US- India Trade Deal and Bangladesh

[masum iqbal]

One of the reasons why USA and India are able to develop greater commercial ties is because of the highly developed IT infrastructure of India and the corporate culture of India which is closer to the US than anywhere else. US companies are more comfortable doing business in India because of the easy availability of English speakers and similar corporate culture. It is fairly obvious that India has been able to exploit the benefits of globalization because of its highly developed knowledge based infrastructure.
Bangladesh can easily mirror the success of India because the educational similarities of the two nations. Since we do have a very highly motivated young population that are also tech savvy, we can develop infrastructure in less time than India. And given the extent of business education in our country, it would be easier to develop corporate culture that is based on rewarding success and efficiency. We must be global in approach to both education and infrastructure. Only then can we attract sustainable foreign investment from all over the world.
