I understand where you are coming from, but even things like that plus UN peacekeeping and private ventures like Raddison Hotel, it is very hard for army to buy new equipment using its own money. Lets look at the figures here, on average lets say the pay of a soldier is 15,000 taka/month. Now...

Hmm I am not so sure about that, usually our defence purchases are taken on loan or on credit. Plus if you include in inflation as well as the fact that our population is getting more educated therefore commands more salary, the budget is similar to the previous budgets.

If i am not wrong this money is used for the upkeep and maintence of man, machine and camp. This figures does not represent our defence purchase, which goes through ministry of defence as well as the parliament first. Army has the largest share for the obvious reason, it has way more equipment...

I am not really a chemistry person but I heard of stories of people extracting gunpowder from part poppers other small harmless explosives.

"Bare" chested putin wrestling bear???

Nothing good can ever come out of this. Inciting or helping these insurgents will only disturb our own peace

Although I am down for any trainings for our submariners, I would like to point out that it is a waste of money to buy subs just for training. 1) Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam all have teardrop hulled submarine and they did not buy any training subs. They trained on the subs they bought and...

It aint gonna be that cheap. Old pieces of equipment are costly to maintain(both by the lack of spare parts and the frequency of overhaul). Plus its even more dangerous since they are old, it will become more accident prone. Look at indian navy, they have years of experience in operating subs in...

Switzerland will decide whether or not to increase minimum wage to $25 bucks on 18 may. Wanna move there?
