    The Bangladesh Development Update: Economy Progressing, but Below Potential

    Dude growth was small, not non-existent. Bangladesh barely grew 1% more than India, for last fiscal. And Indian growth has picked up. Also, West Bengal had over 14% nominal growth for last fiscal. Lets wait for the real data to come before claiming anything, and lets keep comparison in PPP.

    The Bangladesh Development Update: Economy Progressing, but Below Potential

    Now consider a large population that doesn't works (Children, dependents), consider a big percentage living below poverty (above 30% in some of the links I posted above), the higher incomes cancel out.
