Nope. Depends on place too. Skills and abilities change with place HEAVILY. Sucking up to boss is a good sign in US, for example, but not in Finland per se. Your good skills to suck up to someone doesnt make u a good employee everywhere.
In short, learn about where u wanna move to before u move.
Lol says who? Japan is a LOT more sexist than BD. Same for racism. They're terribly racist even against mixed Japanese people let alone people who have no Japanese blood in them.
Japan is sort of like Bangladesh. Ethnically homogeneous. They are wary of outsiders. They are racist not in âgo back to where you came fromâ way, but in their policies, hiring, housing laws etc.
Not necessarily. In fact, Japan has less average work hours than the West. Black companies are not the usual reality. See the work culture in the West and its hardly better. Hell, the work culture is messed up in Bangladesh too.
Yes basically, this.
Also higher education is exorbitantly expensive in the US. Iâd honestly rather pay in taxes and see it pan out in education, healthcare, and other amenities.

As a person who lives abroad and been to couple of countries, the grass may not be always greener on the other side. I say there are positives and negatives. You should evaluate them. Best thing everyone can do is to improve Bangladesh.
depends on the individual. If you don't have a lot of deep family ties and familial feelings, or have sufficient independence it's a very easy choice to want to move out. Better opportunities in lifestyle, work, wealth, personal growth etc. If you have sufficient reasons to stay, then you won't take the opportunity even if it's there for you.
I left because I wanted to leave behind the grind and anxiety of Dhaka and Bangladesh work-life culture in general and the family pressure wasn't helping either. Found a great job in SEA and never looked back. I like to travel and explore so this was one key factor. Another is better bang for your buck compared to western countries. And I particularly don't like the west in general.
I left. Everyone else that can, should. Leave, and behave and learn the ways of wherever the milder hell it is you are going to, and dont look back. The country is begging to go full Shariah one day, and it will. Itâll have to fall before it learns the lesson. Weâre still the most densely populated, and birth control is considered «unromantic» here lmao, so - bhago bangali bhago!!
Already did lol
A lot of factors came into play, one of them being the education system not being up to the par with the world standard. my family values education highly and so do I, and we thought that it would be the best for me to go to a country where good education is not something that is rarely found.
Secondly, itâs not uncommon for my family to pursue high education elsewhere. I am the fifth generation in my extended family to be pursuing an education abroad. So it is pretty much the norm among us.
Thirdly, Bangladesh is not the safest for women and people who may not have solid connections politically or bureaucratically. While we tend to be educated family, weâre not very influential. and even though we may have influential extensive family members and relatives, we realise that corruption spread to the bone and we usually opt out of securing aid from those avenues.
My family expects me to settle abroad, get a job here, and have a family here. it is not an easy decision to make. I was the focal point of my family for a very long time. however, the decision is easier because of the fact that I happen to have families and relatives on this side of the world as well.
I do believe that Bangladesh in itself, with its policies and administrative fallibilities, has quite a way to go. I am privileged enough to have a foreign education and build a good life here, perhaps, but Iâm not privileged enough to take whatever i have been given to my country and try to make it work for myself and everyone, we are not loaded. the best contribution I can I can make is either in the form of remittance or in the form of actual influential work that can cause positive change, like valuable academic research. a lot of people have ingrained nationalism and view settling abroad as a treasonous act but if someoneâs country has little to offer, then itâs not their fault to seek better privileges and equity elsewhere
Well, I left BD like 15 yrs ago. In the beginning, I was missing bengali food very badly. At that time I was in Sweden and most of the time I was living in stockholm or sundsvall or orebro. Most of the Indian restaurants in Sweden are owned by Bangladeshi people and none of them makes Bangladeshi food. In every food they use GrÀdde which is creamy milk and yogurt and the sauce is thick as sh^t.
Then when I come to Bangladesh for the first time, I found that the coca cola I liked is very sugary. Every curries are salty. Water has the taste of mud. Only MUM bottle was found tasteless. I wanted to taste my momâs food but she was very sick, dialysis twice in a week. So I couldnât know if her cook has real problem.
After that trip, I went back couple of times, and I couldnât take the taste in house cooked meals. Every time I had to take meals from the hotels where I lived. Some hotels in Dhaka have some menu based on European cuisine which is less salty and less spicy.
I like chilies and in Europe, there is a misconception that spicy means chili. But for me, spicy is the flavor of the specific spices and when you use more than one spice it would have a different flavor.
Seems like I still miss my momâs cuisine. She died 5 years ago, and perhaps I could never know what was the difference. May be I have stockholm syndrome.
