Are you threatening me here?
btw, When did I ever say that India was an ally?
There is a difference between having common interests and being an ally.
Seems like you are doing exactly the same thing you are accusing me of.
No India is not going to be the next China but it will become a middle income in the late 2030s with an economy TWENTY TIMES that of Pakistan.
That is what matters and Pakistan may be forced to give up its claim to IOC Kashmir in return for economic benefits by trading with India.
Irrelevant.
Myanmar can obtain great economic benefits by normal relations with BD.
So much energy and agricultural exports and BD investments are up for grabs.
The ball is in their court.
BD is a quasi-dictatorship and so this is not relevant for it.
USA is just one of the "Big 3" countries that really matter for BD over the long term- USA, China and India.
I did not mean that your religion is the sole reason that you think the West Pakistanis committed genocide in BD against Hindus but more alluding to the fact that it may cloud your judgement due to emotional reasons, which is perfectly normal and understandable.
Anyway, by the time economic...
Who is this Chowdhury idiot and why is he against China assisting to solve this issue?
Hasina, sort this out with Chinese assistance asap as India cannot deliver due to the fact it is a compromise state with no strong central government.
If you need to wait till 2024 till after the "elections"...
I am going to look at a few metrics here to show why BD and Pakistan cannot be compared in IT:
1. Broadband download Speed 2022:
BD - 35 Mb/s
Pakistan - Pakistan 10 Mb/s
2. DataCentres
Pakistan National - Tier 3
BD National - Tier 4 and was the 7th largest in the world when built in 2022...
Actually I was wrong as it does not include hardware.
BD does not play on S Asian levels anymore and definitely not with Pakistan that has not had more than 3.5% average annual per capita growth since independence.

Dude those are official figures.
That is probably just services but BD also counts hardware and classes them as ICT.
Like I say best not to compare with BD that targets 5 billion US dollars by 2025 and 20 billion by 2031. I wish you guys well and if you can get to 10 billion by 2030, then you...
No one is crying here dude.
BD does not need Pakistan but Pakistan will definitely need BD.
Most BD'shis care little whether Pakistan apologies for its war crimes in 1971. Current government likes to play politics.
Economic stress will force a full and unconditional apology from Pakistan.
I am guessing that you are Hindu.
Yes some may argue that they tried to commit genocide against the Hindu population of BD but that was mainly due to the fact that they saw Hindus as their political enemies and being against West Pakistani rule. In fact Muslims in BD were also sick of being...
IT exports were 1.4 billion US dollars at the end of last fiscal(June 2022) and they have been growing 35-40% a year average since 2009. It grew nearly 100% just in the last fiscal from a year before!
The industry expects 5 billion US dollars by 2025 and 20 billion US dollars by 2031. No...
Pointless thread.
