Welcome to the forum! As per your question, Bangladesh's power supply has improved leaps and bounds in the last decade. I visit BD almost every year for at least 3 weeks, and I have experienced maybe at most two hour of load-shedding in total in those 3 weeks. When I compare it to my school...

Actually, when an enemy in F-16 or Rafale will see a yellow-colored, newly designed PT6 flying towards it.. the horror of the view will shock will freeze their fingers and minds for few secs and that's all we need to use our FM-90s in the ground to take it out. :flame: You see, you dont even...

I dont think TFX or whatever will be able to match the might of the newly-added PT6 and K-8s. After all, BAF = Bishal Akromonkari Force :bounce:

Okay wait, someone explain this to me. Bonds give fixed interest = haram They are fixing 4.69% return. How is this different from normal treasury bonds and where is the risk involved if I am guaranteed 4.69%? What am I missing?

Very good development and we need to accept this offer. This will bring us double benefits of getting good weapons from a reliable friendly nation at an affordable price and also getting involved in defence projects and getting the ToTs. We should not be thinking twice as we already have...

You know, as Bangladeshis, we are well aware of the fact that we are a spendy nation. There is no element of doubt about that. We like to show, compete in materialistic things and quite recently, travel a lot. This is good, COVID or no COVID. Atleast within my circle, I haven't seen anyone who...

The older BD members, if they have followed my posts much earlier, would know that I quite rightly predicted such move. One thing people should realize about Hasina is that she is an extremely cunny woman and BD politics is dirty to the very core. If you have to survive in our political...

Thank you. What you said is correct! Bangladesh has a natural defence mechanism and it will be an extremely difficult task to attack and capture it due to its terrain. One also needs to comprehend that we are a nation of 160 million, probably 7th largest by population in the world by now. It is...

And apparently some half-broken coast guard ships. Pretty sure this must have made headlines in India. "Indian Defence Export on the rise: How India became an armaments superpower" :bounce:

I haven't flown Biman since 2001. I remember back then I travelled to Bangladesh from the UAE. The pilot was my dad's old friend, so I was allowed access to the cockpit and sat there sipping tea with him. Its still the only time I went into the cockpit up until today. It has always been other...

Never seen our military buy even a bullet from India. Not sure if that will ever change. Our government can all be India-friendly as they like but it will be next to impossible to convince our military to buy Indian weapons. Hasina knows jacksh*t about military being the Defence Minister...

As expected, good, balanced statement. I am surprised this guy talks sense sometimes.

This is good stuff. Keep the Navy expansion going. We need a solid force to keep our resource-rich areas protected. The next step should be really stepping up the Air wing of the Navy. Establish a maritime strike force and place them in Chittagong.

Haha thank you both! Covid-19 has made me extremely dormant with an unprecedented interest into Netflix's K-Dramas taking precedence. :lol: We do? I thought now that we have the BAF aerobatics team, we could scare away intruders with our sky dance? :rolleyes:

Helicopter Carrier for what, when we dont have fighters to back it up in the sky? Oh wait, we have an airforce?

Lol MLP is such a clown. How many Pakistanis and Bangladeshis are in France, that too legally doing white collar jobs? I've been to Paris and know loads of people there. The proportion of Bangladeshis leading a good/solid life is miniscule. A majority of them are illegals. So I don't think...

I always like young people in politics. But our political scenario is so dirty that its hard to decide who will honest and will truly work for the country. Not sure about Nur as I did not follow his rise much. But reading from comments and opinion pieces, loos like he represents the...

This train only reminds me of 'Train to Busan'. :triniti:

BNP shot itself into their own foot by engaging in these sort of violence. The grenade attack had BNP written all over it - every tom, dick and harry knows that in BD. Moreover, they tried to disrupt the 2014 election by petrol-bombing random people on the street. Again, every tom, dick and...

I reckon most people here are missing the point. Given the recent fluttering in India due to the BD-Pak diplomatic talk, this is just a mere 'chill buddy' gesture towards them, just to show that our govt is still aligned with the 'Supapawa'. Nothing more. If this was a genuine gesture in any...