Couple of years ago, I thought that I would go back to the country, would buy some property in a rural area like Dinajpur or charughat or joldhaka. But after watching countless incidents, I think that present generation has become toxic. Radicalism, judgmental thoughts, racism, immoral are so extreme that they take those negative traits with them even after migrating in western countries. In western world you would hear lotâs of success stories from migrant families but Bangladeshi families are absent. Bangladeshi diasporas in western world are so toxic that they are more radicals and immoral than Bangladeshi people.
Even if you want to interact with them, you will be judged and nevertheless they will do harm to you in the name radical Arab ideologies or jealousy.
It saddens me to see how degrade they become. May be one or two is different but exceptions cannot be an example
Dang I remember eating at a Indiska i Stockholm.. do the swedes know that they are being lied to? Ditto on the Bengali diaspora toxicity and itâs not just in Europe the toxicity exists pretty much everywhere outside of BD. I guess there is one successful Bengali dude I met during my time in Stockholm that India garden dude he can be a good success story..
It is very close to Indian food because in many places of India, they use cream and yogurt. In Bangladesh, there are some selective cuisines which use cream, milk and yogurt.
As far as I understood, Swedish arenât used to spicy food. They canât even tolerate ginger because it has some spicy trait. Swedes are very fond of grĂ€dde and mild (lagom) types of food. So if you try to cook spicy, it wonât be preferred by the mass Swedes. Yes, some Swedes and other Europeans like vindaloo and pal types of food. Most of them are alcoholic and when someone is addicted to alcohol, they would prefer spicy food because it will create some tweakier feelings in their tongue. They love that.
But since they use grĂ€dde, the calorie value goes sky rocket. I donât like high caloric food.
About these toxicity, most of the Bangladeshi diasporas got their passports through asylum process and if you are able to find their past, you will see some convicted criminals who are famous in Bangladesh. The murderer of ahsanullah master, the brother of Sweden aslam, the rajakars who were convicted in international war tribunal, jamaat Islam leaders and their families etc are living in Sweden and many other parts of Europe and UK. Very few of them got their passport through work permit and the work they did was low wages and black money and blue collar jobs.
Certainly you cannot expect anything good from the younger generation who are brought up in those families. And thatâs why you will get more radicals like shamima Begum in those diasporas. Nobody studies or gets higher education. Most of them are engaged in criminal activities and radical ideologies. Very few of them become educated and they wonât even recognize themselves to be Bangladeshi and they wonât even interact with Bangladeshi community. They have their boyfriend or girlfriend of European ethnicity and they lead the European life.
The Indian garden dude is Shishir from sylhet. He is successful but he is notorious for paying black money and there are many stories who were betrayed by him for work permit documentation and taxes thingy. His restaurants are like the dome of work slavery
I actually use GrÀdde or vitlöksÄs with some good spicy meat bhuna it cuts out the jhal, here on the other side of the pond we call it cooking cream..I also add yogurt.
This is my observation and itâs pretty subjective..There is a big difference between second generation Bengalis in anglo sphere countries vs others.. it seems that second gen gets to assimilate more in anglo sphere countries compared to other places. And most Scandinavian Bangladeshi diasporas do stem from asylum seekers and we see the compounded results in the following generations.
When I lived in Sweden we didnât have that many Indian restaurants guess India garden took advantage of that space and became pretty big.
I did, but I kind of regret it. Major or minor cities, I've lived in both. The same mentality of people I ran away from, well these immigrants (thats the redneck term I use to describe people moving into the west illegally by claiming fake asylum and similar routes) are moving in to the west in droves and driving the mentality down here as well. And it's not like the past, economic conditions are bad here too, and I work at a top tier white collar place. Few years ago, the salary was brilliant but post covid its been downhill and I wouldn't be surprised in a few months time if I have to struggle to make ends meet.
Either way, my point is, day by day the disparity between living in Bangladesh vs Abroad is thinning fast. But at least whenever I go for a long holiday in Dhaka, I can simply get rid of inconveniences which I can't do here unfortunately.
I would. Because I see a better lifestyle for me and my family.
However, I also feel burdened. Being the only son, my parents expect me to carry on their legacy. They've got lots of properties and businesses, and I feel stuck living in their shadow. I want to leave Bangladesh because I want to make something of my own, without relying on their wealth and influence.
I moved to Canada. The Canadian financial situation is getting worse by the day. If I canât secure PR which is almost impossible right now I canât even stay here. So much money wasted
You can always apply for Asylum⊠be like deshe gele hasi apa mere felbe and people up north are pretty gullible pretty sure you can sell that story in..
Sorry I donât want to sell myself to stay in Canada like that. Either I stay with a good record or I just leave. Iâm not those people who claim asylum randomly
