Get a load of the presentation from Dhaka North City Corporation about our present Dhaka and the promised future. Ignore the tacky music and political propaganda.

I dug the public toilet comment (at 4:40) from some guy 'Unnoto-maner (high-grade) bathroom kora hoisey'. LOL

Lots of tall promises, but I like Anisul Huq, regardless of political affiliation. He may be actually able to pull off some of these...
