Yeah, media only reports the negative aspects of Bangladesh but NEVER talks about our positive sides.

There was a famous personality from Bangladesh that said if solarcells where 50% cheaper or something, most people in the country would have their own solarcells or at least communities. How is the energysituation there?

Dhakaiya · March 10th, 2007, 04:44 PM

Electricity is lacking to be honest. Its OK in the posh urban areas but in the hingier parts of the metropolitans and the rural areas, loadshedding of 2-3 hours everyday is common. Steps have been taken to solve the crisis however. A few billion dollars have already been allocated to the sector. Richer farmers use their own electricity from solar cells in rural Bangladesh.

Wow, I have never seen pics of Dhaka, and it looks very nice, the Louis Kahn building is very nice as well.

The 2nd pic is one of the campus mosques of DU. The Central Mosque of DU is larger and more beautiful. The 3rd pic is of suburban Dhaka, not on the main area but pretty nice
