Bangladesh has a troubled past, but it has been in a great position to grow dramatically in much the same way that its neighbour China has done in the recent past. Bangladesh is still a highly labour intensive market which makes it a great place to get T-shirts made, but a number of factors have made it painfully slow to develop beyond that. Could Bangladesh change things to become the next China?

But there is a long way to go if we want to compete with the big boys. What I disagree is that this video paints a very grim picture. Its not that bad.

As a regular viewer of EE and as a 21 year old Bangladeshi I confirm that, a lot of young people have given up the hope that we're going to see a real change in our lifetime, seeing the shear amount of corruption, pollution and chaos around us, most of the university students just want to leave this country anyhow by getting a scholarship abroad after undergraduate. And there's no doubt that we've been lied to about the growth vs inflation, the average Bangladeshi has to do very difficult maths when shopping for something as necessary as daily groceries now, and It's not an exaggeration, practically any Bangladeshi can relate.

@kaifalkawsery3260 Месяц назад

Well, I would just like to point out that abroad countries are also not having a fun time with inflation as the global pandemic is still affecting our world economy.

@tomkelly8827 Месяц назад

Something that I would say was overlooked here was about geography (I am from Canada so I don't know that much about other aspects of the country). Bangladesh looks like it has loads of natural harbours and really good water access. It is central to the population of the planet with China, India, SE Asia, Indonesia all nearby. So rather than taking resources up a river like the Mississippi, St Lawrence, Yellow or Yangtze, it would always be much easier to go and deliver raw materials to the Bangladesh coast, manufacture it there and then ship it out to the world. If it works for t-shirts, it can work for cars, ships, and every manufactured good. Lowering shipping costs is key to so many industries and Bangladesh is in a prime position to capitalize on that. They also have the man power to boot. It looks like a country full of great potential to me

Regarding 3:40 When talking about "life expectancy" it might be an idea to talk about the inefficiencies of the metric towards singular events, like natural desaster and short wars. In my humble opinion "life expectancy" is trying to measure the long-term quality of life. Singular type of events like the aformentioned don't seemt to fit this category very well, unless it's long term and recurring. You see this by the "life expectancy" goint smoothly back to the trend it was on before 1970, so the dip doesn't tell you much about the quality of life (which seems to have been unchanged afterwards), but the age and amount of people dying from that specific event. Might be an unnecessary overcomplicationg for the viewership though, as the metric is a statistically interesting approximation, due to the difficulties in measuring it.

Watching this video from Manila and thinking that, like Bangladesh, the Philippines really has a long way to go before it is living up to its potential. An English-speaking country with access to much of Asia, yet still relies heavily on OFWs (overseas foreign workers) to keep its economy afloat. Someday, the Philippines will live up to its potential, but not today.

The history lesson was very charitable to Pakistan. West Pakistan effectively sponsored a genocide during its occupation of East Pakistan and its war for independence. In attempting to break the Bengali desire for independence, Pakistan murdered hundreds of thousands and displaced tens of millions, targeting the most educated and productive citizens of Bangladesh. Effectively, Bangladesh started not with a "Brain Drain", but a "Brain Murder" that made it very difficult for it to develop after independence.

Bangladesh definitely has the potential to be an economic powerhouse, but replicating China's exact path might be tricky.

Also, US unequivocally supported Pakistan by sending a carrier with nuclear capability to deter India, only to be countered by Soviet Union. USA blundered by siding with a nation conducting genocide, and it should be known, accepted and apologised for.

As a Bangladeshi myself, I can safely say that the growth on paper is quite nice with an uneven wealth distribution. Dependancy on only a few Trades isn't gonna cut it in the long run. While there has been signs of diversification with bigger of Electronics and Mobile Phone brands setting up their plant here (As of now mostly assembly) , It's only catering to the local demand and missing out a potential to be another Vietnam , due to some of the policies taken. For example, in the handset industry, there are staged Vat from production to distribution (15% cumilitive addition) with already high duty. Plus the export is solely dependant on import. We have lower balance reserve now and and it could have been prevented if we had our industry to make raw materials for finished goods to be exported later on. While focusing on the industrial growth , we are putting the agriculture in the back seat despite our lands being quite ferilte , Thanks to being part of Ganges Delta. The agriculture production have been increased drastically since the independence. We have some great GI items that could have been properly capitalized for export. Plus Bangladesh these days export various stuffs including shrimps. As for the Human Labor, most of them are unskilled. While our neighboring countries train up and send skilled labors to the Middle east, here most people go as unskilled and as a result gets paid lesser than the rest. So in short, Improving the policies, promoting home grown industry and diversifying exports can actually benefit Bangladesh in the Long run. Only RMG and Remitannce from the Labor aboard Alone can't improve it.
