A concerned Bangladeshi from Purdue University, USA

Why is it like this? Why do people have this view? This is because our country is not being portrayed to the world as an emerging developing country, it's hard to imagine that people actually think that bullock carts are still running in the cities. Any Bangladeshi website I go to or any Bangladeshi book or anything related to Bangladesh, the main pictures presented in those are rice fields or congestion pictures, or pictures of small kids of the village without any clothe on.

Our media is not focusing our country in the right manner. This is providing the people of the world with a total misconception about our beloved country. The media and all others should know about this and try to change the way Bangladesh is being portrayed. I definitely think that Bangladesh is developing day by day, so we should be proud of the country and show it to the world and not stay clipped to the pictures which show signs of emptiness in the country and the poverty of the country. More of city life should be portrayed rather than villages and crops and cultivation. This is misguiding the whole world and giving them a false idea about our country.
