How Bangladeshis view Pakistanis today?

[coffee_cup]

We do have common amongst ourselves more than any other place on earth.
Food, culture, language, clothes, arts, music, sports and much more. 6 decades of messed up history is not going to erase centuries old bond no matter how much you deny.

Ok now seriously, food being common between Bangladeshis/Indians or Pakistanis/Indians? That would mean food being common between Hindus and Muslims (since India is 80% Hindu, whereas both Bangladesh & Pakistan are 80% - 98% Muslim).

Now you do realize that Muslim cuisine is very rich in meat (Beef, Mutton, Chicken etc. etc)?

How could that be common between say India/Pakistan or India/Bangladesh? Please elaborate.

Because last time I checked, Hindus don't eat meat in general and beef in particular.

Bengoli people are normally pro Pak and friendly and if they know you are Pukhtoon that normally gets you even more respect as many of them claim some connection to the geniune articles.

Really? Were pro pukhtoon? Wow i didn't know i was until you said so. Were is pukhtoon?

 

[longewala]

What! You've got to be kidding me. What do we have in common with any indian?

FOOD? No we have very little commonality in the food we eat or the way we prepare the dishes.

LANGUAGE? No we speak a different language, Bangali spoken in Bangladesh is different to bengali spoken in the rest of india, and that difference is widening each year. Forget any other indian languages....hindi, tamil, punjabi etc.

MUSIC? No we listen to music from all over the world, and local artists...not specific to india.

RELIGION? No, Bangladesh has a majority sunni muslim population with a minority hindu population of less the 1 in 10. India on the other hand has 8 in 10 hindu population and a nationalistic communal hindu government in power.
.

It always amuses me to hear about our "nationalistic communal hindu government" who won seats in areas with 30-50% muslim or christian population, who preside over a country where the "2 in10" enjoys equal rights to the majority hindus, with numerous christians, sikhs and muslims in important positions

Especially from someone whose own country reduced a large hindu minority to "less than 1 in 10", with no shame or regret.

Other than that, I would agree, Bangladeshis would see a lot more in common with muslims thousands of km away who murdered and raped millions of their country people than with the Hindus / muslims / sikhs who rescued them. It's a pity they don't stay in the hell-hole they chose instead of jumping over to the country with whom they have "nothing in common"

Your butt was hurt when we screwed you in Asia cup...your pm walked off in anger...when we beaten you in t20..again your butt was hurt by throwing stones and stopped people carrying pakistani flags...whenever I ask for a taxi if I m travelling I specifically ask for a bengladeshi driver cause I give all my loose change in tips. Since my childhood in karachi I saw most of the beggars were all bengalies not Biharis.

Last but not the least there are more Pakistanies in Britain then bengladeshis,...but guess what we Pakistanies have bigger heart and we welcome all the Muslim brothers with both hands I spite of knowing it that we will be back stabbed.

check you stats...

But where you live there is a thing called media who brainwashed you and show you that we Pakistanis are barbarian and on other hand shows you that india is supa powah :-D :-D :-D and yes i forgot to mentioned bollywood where one hindu is equal to 100 muslims. A slight hint sunny deol in border and film indian. :-D :-D mate we are humans and peace loving people kabhi ao nah Peshawar i will show you our hospitality. that's what you will see when you enter our province

Ok lets see how many communal riots have there been in Bangladesh compared to india, have Bangladeshi muslims murdered hindus on mass like happens to minorities in india? Which country has more minority MPs or ministers in government as a percentage of the population Bangladesh or india? Before you speak BS get your facts right.

All your points arent correct. BD Hindus and other minorities are really successful. But some Hindus are pro India so they like to migrate India so they ve reduced in number.

If you call me to choose between India Pakistan and Bangladesh. I will choose Bangladesh.
If you call me to choose between India Pakistan I will choose Pakistan. Why because I havent seen any war and pakistani evil. But our country suffered many times by Indian bully, I witnessed those. So for India negative feelings. But if I go to history Indian eastern side and BD is same. Today BD and India two different country.And dont try to fool us. Most Indian Hindus hate us but Pakistanis are polite in nature. Again we have many other countries to think.

