How we Bangladeshis are successfully tilting the world balance on its head : because why not? :-)
First it was Bangladeshis crossing Mediterranean in droves leading to refuge crisis and finally UK's Brexit.
Second, crossing the US border from Mexico by Bangladeshies, leading to Trump's win through his promised wall, leading to the unbalanced world we are watching now.
Third, India's NCR and CAA wholly targeted to driving Bangladeshis out of India, leading to its corresponding social unrest and economic collapse.
And I can go with these on and on ...
BUT!
At least we don't have anything to do with this Coronavirus. Right? That was so relieving. Or so I thought, until --
News : The Coronavirus in Singapore is mostly occurring in Bangladeshi community in Singapore. 2 already infected. Out of total 19 quarantined in Singapore 10 are Bangladeshi.
And today's news : 8 more infected in Singapore, 2 of them Bangladeshi.
Remember that in the 70s and early 80s letters sent from abroad had to put "Bangladesh, India" in its address, as if BD is a part of India, otherwise those didn't reach BD as international post offices didn't know what Bangladesh is.
And when I visited India in early 90s, even the educated population in India couldn't figure out where Bangladesh is. We had to identify ourselves as "near Assam"... "Oh Assam, India? that we know" used to reply the others.
And now when US politicians want to attack their opposers, the first name that comes to their head is "Bangladesh".
Told you : দাবাইয়া রাখতে পারবা না। :-)
