If I am old, are you about to be launched from the womb? Good that you applaud your politicians. Maybe intelligence is dawning!

A commotion in any Army would get any govt nervy. As far as the US is concerned, it is in the US interest to ensure things are never 'comfortable' for Bangladesh since Bangladesh being too close to China would not be in the US interest, given that the US wants to maintain her naval supremacy...

The Stooge (1952) Sam Robertson: [Referring to Ted Rogers] Tell me the truth, Miss Regan, do you honestly think he's human? Miss Regan, Robertson's Secretary: I've heard people bet both ways.

So, the Army is the sole custodians of morals?! Why not have the army running the country instead of this bickering façade of a democracy that is held at ransom by the two political female leaders?

Advantage who? Whose land? Bickering over land over which none cared except as points on the map!

If India followed the US way, then there would be no jihadis around! If opportunities are laid bare for jihadis, then they will take it. India is an 'land of opportunities"!!:P What's new?

BD should not sign the deal. Let India collapse! :rofl:

But Gaddafi paid the money!

It maybe worthwhile to note that there are quite a few "stooges" across Bangladesh's political spectrum. It is interesting to note that there is also the Narashimha Rao - Khaleda Zia 1992 agreement to settle the enclave issue.

I can't find that post, but somewhere one BD poster lamented that the Border realignment was a poor deal as far as BD was concerned since BD was losing more territory. It maybe worthwhile for the same BD poster to note that India would be losing 111 enclaves within BD and gaining 51 enclaves...

One of the way to reduce the trade deficit is through jute products, basically bales, shopping bags, takeaway bags etc. Plastic bags are banned and hence in quite a few cities in India they are using think cloth bags for takeaways and shopping. Likewise, the use of plastic bales are reducing...

Demography should matter, given the importance of the 'ummah' that all Muslims are made to believe will come one day! Religion apparently is a great elixir that overcomes the rational!

I find it interesting to note that BD Army officers can be chucked out as if they were some labour in an MNC!! In Armies around the world the procedure for dismissal is very elaborate and is not that easy to implement on political whims! Does the same not apply to BD army? BD Army can...

BD maybe making the best quality of apparel, but it will take a whole lot of advertisement and a campaign to make it acceptable given that foreign (western brands) are making a great splash on the Indian market. Currently, the BD clothes are the smuggled ones that are sold on footpaths and...

Absolutely correct a surmise!

The Army is not being used against the Maoists. A Brigade minus is establishing a training camp and that is about all. With areas getting urbanised, one of the few areas that are there for training (and it means doing military manoeuvres and note merely squad base training) is in MP and the...

clever chap. collect the moolah from China and then scare the living hell out of China by calling in US warships!

Greek and Esperanto!

And when India offered assistance to modernise the gauge, MBI Munshi and friends cried foul and claimed it as a conspiracy. such mindset will only pull back BD into the stoneage.
