Bangladesh to become the 2nd biggest economy in SA

[Yogi]

Again epic fail... but yes based on 1995 base year may be.

But for now even with present 1995 base year gdp UP and bihar where more then 25% of the Indian lives has lower per capita gdp.

Do u have comprehension problems...

I have clearly stated that except for 5-6 states all other 22-23 states have higher standards of living vis a vis BD ''WHERE MAJORITY OF INDIA LIVES''i.e. around 70% of Population

my answer was in respect to ur post stating that EXCEPT FOR FEW STATES BD WINS HANDS DOWN...

N plz come with real facts n not speculation reports if u wanna argue...

I must admit you have done quite a comprehensive comparison, and while I cannot verify all of these estimates , The one I could easily check was Life Expectancy, where contrary to your estimates India had higher life expectancy than Bangladesh( 69.something compared to 60) The source is 2011 CIA list-https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2102.html
As for the environmental stats , I daresay they would naturally be in BD's favor as large industrialization of development is yet to take place in BD. Once it has, you will find that these records are similar to Indian ones......
Due to constraints of limited time, and the immense material that you have presented I cannot check and debate everything.............
But due to the examples I have provided and the fact that indian HDI is still higher, I do doubt your statistics on the subject of their authencity

Well guys, let me ask you to look at Bangladesh from a different angle.

In all parameter BD was at least twice as bad as India in 70's but now we already caught you up. The speed of improvement is faster than both India and PK. So its just a matter of time when BD will surpass India if already not in some of the parameter. PEACE

You are wrong Bangladesh was better then India in 1970 in all category including per capita GDP. You can bring the example of 1971 war which had destroyed all the infrastructure and economic base and 24 years of oppression under Pakistan.

Without human development no country can develop. Infrastructure can be built any time but not human development. Just look at Shanghai in 1990 and now...

But that idiot cant understand some infra can not change the life style of the poor and bring development to them.

For your info in 1970 Bangladesh's per capita GDP was also higher then China.

 

[miss]

ok, bangladesh is better than India, Happy?

and btw, large glass and concrete building is not a symbol of peoples prosperity , nor is just money. prosperity is has many components both tangible and intangible.
I dont think people consider mental stress when talking about prosperty or environemental weel being , or freedom or democracy. in china you may have all the glass and stell buildings, but ask them why they cant have a brother or sister. japan may be the 2nd richest, but they are becoming the oldest and cant revert. singapore has the highest per capita but are some of the most stressed.
the way we measure development is flawed

No it was not. Thats why BD was categorized as LDC and India and PK categorized as developing country. There were no incentive of being LDC that time and BD did not intentionally claimed itself as LDC.
