    Bangladesh Orders Four Ships from China in Fleet Expansion Effort

    Dude, maybe you are referring to people such as myself who have mentioned that high-FDI kills economic growth as seen from multiple examples.? You seem confused as you seem to think that people that are against FDI are also against domestic industrial support by definition. You have spent a...

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    Dude, I am stating facts and corrected you when you tried to claim some kind of equivalence between BD and Pakistan. BD economy is powering ahead at 6-7% per capita growth a year using its own internal resources - low FDI and so using its domestic companies. Pakistan is barely growing at all...

    Bangladesh Orders Four Ships from China in Fleet Expansion Effort

    No you misunderstood me. BD lacks cash and that is the reason why it cannot invest enough to build up its shipbuilding industry. Things may be different this decade as the country is richer now. Shipbuilding industry has still grown 3x in terms of revenue in last 10 years and so still making...

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    No they don’t. Pakistani and Indian manufacturers are assemblers on the whole. BD sells TVs and other appliances in developed markets like Europe and USA. Even Walton’s 4K display panels for their TVs are designed in-house. No comparison at all.

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    The big difference is that BD's Walton both designs and builds nearly everything. It's TVs have only the SoC and the Adroid OS that is imported - everthing else is designed inhouse. Walton is such a large manufacturer of compressors that it even supplies the Turks who put them in their...

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    These other brands do not have a presence in the TV market in the west. I just see Hisense and now Walton coming in. The West and India will squeeze Chinese companies but BD will retain full access to all their markets - that is why Walton could realistically be one of the big players in the...

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    BD always surprises on the economic front. The big worldwide battle on the mid-tier home electronics front this decade is likely to be between China's Hisense and BD's Walton.

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    Who said anything is easy? Indian market will be the one to watch for sure as when the FTA comes into play, then BD can really start competing with the Korean assemblers in that huge and growing market.

    Bangladesh Orders Four Ships from China in Fleet Expansion Effort

    Like I already said my friend, BD is nothing like the rest of South Asia. Once you start seeing BD more like an East Asian economy then you can more accurately work out its true potential. Economic growth for 2023 could easily hit 7% even in these difficult economic times. I see BD and China...

    Bangladesh electronics giant Walton to take part in 'Consumer Electronics Show (CES)-2023' at Las Vegas

    TVs and Fridges they can be in top 5-6 I think as these are their strongest sectors. Walton has started breaking into the Western markets already and they already sell TVs under their own brand names in countries like Ireland and Croatia. More are likely to follow very soon. It will be...

    Bangladesh Orders Four Ships from China in Fleet Expansion Effort

    Actually it can at the lower end - ships smaller than 15,000 tonnes. What it needs is proper government support and huge investments to make bigger ships. The industry grew in the 2000s but then got stuck at the same level in the 2010s.

    Test run on Padma Bridge rail link held

    The most interesting thing here is that BD fund contribution is now 50% when it used to be around half this just 5 years ago. BD should look to totally fund all it's own infrastructure by 2030. By building these kinds of economically valuable infrastructure with it's own funds then BD...

    Test run on Padma Bridge rail link held

    India extends ADD on jute products from Bangladesh, Nepal for 5 years

    Once India gets to around 30 billion US dollars of exports to BD then the growth would radically slow down as then it's exports would saturate the BD market. Most of it's exports are agricultural products, raw materials, energy and manufactured goods. China would provide stiff competition in...

    India extends ADD on jute products from Bangladesh, Nepal for 5 years

    Someone opened a thread about something as insignificant as this! BD exports to India are growing at 50-100% per annum and will cross 3 billion US dollars this year and may potentially surpass the USA by 2030 to become BD's biggest export market. Always look at the big picture as focusing on...

    Bangladesh now world’s 35th largest economy, to be 20th largest economy by 2037

    Dude this is not BD projecting but what all the experts in the field are projecting. BD throughout history has always been an anomaly in the region as it stood out as being much more technologically advanced and richer. If India can at least stay within 1-2 % points of BD growth up till 2037...
