Rising middle class in Bangladesh

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

1. Learn to write/speak in respectable way. No need to use offensive words, when the reality about India is well known worldwide, and clearly seen from many statistics and trip reports by people from all around the world. It is widely known what percentage of Indians have access to sanitation.

2. This counts as 'roads' in your regime's bogus annual 'official' tally.

In BD, even roads leading to tiny cities look like this

Nothing academic so far, not surprising though.

Why going away with official figures ?? ?

No wonder that India has the highest number of illiterates in the world.

1. Your regime's propaganda number-crunching to fool the illiterate and hungry masses can not fool the intelligent people around the world. That's why nobody believes in your regime's propaganda numbers.

2. This counts as 'roads' in your regime's bogus annual 'official' tally.

Sorry, what was that? Do you consider cooked up numbers by your regime 'academic' so much so that even if they contradict all evidence on the ground you would still believe them?

Once again telling you, these are village roads constructed under "Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (Prime Minister Village Road Program)"

I do not necessarily agree with you, but let's say you are correct. Does not it mean that the picture I posted is that of a "road" according to Indian regime's bogus statistics?

What does that tell you about Indian regime published official statistics?

Its absurd that someone has a problem if a BD member is proud of his country's achievement. We Asians from the subcontinent have this crab mentality where the only way we can prove ourselves better is by pulling the other down.

One should understand and appreciate the achievements of BD and their road to this success has not been easy. It is good that countries like BD can show the neighborhood the way to grow in spite of limited resources. It can be a progressive Islamic country which has invested in their people by way of woman empowerment and child education.

India should be happy that BD is doing well as a prosperous neighbor will always lead to good trade and commerce and this will lead to good bilateral relations. Also the Indian concerns on immigrants will be addressed as better economic situation in BD will dissuade its people migrate to India in search of employment.

KUDOS to BD and all the people who have made it happen success should be celebrated and we must learn from the failures.

Its shame for the Indian members to compare our cities with BD as we are a bigger country and have access to more resources same is when Chinese members rubs it in, so don’t do or say anything which you don’t want others to do to you.

The pictures posted by Banglar Lathai in post 141 are at least 5 - 6 years old.

1. The Metropolitan Mall is situated on the M.G road, the area has changed after the completion of the Gurgaon-Delhi metro line. Those who are from Gurgaon or those who have been to MG road can attest to that. Unfortunately I do not have picture of the exterior to show you as of now, but I will in a couple of days. As to your perception of hoardings and reality on the ground.
The interior

2. The second picture is of the UP link road. From the direction of the picture this is the entry point from Delhi to Noida and now the Yamuna expressway.

During the commonwealth games , this road was a part of the cycling event.

To show India in a poor light this is what you have to degrade yourself into, showing old pictures of India and comparing them with new pictures of Bangladesh.

Try harder.

You should be ashamed of writing like illiterate Kumbh Mela goers.

I am quoting one of your compatriots





These are your 'modern' buses

People often use these buses in BD for intercity travel

Unlike Indians, Bangladeshis do not claim that Bangladesh is a developed country, but Bangladeshis also know how far apart from reality is the bluster of Indians.

Lol!!!! Karnataka KSRC would have more volvo buses than entire BD!!!

From the company itself

This is one of the 'upscale' areas of your wealthiest city, your capital.


Look carefully at the difference between the advertisement hoardings and the reality on the ground.

Some of them are in denial about the reality, but do they ever really believe they can hide the reality from the rest of the world?

Can they deny this (taken from their most developed city, according to road and transport infrastructure)?

Can they deny this?

2004 pics????

you want to see the place now???

Gentlemen, this is a Bangladesh centric thread that starts with a nice article on the rise of middle class in that country. But, people here are talking about the quality of buses and stations. That is a diiferent chapter. We can discuss it in a separate thred. Now, I am posting a news with a video broadcast by AlJajeera that speaks of the rise of a huge group of middle class people in BD numbering 30 million. Note that the news is one year old and the middle class has more increased by this time.

Middle class fuels Bangladesh boom

With 30 million middle income earners keen to spend, nation's economy is thriving despite global slump.
Last Modified: 04 Sep 2011 11:48

Business in Bangladesh is booming despite the global slump as a thriving middle class's appetite for consumption boosts the country's economy.

Statistics show that 30 million people make up the middle income bracket; more than the population of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark combined.

Atiur Rahman, the governer of the Bangladesh Bank, told Al Jazeera: "In a decade or so we will be one of the 30 largest economies of the world, and one should keep that in mind. It is not the size of the country that matters, it's the population and it's a very entrepreneurial population, and there lies our strength."

Al Jazeera's Nicolas Haque reports from Dhaka.

'7. Mumbai Airport
A lack of food and shops open at night, “beyond disgusting” toilets, and poor air conditioning turns travellers off this airport.
"The heat and smell was ominous as soon as I left the plane," Amanda Hillis said.
“There is nothing to do at the Mumbai airport. There are no shops in the main part of the terminal. Chilled (sweated, actually) on a chair for about 10 hours...the seating area was rather dirty,” Laura P said.

Mumbai Airport!!

5. Delhi Airport
This airport has been described as being full of mosquitoes and birds, ******, crowded, has poor signage and frequent announcements that increase at night.
"Had to change in the toilet which made the one in Trainspotting look like the Ritz," Moray said.
"It was dirty, with all pervasive smell of sweet over powering phenyl which they use for disinfecting. The departure lounge has this odour mixed with that of cigarettes," Amit Mathur said.'

Dhaka airport!!

I am stunned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LED screen???

we also have roads like these..........

What about you??
