@Khan_21 You Know wat, when i asked Bangladeshis here if you guys are progressing so fast why your cement, oil, electricity consumption/Production, is more than half of pakistan. their answer will be look at our geneder equality, look at terrorism index look at HDI index we are still better than pakistan.
Bec its weird for me if you more develop these thing shows how much actually your country is progressing.
When we look at china they are on top in these consumptions. same goes to any develop country. To b honest i dont believe on their country data they sucks in fact. Now i am totaly agree @Nilgiri that their Govt. is only showing wrond numbers just to show how much they are progressing.
Even if you ask them what new projects currently going on in Bangaldesh except Padma bridge or 4-5 more bigger project which are in pipeline there is nothing on ground.
When they talk about discrimination in pakistan that Isd is getting more national share while other provinces are sacrficing. But thet forgot that except in Dhaka there is nothing in other states. Most of people come to dhaka even for basic work. Thats why Dhaka sucks in so much traffic jam. but nope there is no discrimination is here. At the end they will start again from 1971 how they start from zero. You know its like their life born from 1971 before that they were weraing leafe clothese and houses were madeup of mud.

For any country, I have a rule now.... always look up its corruption rating in CPI index.
If it is both terrible rank and also stagnant in ranking, take every statistic (esp with low vetting from any 3rd party) to be suspect at best (for default, till proven otherwise with enough evidence).
India and Pakistan are both ranked pretty low in CPI ranking (just like most developing countries in general), but both are not as badly ranked as BD and are improving for the better at least. Same cannot be said about BD.
Thats not to say every number coming out of BD is wrong...it is very variable (and dependent on vetting exposure because of the high corruption and political gain tied into this). Their demographic data is generally good (its notoriously difficult to fake census counting without cascading many nasty problems) and their direct economic data is ok (again really hard to fake given the globalised economy)...but their mortality and health data are very suspect among others.
Thats also why their nominal data for GDP outperforms their PPP (which has far more global standardisation and vetting within the ICP framework). Nominal GDP gets a boost from having high % exposure to export industries....but PPP is only really boosted by actual high consumption per capita in volumes of all goods. Its a fundamental difference I have seen maybe 1 or 2 members from BD able to understand. Rest go into stuck turntable mode .
