    Why did Bangladesh give loans to Sri Lanka."… looks like the Medamulana Rajapakse curse has fallen on Bangladesh. Banish them from earth.

    Final days are being counted by the IMF team (the US) to oust Bangladesh leader.

    @GH, current leader of Bangladesh is loved by the US, India and by managing extremism has brought about increasing prosperity. We allow extremism to run rampant in our country and have destroyed ourselves

    $39.79 billion in Bangladesh seems like heaven compared to Sri Lanka's $00.(they probably ran into this difficulty with the currency swap with SL)