They would still be if Bangladesh was still Pakistan.

It was back pre 1971, but all they got was security (prosperity, civil liberties, military and administrative participation and economic development) of the east lies in the west.

Have you had non muslim chief of military/ prime-ministers, Supreme court judges, presidents, etc?

Find an elder in Dhakka or Chittagong, who witnessed Pakistani Rule in East Pakistan and tell them the above.... you will be surprised by their response.

Present young generation is 65% Only some minorities have soft feelings for pak and india. For their parent's bad education. We dont really care about any other country. There are both pro india pak elders among us. Things are really exaggerated thats written.

 

[Green Arrow]

I have many Bengali friends in UK and most of them are pro Pakistani. With all the bitterness and tragedy in the past, it is time to move on.

I have seen the exaggeration account on quite few occasions, which has made me wonder quite often, that was just some hoax or insurgency support or exaggeration of genocide enough to cause a catastrophic civil war in nation that was carved out of India to become the Bastion of Islam, was pakistani nationalism so weak that, some misinformation by Indian and Western writers was enough for the collapse of Paksitan within 14 days?
''
It also makes me wonder about things General Tikka Khan and Lt Gen Niazi proclaimed like, we will change the "Nasl"(racial makeup ) of Bengalis, or I want the Land, not the people or the famous quirp by your commander of the state at the time, President Yahya Khan at the February conference said "Kill three million of them (Bangladeshis) and the rest will eat out of our hands."

Read a little bit of the Operation Searchlite, it will make you fall in love with Pakistan All over again...

I read those. But its 43 years. You are saying to hate which is past. I see Indians like to dig history so much. Im talking about present scenario.

The difference in our perspective is the time frame with which we view the dynamism of foreign policy, to me two decades are recent, and 1971 wasn't that far ago. The question we need to ask is how has Pakistan changed it's foreign policy from 1971, is it still maintaining the same security paradigms and regional discriminatory attitude that it possessed in 1971.

Again no hard feelings for any other countries. We have really less connection with Pakistan. But man to man Pakistanis are more friendly. But India is our enemy and friend same time with mixed feelings.

 

[tahsin]

Since when is India our friend? The current govt. might be on good terms with them but the average person in Bangladesh isn't. Bangladeshis have never had good relations with India. Besides India, Bangladesh is neutral towards all other countries.

It's on the same document

For White British households, median total wealth is £221,000.
❍ For Indian households it is £204,000.
❍ For Pakistani households it is £97,000.
❍ For Black Caribbean households it is £76,000.
❍ For other Asian Households it is £50,000.
❍ For Black African households it is £21,000.
❍ For Bangladeshi households it is £15,000

These figures have to be taken with big pinch of salt. Lot of Bangladeshis own restaurants and takeaways, which alone would make the average figure of £15k listed here very unrealistic. Unlike Indians here in the UK, many Bangladeshis come from less educated background. Most educated Bangladeshis prefer to stay back home. This means there is lot of catching up to do as the first generation quite often do menial jobs. Thirdly, quite a lot of Bangladeshis get into Islamic fundamentalism in their late teens and early twenties, usually at college/university. Two of my cousins are in the same boat. One graduated with a degree in mathematics from UCL while another is in his second year doing the same, at the same uni. The first has wasted tw years after graduation and now wants to move to the Middle East to study Islam while the other was almost brainwashed into joining ISIS. He wanted to go to Iraq/Syria via Turkey, but luckily, his parents confiscated the passport.

You understand this that BD cant be compared with India? BD is only 43 years. When first 20 years almost gone in vain without any democracy. From Pakistani traditions Muslims gone powerful in ruling sectors. Where Hindus are active in service sectors. There are certainly some non muslim supreme court judges. As India faced long dinasty rules we are also going through this. And how you are expecting non Muslim pm/military chief here where your country never had those? What our Bengali Hindus have in India. No pm no army regiment only a poster president and some army chief. I see Muslims are Kshatriya and Hindus are Brahmin. Its only for Bengal now dont start argument on this
