Lama 2 Alikadam [05:03]
Bangladesh is the land of natural beauty and fertility attracts various people with numerous aims. While traveling towards the eastside of the country more specifically AliKadam, Lama of Bandarban district our eyes were overwhelmed by the beauty of the site as well as little disappointed with current environmental situation of the area. We were travelling through the uneven road on the traditional 'Chander Gari' and saw all the flat lands around the foot area of Mirinza hill, the land beside the road from lama to ali kadam; even in the playing ground of Modujhiri govt. primary school and as far as we can see the bank of Matamuhuri River were covered with tobacco farming. While talking to local people we come to know that the flat land where these farming is being practice was mostly government properties given to high government officials for farming of "Rubber" or "Horticulture" but there weren't any. So these lands are being subjected to a very interesting way of practicing farming by the middle man of that area. The local & multinational tobacco companies are providing money to the middle man for contract farming of tobacco to ensure the raw materials of their product. The middle man taking the money asks the marginal farmer to cultivate tobacco for them. But as marginal farmers do not have enough money to cultivate they lend money from the middle man with high interest. For example, if they take BDT 10000 for one tobacco season (6/7 month), they have to return 15000 ...

Dr Debapriya Bhattacharya - Sustainable Tourism in Bangladesh [02:00]
Bangladeshi economist points out the kind of travel and tourism his country should pursue. We agree 100% at Crowdsourced Travel. Please join our effort to promote Sustainable Tourism in Bangladesh: bangladesh.crowdsourced.travel FULL TRANSCRIPT: "Bangladesh has to pitch itself for Sustainable Tourism. What is sustainable tourism? Sustainable tourism is when you do promote your tourism you create income, a flow of investment but you do not reduce the quality of the nature and the society and culture at the same time. Sustainable tourism is also linked to the millennium development goals. The first goal is the eradication of poverty. So sustainable tourism will mean linking the poor people, the informal sector into the private sector mainstream tourism sector. So, poverty alleviation and tourism should go hand in hand. This is the first principle of sustainable tourism. The second point is how to relate the natural issues or the preservation of natural capital of what we have. Whether it is Sundabarn or Cox's Bazaar beach. How do you like the environmental concerns with the tourism? The third pillar is to achieve the MDG goal #7, that is gender equity. How do you really bring in women employment to the tourism industry? Finally, the last but not the least is about the international partnerships, so you also look forward to international collaboration and international investment both in the infrastructure and the forms of tourism. I see the prospects."

Beautiful Bangladesh! School of life... [10:07]
Bangladesh - a small country of superlatives... Bangladesh is a young and small, an "undiscovered" country with the highest population density worldwide, from tourism spared country full of contrasts, superlatives and variety, the probably most notable feature of Bangladesh... The immense rivers Padma, Meghna and Jamuna with her countless tributaries dominate the environment, form a huge traffic network and unite to the biggest delta worldwide, picturesque tea gardens in the highland, surrounded by impenetrable jungle, the most lonesome coasts and the longest beach of the world. In Dhaka, the fastest growing metropolis of Asia by rickshaw in the blustering traffic to the biggest river port of the world, Sadarghat. Important, millenniums old archaeological excavation sites, Buddhist cloisters and Hindu temple towns. A unique population in flora and fauna waits for you. If nature or culture, whether in the Sundarbans, on the traces of the Royal Bengal Tiger or in the hills of Chittagong to guest with ethnic minorities -- Bangladesh offers great in every kind, I think unique. Incredibly, like the people.
