Bangladesh-Pakistan Defence Relations

[Imran Khan]

we beleve facts not emotions.fact is clear BD no need to pay much more money for its defence these ongoing policy is good save money for develpment and pay also some for defence we clearly see BD is not intrested in heavy waipens systems because its needs.one should pay money if forces need that.BD have risk from MYM and i am 100% shore they can handle them.

Well, in case of money.. I think BD economy is as big as PAK economy. If Bangladesh diverts some of the money from its social project.. it can build an army as stronger as PAK army, it should not be a problem. But the fact is, Bangladesh army is as big as its economic ratio. It is not inflated like Indian or Pakistani army. It is growing as our economy grows without putting too much strain on our economy. Yes Bangladesh could build Frigates and one of our private ship builder already refurbished one of the frigates and they are pursuing GOB to get some orders in building Navy vessels. You have to import high tech electronics, radar and guidance system. None of the south asian countries have that capabilities to build state of the art system anyways.

With all due respect, I would like to enlighten your economic statistics a bit. Please do some research before commencing an argument.

Pakistan's GDP [Purchase Power Parity] is $475 billion USD.

Bangladesh GDP [PPP] $206 billion USD.

Pakistan GDP per capita is $1045

Bangladesh GDP per capita $550

We are all in favor of a stronger BD force then its current state.

Thnx for the information,but the problem is BD spends least in military among south asian nations,as a percentage of GDP.Not to mention corruption,which is stopping us from being a strong and developed nation.

With all due respect, I would like to enlighten your economic statistics a bit. Please do some research before commencing an argument.

Pakistan's GDP [Purchase Power Parity] is $475 billion USD.

Bangladesh GDP [PPP] $206 billion USD.

Pakistan GDP per capita is $1045

Bangladesh GDP per capita $550

We are all in favor of a stronger BD force then its current state.

These figure does not... really reflect a true economic strength of a country. This figure only shows both Pakistan and Bangladesh are extremely poor nation.
You have to go back to 2002 economic figure. Let say Bangladesh did not exist that time. Pakistan economic data was as good as this one in 2002, and look at your army at that time sitting on top of a nuke bomb. Does that say anything? Does Bangladesh built an army as big as Pakistan as it did existed in 2002.

I dont want to mention how the economy of pakistan inflated for the last six years.. to give some credits to pakistani people. You will find that out in next 5 years when there is a big possibility that BD economy will surpass PAK economy.

The gross domestic product (GDP) or gross domestic income (GDI) is one of the measures of national income and output for a given country's economy. GDP is defined as the total market value of all final goods and services produced within the country in a given period of time (usually a calendar year). It is also considered the sum of a value added at every stage of production (the intermediate stages) of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time, and it is given a money value.

The figures I have mentioned are nominal values of per capita

Pakistan GDP PPP per capita is $3380 USD

when bd get these from were they get ?

who pay these secret money?
and india was sleeping that time?
please be a realstic these kind of claims show that you don't know any thing

sorry

 

[z9-ec]

Still it is shamefully poor...

Indeed, there is always the need to improve economic conditions in South Asia. We are developing nations. Mind you, Pakistan is not in recession, our GDP is set to grow 5-6% this year despite the prevailing situation.

Enhanced trade between South Asia including Bangladesh and Pakistan will likely boost our economies and eventually improve our living standards.

 

[TopCat]

now you troling and insulting the nation becasuse you don't have prooves of your claim .its not only you most of people like you when can't answer then abuse

sorry, if it projected any negative impression.. I was not saying YOU.. but saying WE.

 

[TopCat]

ts same as our indian nighbers dreaming there peoples in 2020 2030 2040 please see today see what we achive last few years and can you please provide some sold info what is that magic stick you use next few years.

That is the main strength of BD economy as there is no magic stick to do that. The coming finance minister who was talking to an interview said it will take another 3/4 years to take 6.5% growth rate of Bangladesh to 8% growth rate and will take up to year 2017 to get this up and running in 10% growth and sustained.
We did not have a beautiful morning when we woke up see that 2/3% growth rate of an economy becomes in 8% pace and just booming.
Economy has to grow from within itself which can be sustainable and all the machinery within itself should coup with the growth. But this is an economic subject and a subject of my own interest.. dont want to bore you...

 

[Imran Khan]

its more then dreams i thing i weste my time

 

[z9-ec]

I must also mention that the Bangladesh economy has also shown tremendous resilience and is also set to grow 6-7% this year despite the global financial crunch which I must commend as an observer.

 

[BanglaBhoot]

What the hell is this? Why are we wasting our time comparing our economy and military with that of Pakistan? Our problem is with India and our military needs should be based on that assumption. If we develop military cooperation with Pakistan then Alhumdullilah and let the Indians worry about it. Why are you doing the worrying for the Indians?

I completely agree with you. We should rather learn from each other and protect our interests from common adversaries.

you can see this thread start from BD PAK releations and one of your guy move it on BD vs PAK

its not good
