'Pakistan leadership can learn many lessons from Bangladesh'

Err, BD has savage Myanmar next door and so BD has rubbish neoighbours as well.

Pakistan should eat humble pie and see what it can learn from BD as whatever it has been doing clearly is not working!

Myanmar is nothing military wise and India is allied with Bangladesh. The two situations are not even remotely comparable.
However yes Pakistan can learn from Bangladesh.
 
.
Have a single party autocracy and no democracy for stability is the only lesson we can learn from Bangladesh and it's a good one
 
. .
you know fragile ego of pakistanis is hurt...even though this country has lost but still!

Yes that is of course understood. But most participants in that loss have passed on, it has been fifty years.

People should look to the future, not the past.

Myanmar is pretty rubbish neighbour to have, although they are not a military threat.

Think of more than 1 million refugees and no real trade relations.

If Myanmar was half-human then BD could have done great agricultural and energy trade with them. A proposal was made over a decade ago in that respect which they did not take up.

My post was to compare Aghanistan with Myanmar and there is comparison there.


As for India, since you brought them up, BD has had to lift it's economic strength as otherwise India would still be treating it like dirt. You need to provide something to get something back.

At the end of the day, you need to deal with the neighbours you have as best you can.

You are a trouble maker!

Always posting Hinduvta propaganda.

You should be banned.

You are one sad and pathetic person.
Idiot don’t tag or quote me on anything. I have no time to pay attention to your blabbering moron. If you don’t like any post move to next one. This is published in Pakistani newspaper just for your info.

'Pakistan leadership can learn many lessons from Bangladesh'​

Dhaka August 04, 02:10 AM UNB NEWS - UNB NEWS

Hasina’s leadership lauded for economic transformation​


Bangladesh has experienced significant economic transformation over the years, which can be attributed to its leadership, reads an article published in The Express Tribune.

Pakistan’s leadership can learn many lessons from Bangladesh’s experience, but the main takeaway should be that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina prioritised economic growth, which is crucial for both defence and democracy, reads the article.

Sahibzada Riaz Noor in his article mentioned Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina inaugurated the Padma Bridge recently and declared it a ‘symbol of pride and capacity’.

As early as 1992, Sheikh Hasina was involved in the economic issues and plans for Bangladesh, according to the article titled "Takeaways from Bangladesh’s leadership." She undertook the task of balancing economic policies with political implications.

Sheikh Hasina learnt from other Asian countries whose economic success was based upon four pillars: political stability, social development, trade liberalisation with export-led growth and fiscal restraint, reads the article.

During a conference, when an economist began informing her about the benefits of trade liberalisation, Sheikh Hasina quipped, “you don’t have to convince me about trade liberalisation.

When I was living with my physicist husband in the Italian city of Trieste on the Yugoslavian border, I watched the border being opened three times a week and people travelling across from both sides, purchasing goods and return.”

This demonstrates that Sheikh Hasina was assiduously focused on economics rather than other considerations that politicians are attracted to, Riaz Noor mentioned in his article.

Even though between 1971 to 2009, Bangladesh had hiccups in accountability campaigns and military rule, since 2009, the army has taken the back seat, he said. Bangladesh has seen less frequent derailment of civilian governments and experienced little legitimisation and delegitimization of governments.

Despite having little experience in governance, the Prime Minister possessed visionary acuity and conviction that economic progress was the only way to alleviate poverty in the country, reads the article.

Bangladesh has become one of the fastest-growing economies in the world and back in 1970, the country was 75% poorer compared to Pakistan but now it is 45% richer, the article reads.

In 1970, it had 10 million more mouths to feed but now its population is 170 million compared to Pakistan’s 230 million, according to the article.

In 2021, Bangladesh’s exports were $47 billion while Pakistan’s exports were $28 billion. The income per capita in Bangladesh is $2,227 compared to Pakistan’s $1,543.

In 2022, its gross domestic product (GDP) is $411 billion compared to the $347 billion in Pakistan.

The annual inflation rate is 6% compared to Pakistan’s previous 12-15%, which has now risen to 21% and is expected to further increase.

Also, the Bangladeshi taka is much stronger compared to the Pakistani rupee, reads the article.

Importantly, Bangladesh has a strong literacy rate with high female participation in the economy, it reads.

In Pakistan, political parties have remained interested in personal gains, according to the article.

The repeated manipulation of the democratic process has stymied the growth of strong, democratic, and non-dynastic parties, it reads.
It is worth recognising that economic growth is closely tied with political stability, rule of law, strong civilian institutions, and participatory democracy, the article reads.


Are you kidding our traitor generals are masters of manipulation and straight face lieing so it should be other way round.

You mentioned the 1 million figure, now multiply that ten fold and then count 40 years. The only comparison here is a very loose one i.e. there is a refugee crisis, but it's magnitude is simply much smaller.
Of course India was brought up, as it is now a even more hostile power with more resources than Pakistan, and this face off continues till this day since partition.

Pakistan has far more land area and resources than BD has - like hydroelectric power as one example.

My point is that very few countries are really that advantaged/disadvantged than others.

Blaming neighbours etc. just prevents you from moving forwards in life.

Each country has to deal with the neighbours that it has and BD has not been extremely lucky in that point as India used to be a very bad neighbour in decades past.

Has Pakistan's population grown faster than that of BD after 1971? :unsure:

Yes it has more resources but as a young nation it had much more to deal with in history that other nations who had similar timelines. Resources can't help much when they fail to be utilised, that is admittedly much to do with the poor leadership, but also a great deal to do with the region it was in.

There are things Bangladesh does better than Pakistan.

But in the Pakistani hierarchy, there are those who never forgave Bangladesh for declaring independence.

STFU your country is a shit hole of epic proportions, go back from UK and take a walk through any part of your cities and see for yourself

Tired of hearing bunch of cringe whiny little slum dogs talking shit from Thier dumps no matter how many times you see your own realities but still talk, talk and more talking

F off

They should take back Thier 3 million Bangalis who came after 71, it's crazy how they're everywhere illegally, 1000 miles away from Pakistan too

But instead of doing anything for them (forget that you put em in airplane so they can go back Bangladeshi government refused to take em in) - they just keep talking
Afghans are our people atleast

Myanmar is nothing military wise and India is allied with Bangladesh. The two situations are not even remotely comparable.
However yes Pakistan can learn from Bangladesh.
Yeah ofcourse
Like How to be someone's mistress and provide steady supply of prostitutes to Indians

Dude, your post is more emotional than logical.

BD economy is probably the strongest in S Asia now, depending on how you define it.

Don’t get mad that BD’s decades of efforts in economy is finally paying off.
