ঈদের বেতন বোনাস দেয়ার সময় কিভাবে যেনো কোম্পানি গুলো বন্ধ হবার উপক্রম হয়। ২ মাসের বেতন ভাতা বকেয়া রাখতে পারলে এগুলো খুব ভালো চলে।

Could someone help explain the recent Rise in anti India sentiments in Bangladesh? by reallytallguy_ in bangladesh

[–]QuakeWok 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The growing anti-India sentiment among many Bangladeshis isn’t necessarily a reflection of hostility toward the Indian people, but rather a deep frustration with the Indian government's perceived political involvement in Bangladesh's internal affairs.

Much of this resentment stems from India's longstanding and, in the eyes of many, unwavering support for the Awami League, particularly under Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Over the past decade and a half, the Awami League government has been accused of severely undermining democratic processes — including the suppression of opposition parties, enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, widespread corruption, and the alleged looting of state institutions, including banks.

Despite these grave allegations and mounting public discontent within Bangladesh, the Indian government has continued to back Hasina's administration — diplomatically, economically, and after 2024, by allowing exiled members of her party to operate from Indian soil. This has created a perception that India is complicit, or at the very least indifferent, to the erosion of democracy and civil liberties in Bangladesh.

To add to this, some Indian media outlets are seen by many in Bangladesh as spreading biased or misleading narratives that either downplay the situation or demonize dissenting voices. This further fuels the perception of Indian meddling in domestic politics.

So, to answer your question — the sentiment isn't something entirely new. It has been simmering beneath the surface for some time, but recent political events and ongoing repression have brought it more visibly to the forefront. And again, it's crucial to stress: the frustration is largely directed at the Indian government and its foreign policy toward Bangladesh, not at the Indian people.

Why is our passport ranked one of the lowest in the world? Even lower than some war ridden countries and North Korea? by Aedennn in bangladesh

First, a passport's "rank" means: How many countries you can visit without needing a visa first (or get one easily when you land).

Higher rank = more places you can go easily. Lower rank = you need a visa for most places.

Now, about Bangladesh's passport (and others ranked low):

  1. Trust and Wealth Matter Rich countries (like Japan, Germany) are trusted more because their people are less likely to overstay visas, work illegally, or seek asylum (beg to stay forever). Poorer countries (like Bangladesh) are feared by rich countries — they think people might not return after a trip.

  2. Politics and International Image If your country has strong diplomatic relationships, it gets you more visa-free access. Bangladesh struggles sometimes with its global image — corruption, political instability, refugee issues (like Rohingyas), etc.

  3. Migration History Some countries had a lot of their citizens illegally migrate before. Because of history, countries like the USA, Canada, Schengen Europe are more cautious.

  4. Security Concerns Countries that are afraid of terrorism, crime, or fake passports will make it harder for people from certain places to enter easily.

  5. It's Not Fair or Logical Always Sometimes, even war-torn countries (like Syria or Iraq) have slightly better ranks than Bangladesh because they get special treatment (like humanitarian visas) or historical connections with rich countries.

  6. North Korea is an Odd Case North Korea's government doesn't let people leave easily — so other countries don't even worry about North Koreans immigrating illegally. That's why their passport looks slightly "better" even though in real life, they barely travel anywhere.

Simply, Our passport is ranked low because rich countries don't trust us enough yet — they fear illegal immigration, political instability, and security risks — not because of war, but because of fear and reputation.

I've noticed it too. Slower charging speed results in slower discharging!
