    Bangladesh is a land of troubles: the water here is black, the traffic is insane, the people are poor, and the metro only goes one way; children don’t go to school, because they have to help their parents earn a living, and men sell their girlfriends to brothels. Bangladesh is also a place where ships from all over the world end their “life”, and where manual labor is so cheap that it is getting scary. 

    With all the problems of Bangladesh, will I be able to see anything good in this small country in South Asia? Let’s find out!

      Thanks for the honest review.
      We Bangladeshis feel the same way you felt there.
      No you never get used to it.
      Can you tell how can any country end up like this?
      The answer is no ruler of Bangladesh ever cared about the people here.

      Илья, очень люблю твои видео, но голосовой перевод что на русский на основном канале, что на английский здесь очень портит атмосферу. Голос озвучивающего громче основного фона, и вместо голосов людей, с которыми ты общаешься, интересных акцентов, интонаций, эмоций, гума окружаюющей обстановки – один и тот же голос как будто с дешевых дублированных сериалов… Неестественный, да еще и неумело пытающийся копировать то женский голос, то голос пожилого человека. Это очень плохо слушается 🙁 СУБТИТРЫ, Илья, только субтитры!!!

      as a Bangladeshi, I must say this is the best documentary film about my country,.. the problem with our people is we don't like to take responsibility and always love to blame government or someone else for our disorderly lifestyles and manners

      Although I am Indian but I must say that this man who is being entertained in Bangladesh and perhaps feel the joy of being born into 1st world , forget the contribution of the subcontinent to it's 1st world life , what are u in 1500 , don't worry we will catch in far future, but if god is true the price we pay will be extracted from u .
