A country's trained youth do not immediately get 3 lakh per month before they themselves heavily contribute to the physical and social development of their country.The model is the same in Switzerland too, or let's say in most European welfare state. Its an excellent method to ensure low unemployment, more societal engagement and lower crime. An apprentice directly out of high school who trained in a special field for 3 years will find employment soon and make at the bare minimum 3.5k CHF (~ 3 lakhs taka).
However, the problem that would surface in Bangladesh is that the income would not be enough to survive in an increasing inflationary state + no guarantee of jobs. Even now, people with proper jobs considered to be middle class have difficulties in making ends meet. Let alone the ones who are in vocational studies.
The government needs to ensure jobs for these people and provide enough to sustain themselves. That is the only downside and probably the biggest issue. Other than that, its a good plan.
The people in the European countries have been working hard, learning all kinds of knowledge, science, and technology for more than 300 years. They developed science, technology, math (calculus by Newton) throughout these centuries.
What they receive as wages and related facilities and amenities today are the cumulative results of their long perseverance for 300 years or more.
In comparison, BD is a completely backward country even with so large development aids from all quarters.
So, when BD people get rid of superstitions, learn how to build the physical infrastructure, build virtually millions of industries, and import mostly the capital/ technology goods, a time will certainly come when BD people would be earning 3 Lakh Taka per month.
Money does not come out of printing machines. It comes out of the values that a country's people collectively produce. This wealth is distributed among the populace. So, more value-added production means more wages and salaries to the population.
This is why when developed countries' people get 3 Lakh each, we do not get even 30 thousand. It means they produce more than ten times per head.
