Becoming a developed country by 2041.

[Nilgiri]

What makes this guy so unhappy?

@madokafc @LA se Karachi


I started reporting you.. Hope you will not survive much

Anyone that drags in India first to compare with BD (like post 10) will be fact checked judiciously.

Rest can be the usual troll fest that I ignore now.

.....I mean, there is a third possibility, where it ends up being a permanent Indian puppet, which I think it highly likely.

Why you Pakistanis are so concerned about whether BD will become Indian puppet or not? This is a common topic among Pakistani regarding BD.Pakistan's raison-d'etre is to oppose India at any cost.Plus you have big territorial issue(Kashmir) with India which remain unsettled.So you are deadlock with fight with India.Why do you expect Bangladesh or any other muslim country will see India through the Pakistani lens? India helped us to achieve independence and we are close neighbor.Friendly,co-operative relation with them will help us both.If this mean 'puppet of India' to you then we are happy about being puppet of India.

These people are insane. Gulf countries have a good relation with India as well. But only Bangladesh having good relation(which is not that good anyway) with India becomes a puppet in their eyes...I could say some things which would get in the nerves of them but I think mods will come here soon to clear things up. So, I'd rather not.

You have started reporting me? Stupid Bengali. Know your place. Don't you people blame Pakistan for all your ills 24/7? Why do you come on a Pakistani forum to badmouth our country? Such extreme desperation. Stop convincing us that you are the next superpower.

Your shoddy countrymen come on our forum to ridicule our country. We are going to return the favor. A taste of your own medicine. Now stop crying like a baby and remain on topic. If I think and say that BD doesn't have the ability to become another Taiwan I'll say exactly that. Try stopping me if you can. Fool.

LOL You are not another Taiwan. Stop kidding yourself.

I reported you again

Irony is that,they always scream about puppet...puppet..but don't know,even the real puppet of India are living a far better,happier life than Pakistan.Bhutan is a tiny land locked country totally dependent on India.So Bhutan outsourced it's defence and foreign affairs to India.Still they live a far better life than a Pakistani.If being a puppet of India was such a hellish thing,we would not have seen a peaceful Bhutan.

Bangladesh is a country,hundred times larger than Bhutan in terms of population and economy.We are not dependent on India for anything.Indian geo-strategic adversary China is our largest trade and defence partner.We have far far more closer relation with China than India.We will mantain good relation with India for our own interest.There are water sharing dispute with India which can be settled through negotiation.Creating unnecessary hostility will not bear any fruit.What we need is to acquire a strong diplomatic position vis-a-vis to India or any other countries.That's why we need skillful diplomats as well as a strong economy and military.We need a strong military, not because we want to create hostility with India or Myanmar,but to strengthen our negotiating position vis-a-vis with other countries.

I reported you again

Ignore cry babies. I've reported as well.

First ged rid of your LDC status and then think of becoming developed nation

 

[Michael Corleone]

First get out of LDC status before you dream about becoming a developed country.

This was discussed before... we're still in that zone just as a measure of safety... ppp has gone up compared to others in the same list... growth is high too... you don't have to have a headache for us. Go build some toilets first and come back.

Try to survive. That is enough of a dream and goal for a country like BD. Stop trying to become another India which thinks it is the next superpower.

We don't have to worry about survival.... we can feed our population if the crops fail for the next couple of years before we have to go out and buy... we are not in a contest with Pakistan either for nukes... our goal is to become educated, rich and happy population. Trying to survive is something that suits your countrymen, bomb blast here and there. I hope my friend usama makes it and is well.

BD can never become Taiwan. BD has nothing on offer. The US has showered Taiwan with resources due to political reasons. They don't love the Taiwanese. BD doesn't even have any political value. Also, you don't have a high tech industry base or highly educated and skilled manpower. BD will remain a low end supplier for rich countries. Let's be real here.

It is one thing to set targets and goals based on your strengths and weaknesses, but an entirely different thing ton pretend you are can become something when in reality you cannot.

I'm comparing BD with Taiwan because BD is headed in the same direction ie: a manufacturing based economy.

Yes Taiwan did receive significant resources from US but BD is not internationally isolated like Taiwan, they can make up for resources with international trade.

BD now has China that Taiwan never had. Chinese are investing many tens of billions of dollars into BD's infrastructure and they have opened up their massive(and growing) market to all of BD's goods.

BD never claimed that it is next Taiwan.

The goal of 2041 is to become a middle-income country like say Malaysia and Turkey reached in the mid-2000s.
Ignore the "developed" tag as that is just a technical definition.

Now, can BD become a middle-income country by 2041? Well it currently has GDP/Capita PPP at over 4,600 US dollars and this is growing at over 6% a year now. BD's economy is currently being hampered by the lack of infrastructure, even by S Asian standards, but BD will receive 24 billion US dollars from China and 4.5 billion dollars from India over the next 5-10 years to remedy this situation.

So, unless BD engages in a major war or huge natural calamity occurs, then BD will be 2041 become a middle-income country like Turkey or Malaysia reached in the mid-2000s.

This is very interesting.

I was under the impression that apart from Chittagong Hill Tracts and the Sundarbans, that all of BD is very heavily populated.

I can see a few districts on the South Coast that are lightly populated by BD's standards, and so these should be able to absorb a lot of BD's growing population in the future.

Mere survival is a thing more apt to the condition of Pakistan.We have left pass that situation long ago.

Not only security,their economy is barely surviving by taking breathing space from IMF and world bank.Their Import is two and a half times more than export! Huge 30 billion dollar trade gap which even remittance(19 billion) can't overcome.So foreign debts are pilling up very rapidly which is already huge.Economy is growing 5 percent this years much due to CPEC construction work and infusion of Chinese debt money.But CPEC may turn out to be a white elephant project far exceeding the need of China or Pakistan.Chinese will always find sea route more convenient than treacherous 7000 km long motorway running through desert,mountain,Himalayas,Tibetan plateau.Moreover land based transport is 20 times more costly than maritime transport.


Pakistan's industrial growth merely 3.5 percent which doesn't show any promise of rapid industrialization.Our Industrial growth rate is 11 percent.
Bangladesh’s growth 7.11pc riding on industries
http://www.thedailystar.net/business/bangladeshs-growth-71pc-riding-industries-1304122


Their Gross capital formation(GCF) is merely 15 percent of GDP.We are unhappy with our 29 percent.To develop as rapidly as China,it should be around 40 percent.Interestingly,in 1966 Our 's GCF was mere 9 percent while Pakistan's 16 percent.This indicate only one thing, capital from East Pakistan was diverted to West Pakistan for economic growth.After separation in 1971,Pakistan stagnated in this regard while we picked up from the bottom.

Many can point, we also taking huge credit recently from China,India or World Bank.But the thing is, we are taking credit from a position of strength.These credit were given by the enthusiastic countries themselves to modernize our infrastructure.This is not the case with Pakistan,which is taking loan to meet day to day survival of economy.

Our credit line is more like an investment tbh.

Stupid Bengali. Know your place.

@The Eagle do something about your friend before I open my mouth again.... this time it's going to be so bad you'll have to ban my ip to try stopping me from using this website.

 

[rajdhani express]

Bangladesh certainly has the potential. It will soon replace Pakistan and will become the 2nd biggest economy of S.Asia. My guess is in the next 2 years.