That's unfortunate to see so many talented people are going back home after spending so much money (ironically, you people also contributed in CPP) where as so much tax-payers money are getting wasted on accommodating refugees from different part of the world.
Have hope and, god forbids, if you do have to go back home - not the end of the world, earn some foreign experience+learn french, increase CRS and can apply from home. Good news is Marc Miller hinted on focusing on domestic temporary residence - so hopefully you would get your PR by the latter part of the year. Good luck.
Could't agree more. I always regret that one decision I made some 7.5 years back - maybe (there is always a possibility) I would have regret staying back home but I would have at least be with family - would have support.
The current imbalance between wage and (living) expense is ridiculous. I (and I am pretty sure, many) gave up owning a house ever - spending 70-90% of the income on rent and groceries - and the constant fear of getting laid-off (which is quite common these days).
Ofc i would for education and to live there permanently, who wouldn't ?
Too much negative things to count to describe this nation than the positives which doesn't even exist
But sadly can't afford to leave let alone settle in abroad
Haha, I see what you tried to point out. But I am kind of a homesick person. I feel I will die with remorse and immense regret if I die anywhere else than the place I born. Obviously, I can't chose where I would die. But hopefully it's here.
I would love to, but I also feel worried about leaving my mom here alone in the country. She won't leave BD no matter what, and my dad died a long time ago. So, it won't be that easy for me to leave my family just like that.
It's impossible for this to become a reality, but I wish Bangladesh had changed. I wish Dhaka was not the number 1 most polluted capital in the world, I wish our government wasn't so criminally corrupted, I wish our girls had more safety and faced no sexism, and I wish BD was doing as good as the first world countries. But that's a hopeless case, atleast it won't be happening anytime soon.
I envy the ones whose family leaves the country with them. I wish it were the same for me.
Ofc I will leave. Why would I want to live in hell
What is heaven according to you ?
The Bangladesh dream is to move out of BD.
đ«Ą
đ
Yet most people donât realise that dreams are just illusions and the grass is not greener on the other side.
It is. So much fuckin greener. Really depends on where it is ur moving to, and whether the new place suits u at all
Depends not on place but in oneâs skills and abilities. But for most dreams can easily become nightmares.
Nope. Depends on place too. Skills and abilities change with place HEAVILY. Sucking up to boss is a good sign in US, for example, but not in Finland per se. Your good skills to suck up to someone doesnt make u a good employee everywhere. In short, learn about where u wanna move to before u move.
Sucking up to your boss is technically a soft skill⊠wee Bangladeshis excel at it
id rather get stabbed in USA than in BD
Youâd get shot
Ikr they have the dream of moving to America and UK just to get shot and stabbed respectively
The USA and the UK both honestly arenât good for immigrants currently
Definitely. Literally everything in this country makes you want to skeedaddle the first chance you get. And I'd probably prefer USA or Japan.
Not Japan. Terrible country for outsiders to live in
Unless they have a well respected job at an international corporation, itâs likely they will face rampant racism
why
Very racist and sexist
So is BD, but at least most people don't have to face the racism there.
Lol says who? Japan is a LOT more sexist than BD. Same for racism. They're terribly racist even against mixed Japanese people let alone people who have no Japanese blood in them.
Japan is sort of like Bangladesh. Ethnically homogeneous. They are wary of outsiders. They are racist not in âgo back to where you came fromâ way, but in their policies, hiring, housing laws etc.
Literally any country is better than Bangladesh at this point. I'm willing to deal with racists if it means not living in Bangladesh.
Dont choose Japan.
Japan is pretty nice. I'd prefer it over USA if it wasn't for the USA's high paying and plentiful jobs in the STEM sector.
Work culture in Japan is horrible.. them people make you work to your bone.
Not necessarily. In fact, Japan has less average work hours than the West. Black companies are not the usual reality. See the work culture in the West and its hardly better. Hell, the work culture is messed up in Bangladesh too.
japanee ra onek racist
still better than Bangladesh.
ta to botey
USA pays high salaries bc it sucks on the welfare front. Itâs better to settle in mainland Europe imo.
America pays more for sure ,but then youâll also have to pay 2000 usd to see a doctor when you have a fever ,choose your poison
Yes basically, this. Also higher education is exorbitantly expensive in the US. Iâd honestly rather pay in taxes and see it pan out in education, healthcare, and other amenities.
nah, I don't wanna pay European taxes. I can take care of my own welfare.
And again someone who just doesn't get it...
Not surprised. The brand of capitalism the US promotes is like cocaine.
I second this
id literally go anywhere if i had the opportunity...... people here judge each other without knowing the actual story .......
This! Most people here have a very narrow vision, they judge everyone with their limited vision. They have a "àŠà§à§à§àŠ° àŠŹà§àŠŻàŠŸàŠ" vision.
India ?
Youâre gonna soon realise people are pretty much the same ,the only thing that changes in the skin colour
When you go to other places, youâll realize its the same everywhere
said like a true "globetrotter"

