Bangladesh at bottom in Tax GDP ratio in the world.

Its quite normal for a fast growing economy to lag behind in tax collection. It's also known that low tax rates improve the growth of GDP.

So I'm not sure why, at this critical growth stage in BDs history, some forces are going on about tax collections.

BD is focusing on increasing exports, increasing production capacity, increasing employment and improving worker skills. All this will lead to more FDI, more jobs and ultimately more tax revenues.

The time to push on tax is once the economy has consolidated. Enemies of the nation want BD entangled in an internal tax quagmire at this time.
