What happened to the impending meltdown and dollar crunch? Oil price is falling fast. Expect dollar reserve to stabilise at around 25 billion.

Where did I say it will be easy? All I am saying is that BD can start there. If it doesn’t sell in Africa - it won’t sell anywhere.

You do talk a lot of nonsense don’t you! EU will only embargo Bangladesh if it embraces Jamati terrorism. India assassinated a Canadian citizen in Canada. Canada thought the US and EU would join it in condemning India. Both refused to do so…because they do not want to jeopardise economic...

I don’t think Bangladesh has the expertise to even job shadow a foreman!! They need to acquire the skills by working in Arab oil wells. Send people to US for study and work experience. Maybe in 5 years they will have enough expertise to “partner” with a small European player.

Foreign funding of exploration will mean most of the revenue goes abroad. It will not benefit the country much. And probably do ecological damage… And the cost will be front loaded - which will hurt other projects. It should be left unexplored until Bangladesh can do the exploration by itself.

Bangladesh needs more billionaires - people who can attract and fund large scale industrialisation. Wealth spread too thinly also brings problems.

Some of the Vidyas are enlightened. On par with Greek philosophy. But it has no Devine source. I don’t! Religion is not based on science. But some religious rules and facts are based on science.

Indian culture is a fusion of Vedic, Sufi and Christianity. However, since 1947, Hinduvta has eroded that identity. If India means Bharat - then I wholeheartedly reject that identity. Hinduvta is even coercing Bollywood script writers from using Urdu words. I think it’s best to let India...

If military takes over - it will be beholden to USA. Just as previous military regimes. That will alienate China. The business community and most of the military will veto it. Bangladeshi establishment is heavily pro China.

PIGs are haram in Islam because they are dirty and can spread fungal infection. Carnivores are also haram - since they can also carry diseases. E.g. mad cow disease has its roots in feeding animal byproducts to cows.

Due to mineral resources and feudal nature of African tribes - they have a larger, per capita, Uber rich population than Bangladesh. India and Pakistan are very much like African tribal societies. Bangladesh is a much more egalitarian society. Bangladeshis might buy fewer cars and luxuries -...

Remember, Bengal Sultanate was also under constant attack from the thieves of Maratha. The Maratha’s were the Pholon Devi of that era. Bengal sultanate should have meted out harsh sharia punishment on them. Maratha’s would loot and ransack villages at night.

Bugger off Kim!!! BD has no need for Korean cars. Second hand Japanese cars are way better than anything produced by Korea or India.

It impacts Bangladesh and written through Bangladeshi lense. Stop whining! It’s only a humble discussion forum!!! You bloody busy bodies cannot help yourselves!!!

https://www.economist.com/the-economist-explains/2023/09/15/will-india-change-its-name-to-bharat Let’s be honest! Indian culture is Mughal Sufi Muslim culture. If Hinduvta wants to ditch Mughal culture they have to change the country’s name to a Vedic name. I am sick and tired of Hindus...
