IAF Chief to visit Bangladesh next week

[scholseys]

We are living in a free country and no one can force women for any thing ...... Not even with their dress



India is not a country of single religion, we have worlds third largest muslim population more than your entire
And no one is forcing any one

Yes good job emulating your former colonial masters.

"coming from a citizen of a nation that still has it's colonial hangover....in this case you have taken all the bad things from your colonial masters but let all the good cultures go. Openly wearing bikini is not your indian culture."
plz define a colonial hangover ? in our culture we as a nation within our constitution provides the right of freedom in which a girl or a boy can wear something he/she wants .

question is not about what you can wear or what you can't, the topic is modesty, which your people has forgotten.

 

[TalkToMe:D]

Yes good job emulating your former colonial masters.

Well I was keeping of this thread,but what are you, Aliens? dropped from heaven after Independence?

 

[Ammyy]

when an indian is rattled by facts he resorts to name calling.

Thts why you are not able to answer... why BDR is not doing any thing with illegal trade?

Where is the official figure for your "water" claim ??

No he must be of middle eastern ancestry

I though before 1947 you are also part of British rule and after 1947 to 71......... do I need to tell your history

Second that. This year in military parade there were a lot indian officers with their wives wearing sleeveless blouse made me mad... I hated it.....

So I get it you got problem with sleeveless blouse.. now were you expecting them to be wearing burka??

 

[TalkToMe:D]

yes but we dont have the hangover



sleeveless blouse inside one's home is one's personal business.

Great now changing the meaning, do you mean you are the saints and Indians,the world, the solar system, the galaxy or as a whole the Universe is the evil, with exception of not counting those who have the same faith and background as you do or wish to do?

Something tells me that this is going to turn into a troll war.

 

[Abingdonboy]

In a recent exercise, special forces of the two countries had held an exercise in Bangladesh and have also started holding staff-level talks

Can anyone give any more info (pics would be cool) of this ex? IMO BD SOFs could stand to learn A LOT from Indian SOFs.

 

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

I am curious, will he offer BD to buy Tejas?

Tejas is not operational in IAF, so no chance for export in the current decade.

Your problem, simple & pure. Wives of Indian army officers would be aware of protocol laid out for them, the fact it does not meet with your approval is irrelevant. You can continue hating, no cure is about to be found for that anytime soon.

 

[wild_fire1979]

do you trouble understanding english? where in my post have i mentioned burqa? sleeveless is not modest, you will never see hillary rodham clinton, michelle bachman or sarah palin wearing sleeveless in any event.

Umm... Who is now having a colonial hangover?

For one, you are using your own yardstick to define and judge culture. Coming from a family who have served in the army, army follows protocol to the T. Usually dress code is strictly enforced when the individual is there in an official capacity. IA would need to get past BD Army the dress code that will be deemed acceptable when attending a formal event. Its not negotiable.

In case the BD army felt that the IA family was offending then simply by wearing a sleeveless blouse it would have been made known before hand in case of a dress code enforcement.

I remember that I had to eat dinner in the Indian Army Mess Lobby for not wearing a collared shirt, while my family sat in the dining room. So yeah, IA takes dress code very seriously.

Coming back to your point of culture, imposing your own culture on others is not acting "cultured", embracing others is a sign of maturity and culture.

IAF chief visiting BD is simply a sign of changing ties and South Asian collaboration. If you feel so strongly against it, why not launch a party, win an election and change the policy. Its easy to stand on the side and proclaim the "animal-that-shall-not-be-named" is ****** than actually jumping in the ***** and wrestling it.

Skirts aren't considered modest in Bangladeshi culture. Follow the country's country's norms when you visit the country, its called having ettiquacy and respect. But sleveless in no culture is decency at a state function.
