@M. Emad I seriously think sheikh hasina should make you BD finance minister due to your knowledge about intricacies of BD economy. Maybe that way you can also help BD economy finally get bigger than Pakistan as well as West Bengal Economy combined.

And external debt is close to $70 billions & potentially could go up to $105 billions by the time current administration leave the office. $20 billions doesn't impress me. If Pak default, lenders would freeze the funds. What would impress me, when governance get clean out & export grows. Bangladesh is exporting more than Pakistan and their current account deficit is much better than Pakistan.

@Kp - I'm a pakistani & I definitely want to know how they are doing. We always competing with India, why not Bangladesh. Bangladesh has less resources and have same issue with government & corruption but they are doing much better than us. Let's get our act together and do better for the nation or else we will look good only in fictional stories not in reality. It is sad when textile industrial moving their work to Bangladesh due to electric shortage. Think about that....
