Land prices in Dhaka have been going up about 30% annually for the last 3 years...so I guess investing in Land is the easiest way to make money here.

There you go then. Import LCD TVs legally and sell them.
As far as TV assembly goes -- Rangs is already setting up facilities to assemble LCD TV's. Walton Electronics already assembles LCD TV and also fridges.
Given where one finds LCD display material and other parts(Probably from Taiwanese or Chinese wholesalers) and given the right pricepoint -- assembly could be a lucrative prospect IMHO.
This is not as complicated as one thinks it is. Most electronic items are made with modular parts these days. So -- other than final testing, assembly is as simple as screwing together parts such as Display Unit, tuner block, outer casing etc.
Bangladesh market penetration of LCD TV and basic fridge (165 liter or say 6 cu.ft. size) is incredibly low. So there is plenty of prospect for market penetration there.
As far as garments export goes -- I know a few folks who import garments from Bangladesh but they are mostly doing small lots (1-2 container a month) of Knit T-shirts (imprinted) plus some polo shirts. But it remains to be seen whether they're making a killing. If they are -- then they aren't telling me

While there are some lesser known/popular brands of television and refrigerator made/assembled in Bangaldesh, such as Singer, Walton, how are they received? Do they sell well? From what I have seen folks there are very brand loyal and tend to identify to the well known ones ... Sony for television, Toyota for cars, etc.As far as TV assembly goes -- Rangs is already setting up facilities to assemble LCD TV's. Walton Electronics already assembles LCD TV and also fridges.

Yes, I also know of some people here (US) mostly in NY, and west coast who are dabbling in garment imports but nothing big ... like you said, a few containers at a time. My question is how do they market their goods? (I've never talked shop with these folks)
