are seeing BD economy may even power ahead at 8% gdp growth in this fiscal. The economy seems to be bullet proof to anything but a total trade shutdown due to a pandemic etc.

Why would their fellow BD’shis not treat them fairly? It makes no sense.

Luckily not all BD’shis are like them. Walton has thousands of BD’shi skilled engineers developing TVs, fridges to drive the technological advancement of BD forward. Sure they don’t spend all their spare time on this forum crying about qualified Indians taking their jobs. :lol:

Please do not take my prediction as gospel as heavy Taka devaluation against the pound will wipe out the gains but something to think about.

Inflation in BD is irrelevant as all that matters is inflation in UK and the devaluation of the Taka versus pound. Apart from this year, UK inflation has hovered at 1-2% from 2016. Due to Brexit, the pound and the Taka have stayed at parity over the last 5 years and so you would have increased...

Or just put your money in BD government bonds and get 5% more than inflation. That is a much safer, less hassle and actually helps BD develop by giving access to internal finance for the government.

Going by the attitude of the whinging BD based posters on this forum, would you hire someone like them? They talk like they know everything and have little humility. No one wants to hire entitled and lazy people.

This dude is totally clueless and talks like he knows everything. In fact he has less to add than the useless BD based trolls as at least they can report what is happening on the ground in BD, even though they put their bias perspective in their anecdotes. Absolute zero contributor to the...

He seems to have good knowledge of construction and with his knowledge of Japanese language and culture he would be highly sought after in BD. He spends all his time whinging from Japan when he could be making good money and joining in the fun times in BD.

BD people are taking loans from IMF, ADB etc to go on holidays of course. :rofl:
