Okay it's done, now back to begging substandard vaccines from the Chinese.

Amnesty says it never claimed list was 'NSO Pegasus Spyware List'

Amnesty is saying they were very clear from the start that the list was *not* a list of NSO spying targets. But their tweets were not clear about that at all.

Yeah jealous of India because Indians are poorer than us.

There were three Bangladeshi companies that developed vaccines within first quarter of 2020. One already went to human trial. Is this all you have, to boast on the world's Pharma Supa Pawa, like your Chaiwala says?

Please - the world has already seen your dead floating down the river, dung-bathers, people banging on pots and pans and chanting mantras to "scare off" Corona.

Center of Science your country is not. Maybe Pseudo-Science.

Why don’t you use your vaccines then? Who is making them? Walton ???

your Darji PM has vaccinated 5 million only, while we are vaccinating more than 5 million in one day!

Yeah jealous of India because Indians are poorer than us.

Yes it is largest economy in real terms. But when China overtakes USA in nominal terms will be a headache for USA because USD is their own currency which means that in USD terms china overtook US Economy.

Doubt over GDP growth not illogical

Bangladesh began a trend way back to inflate the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate.

Bangladesh began a trend way back to inflate the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate.

It started during the tenure of the immediate past planning minister. The World Bank does not accept the growth due to lack of its credibility.

Mustafizur said Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) recently unveiled its provisional data recording 5.24 per cent GDP growth in the FY20, which does not reflect the country’s real economic scenery.

CPD’s research director Khondoker Golam Moazzem said the poverty rate may rise to 35 per cent in the country due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The bureau has also delayed releasing the provisional GDP growth rate for the outgoing financial year 2020-21 although it has announced that the gross national income per capita has increased to $2,227 in the year from $2,064 in FY20.

Zahid Hussain exclaimed how the BBS could calculate the GNI per capita without calculating the GDP growth rate.

GDP decided first, calculations done later

Questions have been raised about the competence of BBS. There have also been allegations of political interference in modifying and fabricating data and information generated by BBS

en.prothomalo.com

There have also been allegations of political interference in modifying and fabricating data and information generated by BBS. Riti Ibrahim, former secretary of the statistics and information management department of the planning ministry, spoke on the issue. Jahangir Shah transcribed her deliberation.

I saw at the beginning of my career that it is decided beforehand of how much GDP growth will be announced to the public. Later this was somehow fixed by calculating backwards.

Mr. Finance Minister, balance the sum please

The experts considered the GDP growth a tall tale, especially because of the 'magic' in the first eight and half months of the fiscal year that apparently upturned all the negative effects on an economy that had almost come to a halt in the last three and half months.

en.prothomalo.com

As it is, the World Bank and IMF (International Monetary Fund) indirectly accuses all governments of Bangladesh of data doctoring. For long, World Bank, IMF and many other UN organisations do not consider the government-announced GDP growth as reliable. It is general knowledge that local and foreign institutions think other ‘vital statistics’ the BBS publishes are also increased and decreased at will. This doubt is not without basis. There are several instances of such manipulations:

1. The government shows the total population of Bangladesh as less than actual. As a result, the population growth rate has been decreased to 1.3 per cent. According to UNFPA, the rate is 1.42 per cent.

2. The per capita GDP could be increased artificially if the total nominal GDP is deducted by the ‘smaller number of population’. Recently, the government has claimed that per capita income of Bangladesh has risen from $1909 to $2064 on 30 June 2020.

3. The rate of inflation is shown less so that the real per capita GDP could be increased while calculating real GDP from the nominal GDP.

4. The government inflates the literacy rate, which the UNDP does not think credible enough for the Human Development Index.

The government further said export revenue in that fiscal was 25 per cent less than target. The amount was $6.86 billion less than the previous year. The import expenditure also declined but a lot less than the export earnings. Then by what magic did all these sector-wise disasters not affect the GDP growth?

(How to have 5% GDP growth in an ''export-oriented economy'' during a pandemic when exports are decreasing )

The think-tank Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD), in an online press conference, claimed that according to their calculations, the GDP growth rate of Bangladesh in 2019-20 fiscal was 2.5 per cent. According to them, the government’s declaration of GDP growth rate as 5.24 per cent has turned it into a ‘political number’, which was unwarranted.

Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics lags behind in stats

Economists and research organisations said Bangladesh's GDP calculation did not reflect the actual economic fallout of COVID-19 pandemic. That is why they questioned the growth rate as well as the competence of the bureau of statistics

en.prothomalo.com

As a result, though the country suffered a big blow because of coronavirus in the last quarter of the last fiscal year, the actual picture was not reflected in its estimation of GDP growth.

Estimation of GDP in Bangladesh needs a reform

Over the past decade, growth rate of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been at the centre of attention of economic policy discourse in Bangladesh. However, Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) has also been emphasising that qualitative and distributive aspects of GDP growth are no less important t

www.thefinancialexpress.com.bd

DO GDP ESTIMATES CONSIDER REAL TIME CREDIBLE DATA:

To understand this paradox, one would need the estimation methodology and data sources used for GDP estimation. As a matter of fact, other than industries sector (except for construction) and crop sector, GDP estimates for majority of the sectors do not consider real time credible data. Indeed, more than half of the provisional GDP estimates are not based on credible real time data.

This is also reflected when the variations of sectoral GDP growth rates are examined. A simple standard deviation test for sectoral GDP growth rates shows that growth rate of services sector was by far the most stable. It may not be due to the resilience of the subsectors; rather it originated from the weaknesses in the estimation process.

There is a serious need to take urgent steps to address the weaknesses in the data for estimating a credible GDP growth. A number of surveys will need to be conducted on a regular basis. For example: (i) Annual Establishment & Institution Survey (AEIS); (ii) Private commercial mechanized transport survey; (iii) Survey of Private Education Services in Bangladesh; (iv)Survey of Private Health Establishments; (v) Survey of Non-profit Institutions Serving Households; (vi) Farm Forest Surveys. These surveys have not been conducted over the last decade. There is a need to improve data quality from a number of government agencies-- for example, Livestock Department, Directorate of Fisheries etc.