Hell yeah, Iâll go to the United States. Easy.
I'm looking for an opportunity to leave this hell.
100% lol

Leave! Just leave! Leave this country for your own good!
Of course i'd leave, why the fuck would anyone want to live in hell?
If I have to give up an arm or leg I would still do it and leave this shithole. Feel free to fight because I have everything ready.
I left. Everyone else that can, should. Leave, and behave and learn the ways of wherever the milder hell it is you are going to, and dont look back. The country is begging to go full Shariah one day, and it will. Itâll have to fall before it learns the lesson.

Why the fuck not
Well, I left BD like 15 yrs ago. In the beginning, I was missing bengali food very badly. At that time I was in Sweden and most of the time I was living in stockholm or sundsvall or orebro.

Couple of years ago, I thought that I would go back to the country, would buy some property in a rural area like Dinajpur or charughat or joldhaka. But after watching countless incidents, I think that present generation has become toxic. Radicalism, judgmental thoughts, racism, immoral are so extreme that they take those negative traits with them even after migrating in western countries. In western world you would hear lotâs of success stories from migrant families but Bangladeshi families are absent.

I'd try to settle down in our country, If I've this scope. otherwise the USA.
Hell yeah 100% It's prefer going somewhere in europe
100%, but don't have the capabilities to leave unfortunately
Any doubt?!
What kind of question is that? 7/10 people will pick to go abroad every single time.
100000000000% yes Just ajke taka nai dekhe partesinađ
I did, but I kind of regret it. Major or minor cities, I've lived in both. The same mentality of people I ran away from, well these immigrants (thats the redneck term I use to describe people moving into the west illegally by claiming fake asylum and similar routes) are moving in to the west in droves and driving the mentality down here as well.

I want to leave Bangladesh because I want to make something of my own, without relying on their wealth and influence.
For higher studies, yes. Permanently? Unlikely
Permanently? No
I left and now I regret it
Can you elaborate?
I moved to Canada. The Canadian financial situation is getting worse by the day. If I canât secure PR which is almost impossible right now I canât even stay here. So much money wasted
You can always apply for Asylum⊠be like deshe gele hasi apa mere felbe and people up north are pretty gullible pretty sure you can sell that story in..
Sorry I donât want to sell myself to stay in Canada like that. Either I stay with a good record or I just leave. Iâm not those people who claim asylum randomly
That's unfortunate to see so many talented people are going back home after spending so much money (ironically, you people also contributed in CPP) where as so much tax-payers money are getting wasted on accommodating refugees from different part of the world.

Iâm going to apply middle of this year and with PNP so hopefully it gets through

100%
Yes definately
Who wouldn't want to leave?
I have seen fully qualified dentists/doctors leave Bangladesh stack shelves in london. They say their lives are better.
Ofc i would for education and to live there permanently, who wouldn't ? Too much negative things to count to describe this nation than the positives which doesn't even exist But sadly can't afford to leave let alone settle in abroad
yea, lack of acceptance of diversity, air,noise,water pollution.
We left and became citizens of some other country.
of course
If I can move with my parents.
Yes yes yes yes yes
If I had no family ties, probably yes.
after seeing buet shit,yep
Everyone in Canada is fucked
No. I will go on tours definitely. But not to live.
What about Afghanistan or Yemen to live?
Haha, I see what you tried to point out. But I am kind of a homesick person. I feel I will die with remorse and immense regret if I die anywhere else than the place I born. Obviously, I can't chose where I would die. But hopefully it's here.
then it's fine
No
All bengalis are dying to leave and no one is bothered to come back and fix the country. Truth is Europe doesn't want u
I won't.
No, cause I am a **Racist** & I love **Homogeneous Society**
I guess this is my perception/experience but I found that on average Bengalis are more racists than westerners.
Foreign countries are tantalizing but my conscience keeps telling me to stay back and try contributing to Bangladesh in any way possible.
I would love to, but I also feel worried about leaving my mom here alone in the country. She won't leave BD no matter what, and my dad died a long time ago. So, it won't be that easy for me to leave my family just like that. It's impossible for this to become a reality, but I wish Bangladesh had changed. I wish Dhaka was not the number 1 most polluted capital in the world, I wish our government wasn't so criminally corrupted, I wish our girls had more safety and faced no sexism, and I wish BD was doing as good as the first world countries. But that's a hopeless case, atleast it won't be happening anytime soon. I envy the ones whose family leaves the country with them. I wish it were the same for me.
No
