    Moody's places Bangladesh’s Ba3 ratings under review for downgrade

    Why is a Pakistani so obsessed about BD? You barely see any BD'shi commenting on the Pakistani section. Anyway the article has an inaccuracy as forex reserves have actually gone up over the last month.

    Destroying the economy to save the thieves

    These guys contradict themselves within 5 minutes. They have made up their minds and then find "evidence" to back this up where it should be the other way round. Their world is a utopia of perfection where the rulers are 100% clean but what they fail to understand is that the rulers are just a...

    AL's strategy of intimidation may no longer be working

    Nope, as I have my own brain and can work out how things work. Don't need someone else to do my thinking for me. Do you really think that Walton is now selling consumer electronics like mobiles and TVs in the West without targeted government support over the last decade? Do you really think...

    AL's strategy of intimidation may no longer be working

    Replace a party that has given the fastest growing large developing economy in the world with what? 1. Forex reseves successfully stabilised. 2. GDP per capita at PPP has caught up with India when it was around 75% of India's 15 years ago. 3. GDP growth expected to hit 6.5% this fiscal when a...

    Destroying the economy to save the thieves

    Dude, this is minor in the grand scheme of things. The BD economy is still the fastest growing large developing economy in the world. If it was that corrupt it would not be growing so fast.

    Reserves rose slightly to $34.02 billion

    BD just needs to keep the Gulfies sweet and then all good. I have criticised Hasina for some engagement with the Saudis recently but she probably is just paying lip-service as she wants them to help BD keep its forex high through remittances. Ice-cold woman who is a true master at geopolitics.

    Reserves rose slightly to $34.02 billion

    Remember that only 3-4 months ago they were predicting that BD would be unable to pay import bills by now as it's forex reserves would be too low. :lol: It was obvious that BD would stabilise it's forex reserves and has a healthy 5-6 months in imports available. We are likely to see a gradual...

    Reserves rose slightly to $34.02 billion

    BD would have needed to prove this to IMF in order to get the 4.5bn loan package. Good job in stabilising the forex reserves as it was getting dangerously low.

    Bangladesh’s foreign debt more than triples in 10 years

    He forgot to mention that increased remittances more than makes up for the increased trade deficit. Lots of countries in the world have trade deficits for decades on end and they function fine. BD is making more stuff at home and so we should gradually see a reduction in the trade deficit as...

    The United States is concerned about the harassment and arrest of opposition activists

    Donkeys think that democracy is a good thing in a developing country. Let their butt hurt continue as BD will continue with its quasi-dictatorship model all throughout this decade at least. They have absolutely no idea just how different BD is to the rest of the region and how it is...

    British Bangladeshis are doing astonishingly well at school

    It is not just their rote learning but they are simply interested in stuff beyond their intelligence levels. Most would be better off spending their free time watching reality TV shows as that is more their level.

    U.S. COVID-19 Vaccine Donations to Bangladesh Surpass 100 Million Mark

    They took it too far with the vaccinations and injected the young and healthy. Luckily most of the population obtained natural immunity before the "jabs" could interfere with this. That is why developing countries like BD and India suffer almost zero deaths now unlike the UK that "jabbed"...

    British Bangladeshis are doing astonishingly well at school

    To be honest the whingers here are totally marginalised in BD politics and economy now. Ruling party has made them irrelevant and they will probably now stay this way for eternity as BD progresses to "middle-income" country in the 2030s. Their only outlet is to vent their frustrations on life...

    British Bangladeshis are doing astonishingly well at school

    I think we are being a little pessimistic here. Most of us BD'shis came to UK in the 1980s and that is why we are behind Indians who largely mainly came here in the 1960s and 1970s. It will take some time for the academic success to translate finally into real economic ones and...

    Walton Television Manufacturing Documentary Video 2020

    Just a matter of time as they are launching in one European country after another. They have even come up with their own OS now in the name of ROS. They only import the SoC and so just as in-house like LG and Sony. The only difference is that they improve existing technology and do not yet have...

    Walton Television Manufacturing Documentary Video 2020

    You can pick up a 32Inch Walton HD television in Ireland's biggest retailer for 220 Euros - quite good reviews on the TV so far and no worse than other most established manufactuers like LG and Samsung.

    Walton Television Manufacturing Documentary Video 2020

    Yes the whole TV(including 4K) is designed and manufactured from scratch. BD is now in the big-league in consumer electronics, just behind the giants like LG, Samsung and Sony.

    Bangladesh November exports hit all-time high, crossing $5b mark

    These "experts" think that it is so easy for countries to just switch away from BD and so BD will need to keep making its garments cheaper and cheaper in order to keep it's market share. They do not understand the backward linkage, quality and scale that BD has built up over many decades that...

    A solution for Bangladesh: Solar power production along with agriculture.

    BD should not heavily invest in solar power plants as it has little land for this kind of activity. It is fine to put them on buildings and then connect them to the grid this way. BD will get plenty of power from India and through it from hydrolectric power plants in Nepal and Bhutan and so...
