We have been hearing many India-produced fables of supplying BD with hundreds of megawatts of power. But, we are not taking chance. We are building our own power plants. Moreover, India as well as Bd want NE power to come to BD. How many decades from now, I just do not know.

I think, Cultural Minister Asaduzzaman Noor aims to sell Bangladeshi products to Indian audience. A compromise will be reached when the Indian cable operators reduce their fees to the level of BD operators and BD entertainment products reach Indian audience.

In this forum I am not affiliated with any of the stupid political parties of Bangladesh. I do not care if the cat is black or white if it can catch mouse.

We are talking here about the historical events. It is not about to establish identity. Like in every society in the older days people from dry and parched land moved towards the lands of green with ample food. This is how stock of the population changed a bit or two here and there. The same...

All people know about the progress in BD because they eat better food and they wear better clothes. Indians must be living in their self-styled dream land full of honey and milk. They can rest assured no one pole vaults to their dirt-poor country. Come to BD and see how we are getting rid of...

Forget about India's GDP data in dollars, average people live in much poorer condition than Bangladesh. Pakistani average living standard is higher than BD's. Visit those countries and you will see the reality. However, I must agree that India is much higher in technology than both BD and...

Other than the Indian NE, Bhutan is the only nearby country that can supply BD (good quality) boulders and stones which are available in abundance in that country. BD people will certainly love Bhutanese boulders and will shun Indian sub-standard goods. But, who knows after failing to influence...

As far as I know, inflation is deducted from the Nominal GDP in order to calculate the actual GDP. The title news just says the current per capita income is $1188. It is certainly the real income and not the nominal one. Purchasing Power Parity or PPP has different explanation. Please read the...

I hope, somehow the reserve remains at the $20b level. A higher concentration of dollar will cause the Taka to shoot up. I wish the private/public sectosr use the reserve to by and stock raw materials and crude oil.
