So you are making a generic claim that Bangladeshi industries are better than Pakistani industries in the textile sector. Fine, you are free to make such a claim. But can you back it up with reasoning?

Raw materials, Pak has plenty, BD has plenty.
Labour, Pak has plenty, BD has plenty.
Expertize, no doubt both have sufficient technical & managerial expertize.
Market, both are eying the same markets and neither has a distinct advantage over the other.

So why would a Pakistani org invest in BD when it's own country can benefit from the investment?

Why will exporting textiles to the West from Pakistan cost them 13% more? Operational costs? No. Govt export duties, not these either. Then what?

read the bloody article mate.

The bedwear exporters witnessed a sharp decline in orders from European countries after the EU in March 2004 imposed a 13.1 per cent anti-dumping duty on imports from Pakistan, claiming the cheap Pakistani products were harming the local textile industries.
