The COVID-19 pandemic hit us at a time when anthropogenic climate change is threatening to destabilise our lives.
“Per capita income is the income that is not seen by mass people but built on a few people.”
There are bright sparks in all corners of the economy, according to the provisional GDP figures for fiscal 2021-22, which do not show a hint of a pandemic hangover when others are still plodding along.
Bangladesh’s economy has grown 7.25 per cent in the outgoing fiscal year of 2021-22, powered by an expansion of manufacturing activities, according to the provisional data of Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS).
Over the last two decades, Bangladesh has achieved significant economic progress, epitomised by the fact that the country’s GDP, according to the World Bank, grew more than six-fold in real terms from $53.37 billion in 2000 to $324.24 billion in 2020.
After a downturn due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Bangladesh’s economy has been trying to get back on track and has succeeded in some cases.
Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal today said the GDP growth of the country would be higher than the government's estimate, not only the World Bank's projection.
The Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) has said today that Bangladesh’s GDP growth will be no more than 2.5 percent this fiscal year, and that poverty will soar by 35 percent.
Around 0.2 per cent to 0.4 per cent of Bangladesh’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate may be lost due to Covid-19 outbreak, forecasts Asian Development Bank.
