Bhai aamar.... inspirationer kotha ke bolche? Why should BD take inspiration from a fellow 3rd world developing country like India. Our income per capita is 1800 dollars against your 1500. Not much. Same ways, we look at USA/ Canada, etc and even though many on this site deny it, Indians do admire Chinese for there recent development.
I agree with you. BD's inspiration SHOULD be developed countries. Again, what you missed my point. Tell me one country with whom a common bangladeshi can communicate easily, culturally more similar (dressing and all, in fact I was amazed to witness Bangladeshi women wear sarees same as West Bengal), etc. etc.
US/UK still call you guys brown people from Indian subcontinent, SE Asian countries are deporting so many Bangladeshi and with the recent fiasco, it is clear that they feel threatened, I can go on and on. Point is, except for our religion and to some extent our recent past, we are the same people since 1000s of years.
