Bangladesh to become $500b economy by 2026: StanChart

[UKBengali]

It is now 2021. Let us wait and see what happens during the years leading to 2026. The Standard Chartered Bank certainly is not forecasting something from the Bible.

BD economy is around 350 billion US dollars already and so the 500 billion US dollar figure is likely to be reached maybe in 2024-2025.

Actually, a person has to have a very good and wide heart to seek well of the entire mankind. We are just normal people. Some are Muslims and some are not. Usually, a person looks after the wellness of his nearest family.

Muslims are suffering not because they pray for other Muslims, but for not being properly educated in science and technologies.

I meant the ideology they follows. This impact their education grades too. They assume themselves superior than others. The whole day, they blabber "Muslims this, muslims that" like a parrot like others don't even exists or bunch of fools.
Muslims need to divert their minds towards read education.

You care about Muslims only even while you are praying for good.
This is racist and radical ideology you are following. That's why Muslims suffers wherever they go.

Black and white crime in the west is the same yet the majority of the news printed or shown on tv shows the majority of blacks as criminals, the same Media using the same tactics and only showing Muslims as the bad guys while ignoring the rest. I understand you will only buy into selective news feed as it benefits you, but don't worry about Muslims, we are doing just fine and progressing in the west and around the world at an impressive rate, but for obvious reasons, Muslim progress will not be shown by biased Media!!!


Mr @Falcon26, Rejected Pakistani politicians are fighting a dirty war where they don't care what happens to the country as long as they can get selected and put back in the chair for that reason they are using every and anybody that's for sale including high school drop out cha cha jee economist



Back to the Topic congratulations Bangladesh.

The problem is not Islam

The Best High School in Indonesia is Madrasah (Islamic School)

Best High Schools in Indonesia. The first one is MAN (Madrasah) INSAN CENDEKIA. Majority (70 %) of top 10 are state owned/ public school (free of charge). The rank is based on the nation wide test result (2020-2021) to get into state owned universities ( top and best universities in Indonesia )...

Go drink some cow pee and piss off.

Lmao Hindus are so educated that they live in slums

Pakistan being left in the dust. To understand why, watch this conversation

We were asian tigers in 1998 when nawaz sharif left then musharraf destroyed everything

In 2018 we were asian leopards but IK destroyed everything in few weeks

Damn you IK

Racist?

Which country doesn't work for the super rich.
England? America? Russia. They all are slaves of the super rich.
Pakistans problems is simple. Lawa and order. The issue of corruption was highlighted in jinnah 1st speech. West uses effective marking for its agenda. You could be super brilliant like China and if it doesn't suit the west they will become your enemy.

Law and order… Jinnah speech on corruption sounds a lot like Mujib after 71
Thing is Pakistan and Bangladesh fell behind for one reason and one reason only. The military. Keep them under leash and growth will follow

You care about Muslims only even while you are praying for good.

Nah. Muslims suffer for the bigotry of the non Muslims. Which is counterintuitive in trying to make Muslim live peacefully. You can’t ruin peoples life and expect them to live in peace.
beef fiasco in india is enough reasoning if you’re going to ask for one.
Guys GDP means squat if living conditions and quality of life cannot be improved. Bangladesh is far lagging behind in this when compared to countries like ukraine for example. Ukraine has a piss poor gdp size but much better living conditions and quality of life than bd.

But Bangladesh has also many Hindus, and many of the educated Hindus are working in the top govt posts. Also, many of the BD Hindus are successful in trade and business.

They also like to drink cow piss. They say it is most delicious. What are you going to do with them?

Whether a country is rich or not has nothing to do with its religious beliefs.
As long as there is a safe and stable society and the government invests heavily in education and infrastructure, the economy is bound to develop rapidly.
Pakistan's problem is the lack of security and stability.


Bangladesh's success lies not only in a secure and stable environment. Bangladeshi women have a higher status and can participate in more work, which has brought more productivity to Bangladeshi society.
Congratulations to Bangladeshis. I hope you can have a rich and successful country.

The IMF predicted a GDP of $561.9 by 2026 and a per capita of $3200. This was based on April 2021 projections. So before the 2nd wave took place, which had much more of an economic impact than the first.

This projection is perhaps more accurate, given the impact of the 2nd wave. Though it may also be a bit conservative.

It'll be a good achievement within the region. But nothing worth boasting about. It's a lot lower than what Vietnam and the even Philippines are right now today. And by 2026, Vietnam, which is predicted to grow slightly slower than BD, is predicted to have a per capita income of around $5500.

With regards to Pakistan, Imran Khan has made some positive moves. A gradual move away from the consumption-based economic bubble (which famously burst in 2017), and into manufacturing. Less emphasis on politically expedient (to win cheap votes) economic policies and stunts, more emphasis on the long term. It's a welcome change. However, there are a lot of fundamental underlying problems that need to be sorted out. And the solution doesn't have to be expensiive. Because Bangladesh started tackling them decades ago with very little resources.

1) Fix your dreadful education system. I don't care how many posh schools you have in Islamabad and Lahore. The overall picture is not a pretty one. Read ADB's report on your education system. It's pretty shocking.

2) Similar to (1), Pakistan has a shocking gender disparity in basic literacy, let alone education. The youth literacy rate (15-24) is 74%. But it's the gender disparity that's shocking. 80% male, 65% female. In Bangladesh, it's like 94% male and 96% female. This is why Bangladesh could utilize a much higher % of its population in the skilled and semi-skilled labour market. Bangladesh will end up eliminating illiteracy from its working-age population fairly soon. The next focus is education for a highly skilled workforce. Whether BAL mofo's can deliver on their bolshevik-like rhetoric is a separate matter. But at the least, Bangladesh sorted out the basics

3) Fix your urban-to-rural divide. Bangladesh prioritized bridging the urban-to-rural gap, at the expense of glamorizing some of its cities (or urban development in general). The rural-to-urban divide is one of the key barriers to growth, for developing countries

4) Have NGO's like BRAC, and be a lot more creative/innovative about sorting out your human development problem

5) Population control. The most backward village in Bangladesh has a lower fertility rate than metropolitan Islamabad

6) And get rid of the feudalistic system you have in place within your rural regions. Even East Pakistan got rid of feudalism before Bangladesh even existed. The feudal lords of your country literally benefit from the status quo, at the expense of everyone else

I agree with the 1, 2, 6, and oppose the 3, 4, 5.
In the early stage of industrialization, we should increase the gap between urban and rural areas, destroy the small-scale peasant economy, and let farmers enter cities to become workers.
We should be vigilant against non-governmental organizations at all times. They are the most vulnerable to foreign control. And they can do something harmful to national interests in the name of justice.
Never control the population. Chinese people are regretting the family planning policy. Don't repeat our mistakes. Population is the most important resource.
