Who said that bangladesh has become prosperous then malaysiya, indonesia or thailand??? Why these countries are coming into discussion. Discussion is not even with India and china but with West bengal and NE India with that of Bangladesh. Without knowledge please do not put your rubbish here. We all know where we are lagging and where do we need improvement. This is not only with Bangladesh but also with India and Pakistan.
Some portion of India has done some development but most portion of east india are dirt poor and one of the most poorest in the world. Majority of Indians who live below poverty line (37%) are from east India with virtually no industry in that region.
Yeah, instead I wasn't actually addressing you
And this thread doesn't have anything to do with per capita income or living standards of Bangladesh vs. India. Why you bring this up in almost every thread?
India is a large country, with a huge and a diverse population of over 1 billion. It take time for everyone to reap the rewards of economic growth. Just because the NE regions are relatively poor, don't mean we should look down upon them.
And for your information, West Bengal is doing pretty well compared to before. But yes, there are still problems and challenges, every country does.
Even though there has been considerable GDP growth in Bangladesh, some things just don't add up. There were reports that GDP per capita in Bangladesh crossed $750 in 2010 from $676 in 2009.
What's odd about those figures is that a per capita income of $750 for the 2010 year and $ 676 for the 2009 year gives an annual growth rate of 11 percent for per capita income. This is pure fantasy!
It also implies that total GDP must have grown by around 14 percent (roughly, 11 percent plus a population growth of around 3 percent). This is fairy story. The GDP growth figure given in the report itself is 5.5 percent. The nunber crunchers should look into their numbers again!
They can't even come up with a simple table in which per capita income, and other important figures for all the cities and districts in Bangladesh are listed!
zaheer.triple.es23 is a troll anyways. Why give trolls so much attention?
who said ? NE has tourism industry and music industry. they are happier than both BD and rest of india
