Bangla is spoken by millions abroad by Probashi Bengalis (Bengalis abroad) and non-Bengalis. In my observation a lot of Bengali youth of America have forgotten a lot of Bangla; they either speak Banglish (Bangla+English) or banga Bangla (broken Bangla).

HIGHER ECONOMIC TRAJECTORY
Bangladesh ready to rival Asia's mighty manufacturing hubs
By ERIC PRIDEAUX
Sure, the shipping distance from Japan to this sprawling industrial park might be great, and his trucks must sometimes compete with rickshaws and livestock on the crowded roads outside its walls.
But overall, Yasufumi Matsuo, executive director at Japanese electronic parts maker Op-Seed Co.'s factory in Chittagong, is happy with conditions at the Export Processing Zone here in Bangladesh's main port town, where local workers at his plant manufacture buttons and light-emitting diode displays used in vending machines assembled back in Japan.

"Arranged Marriages", the topic that gets a lot of Desi youths scared or tingling. In the US, UK, and in the rest of the Western countries, love marriages are more favored than arranged marriages. The youth of the West wants to be in charge of their own lives and they want to decide initially who they want to spend the rest of their lives with. But are arranged marriages all that bad? In my opinion no, they're not.

I always want to hear the view points of others weather their views are parallel or contradictory to mines. I found another article written by a desi, but this article deals with a Pakistani visiting Bangladesh. His visit doesn't deal with any business trips, or anything of that sort, he just went to Dhaka to see how Bangladesh is. Comments (4) | Views: 338 | E-mail |

One of the things that really bothers me is that Bangladeshis are split up in two groups mainly. The two groups are people who want change and the people who don't want change.
Whether you like or not Bangladesh has to change and it is changing as the years go by. My generation, the "Gen Y" are tired of the same old things in Bangladesh, the same old music, the same old lady in the political arena, and they will do whatever it takes to improve their lives.
Bengalis are considered to be the most conservative Desis in the whole Indian Subcontinent, and there's nothing wrong with that. However, whenever something new comes to the Bengali culture, Bengalis freak out and insult the new influence; and that needs to stop otherwise we will fall behind.
