Bangladesh Economy

[BananaRepublic]

Bangladesh actual revenue for 2024-25 was $35bn and GDP $448bn.

Pakistan actual revenue for 2024-25 was $65bn and GDP $407bn.

Can anyone explain why Bangladesh cannot rise their revenue share of GDP and continue to present wild estimates for budget only to be corrected massively when actual data come? I though new govt will change it but looking at today budget doesn't seem to be the case.

If I remember correctly - Economist answered that question few years ago.

Bangladesh tackled feudalism quite brutally.

whilst Pakistan and India resemble medieval society.

Given wealth is concentrated in a few families in India and Pakistan - they fall under higher tax brackets.

Whilst wealth is spread very thinly in Bangladesh - large number either don’t qualify for tax or fall under low tax brackets.

Having said that, tax take has gone down under Yunus regime due to higher corruption.

And that is the source of pain for your cuckcutta masters! They lost their jomidari in east Bengal and are still crying about it.

Yunus improved a lot of things you Indian shills put in place to sabotage the country.

... Given wealth is concentrated in a few families in India and Pakistan - they fall under higher tax brackets. ...

Which few families?

Which few families?

It's an old trope! The 22 families who control all the wealth of Pakistan. The so called socialists of Bengal backed by their Indian masters were spewing this for the last 60 years.
