Once you dig bit deeper past just say corruption perception index and Cato freedom index, you will find some more richer veins that prove what I have been saying all along. This thread will serve as collection to use as needed:

Exhibit A:
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/nationalaccount/workshops/2011/bangkok/ESCAP-115.PDF
Assessment of the capacity of Bangladesh Statistical System to produce the core set of economic statistics July 2011
The assessment further found that although the BSS has the basic capacity to produce most of the statistics within the core set, it has limited capacity to produce many of these statistics in accordance with relevant international standards and good practices.
o The current legal mandate of the BBS is limited and does not comprehensively and clearly specify the role of the BBS including its role in the coordination of statistical activities in the country, limiting is ability to fully fulfil its function.
o The current limited financial and staff resources place a constraint on the BSS and in particular the BBS by limiting its capacity to collect survey data on sub-annual basis in a timely manner, compile economic statistics with recommended frequency and in accordance with latest international standards and good practices.
o The current recruitment policy affects the ability to hire new staff and results in significant number of unfilled positions further limiting the capacity of BSS to fulfil its function.
o The limited training opportunities at the national level, limit the ability of BSS to effectively and efficiently develop the statistical skills of its new staff as well as improve the skills of existing staff.
o The lack of necessary survey data an in particular sub-annual data and limited access to administrative data affect the frequency and quality of economic statistics.
o The BBS business register is in the early stages of development and at present is not sufficient to be used for all economic surveys.
o The BSS statistical information systems (and in particular those of BBS) are in need of modernization as the existing systems inhibit transfer of data and efficient compilation and dissemination of statistics.
o The lack of use of quality assurance framework and modern data editing techniques affects the quality and timeliness of statistics.

Exhibit D:

Bangladesh didn't validate the ESCAP assessment based on IMF/World Bank ROSC and DQAF (check the annex)...which is the first step in addressing fundamental entrenched institutional problems.

Exhibit E:
http://www.dhakatribune.com/bangladesh/2017/04/27/country-facing-major-data-gaps-monitoring-sdgs/
Bangladesh is facing a considerable data gap for monitoring Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as statistics on over two-thirds of indicators are either partially available or not available at all, reveals a study.
========
Depending on interest on this subject I will do an analysis of exactly which parts of BBS data chain are vulnerable to political propaganda purposes given the methodology (which BD has scored quite poorly and is slipping w.r.t World Bank capacity index) used. For example a big one is the claimed BD population pyramid structure w.r.t reported mortality (where so much underlying data has quite large data gaps - now starting to be reported in BD itself refer to Exhibit E).
