This clearly gives you away. You are not a Muslim for sure. Anyway, I am a Muslim first, Bangladeshi close second, British third.

As a Muslim Bangladeshi, my aligience is to Islam first and Bangladesh a close second. The existing Hindus of Bangladesh have a place in the country but we should not in any way whatsoever be influenced by Hindu India. And if Bangladeshi Hindus align with India, then they need to be kicked out...

I agree. I think we Bangladeshis should realise we are a big country in our own right, growing at 6% a year, and may even overtake the Pakistani GDP within a few years, so we should not feel we need to live in the shadows of anyone. We could become a relatively big player on the world stage as a...

You are probably a Bangladeshi Hindu. I agree that we should not mistreat the Hindus in Bangladesh because, as humans, we should not mistreat another human. Full stop. However, we should not allow any more Hindus in the country. The ones already in Bangladesh should have the same rights as the...

Khair, I see where you're coming from but let us Bangladeshis worry about ourselves. We cannot take the burden of other Muslims on our shoulders. Bangladesh is a poor country as it is, we need to worry about ourselves before meddling in the affairs of others. You are not Bangladeshi. No...

It hasn't proved a disaster for Bangladesh. Bangladesh got its own country out of the independence, so how could that have been a disaster? We should thank Allah that we have our own country instead of having to live under Hindus. A few of you you here are either Hindu Bengalis pretending to be...

Even so. We are Bangladeshi now. We have our own culture, own language, etc. Are you really Bangladeshi? The partition of 1947 was the best thing that could have happened. Muslims of the Subcontinent have their own countries now, otherwise they would be living under Hindus.

We don't want anything to do with India. Why can't they just leave us alone? Why do they want to kill us just because we are Muslims?

Any Chinese investments in Bangladesh should be no strings attached. In the US and the UK, there is a growing resentment that so many key industries and even private residences in affluent neighbourhoods are now owned by foreigners, like Chinese, Russians, Arabs, in the case of the UK you can...

Most of the money sent over to accounts in India would be people in the current Hasina government, and others loyal to her. This is what I like about us Sylheties, we despise India with a passion which doesn't seem to be the case with those in Dhaka. We should never have anything to do with India.

I don't even live in or around Brick Lane. ASEAN is for Cinese people countries, and that's what it was always intended to be. Don't be a moron. Don't try to gatecrash an organisation you are not welcome. Its not for Bangladesh to join. So even though Britain has not done well out of joining the...

We are neither Indian nor Chinese stooges. In real life we don't even interact with either of them, even in the West where we have a chance to. We don't even interact with Bengali Indians.

Just look what happened to the UK. Being a member of the EU means they have had a flood of people from other EU countries. And there is nothing they can do about it as they have integrated too deep into the the EU political and economic union.

You don't understand the impacts of joining such groups. The economic gains are often negative but the political pressure that can be exerted on Bangladesh by member countries could be immense in comparison. Y Joining ASEN could be a disastrous. In the future there will want to build road links...

I don't agree with that. I believe a nation should be home mostly to people of the same ethnicity, people who share the same culture, language, genetics, and so on. You can see how multiculturalism bring societies down. Look what's happening to the UK and the U.S, and also many European...

China should lend us some subs, surface-to-air missiles, missile defence systems, fighter planes, so and so forth. We will use it to lay India to ruin.

The reason why Pakistan was able to dominate Bangladesh between 1947 and 1971 was a remnant of British rule in Bengal. The Bengali Brahmins aligned with the British to ensure Bangladeshi Muslims couldn't be educated. And this happened for two hundred years. So when independence came in 1947 and...

Not to worry. China is light years ahead of India in development.

You are right, Bangladesh has made a lot of progress over the last 10-15 years. I think our GDP is most likely around the $200bn figure now. Bangladesh breaking away from Pakistan, and forming its own nation, was the best thing that could have happened. However, all this will be wasted if we, as...

Since when is India our friend? The current govt. might be on good terms with them but the average person in Bangladesh isn't. Bangladeshis have never had good relations with India. Besides India, Bangladesh is neutral towards all other countries. These figures have to be taken with big pinch...
