...Unemployment is the situation in which one does not have any opportunity to work and earn. An unemployed person can not earn his living. He has to depend on others . He is thought as a burden to the family or the society. So, it is regarded as a problem. Unemployment is common every where in the world. No country in the world is completely is free form it. So, Bangladesh is not exception from it. Rather, this problem is very serious in our country. Many people are badly suffering from the curse of unemployment. There are many direct or indirect causes of unemployment. They are as follows: Our country is over populated. The rate of population growth is very high. So the present job facilities can not keep pace with the growing population. Besides, our country is not developed in industries. They can absorb only a limited number of people. Again, our education system is very defective. It is traditional and depends on memorization. It does not make them self-reliant. There is less opportunity for vocational training. So, only the memorized bookish knowledge does not help them in the work field. Moreover, our students have a false sense of prestige to become officers. They hanker after only for official jobs. So they remain unemployed. Then, there is serious lack of skilled manpower. This limits the scope of jobs. We have a lot of natural resources but we can not use these properly. This also causes the problem. Lastly, many illiterate people believe in a false notion such...

...Bangladesh is a small country with growing problems. Among all problems, unemployment problem is a great one. The problem has spread its evil clutch all over the country. It is going from bad to worse. All are getting concerned with this problems. There are many cause behind it. The first and for most cause is over population. Her population is growing very rabidly. After independence, the population has been doubled. In respect of population, it is eighth largest country in the world. The country cannot provide this huge population with employment opportunities. So, many people fall into this problem. There are plenty of natural resources in our country. They are not properly used. This also create the problem. There are few mills and factories in this country. A small number of people are engaged there.Besides, every year two or three mills are closed due o economic loss. Thus the scope of employment is narrowing. Most people are illiterate. They are not involved in productive work. This another cause. Our educational system is defective. The present educational system is not fit for practical life. Professional and vocational training is absent in this system. Beside our students nourish a false sense of self dignity. They are not keen to do manual labor. Rather they like to remain unemployed . There is no distribution of national wealth. It is also responsible for the problem. Some people think that everything is predestined by God. So, there is use of try. They like remain...

...Unemployment Problem in Bangladesh Unemployment means the state of being without any work both for the educated and uneducated for earning one's livelihood. Unemployment problem has become a great concern all over the world. But nowhere in the world is this problem as acute as in Bangladesh. Thousands of people in our country are without any job. In 2010, Bangladesh’s unemployment rate was 5.1% (Source: Bangladesh Burrow of Statistics). Source: UN data, Country Profile: Bangladesh Cause of unemployment: Bangladesh, suffers from large-scale underemployment; especially in agriculture, a large part of the population could be removed without reducing agricultural output. Beyond agriculture, disguised unemployment also exists in industries, offices and organizations, particularly in the public sector. Unemployment among the educated youths is rather high in Bangladesh. The unemployment rate for the population having secondary education and above is significantly higher than those with a lower level of education. The unemployment rate for educated women is higher compared to the male population. In Bangladesh salaried employment in the formal sectors is not big enough to take care of the huge number of unemployed. Employment promotion, especially, creation of self-employment opportunities, continues to be the most important function of the Bureau of Manpower Employment and Training. The Fifth Five-Year Plan (1997-2002) had set a target of creating additional employment of 6...

After ending Mughol regime when British came in Sub continent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh) they started to do business, they exploited the sub-continent. They did not establish any Industry which is helpful to remove the unemployment problem. Though some Industry was made but all of them were placed in Indian Territory...

...Impact Of Globalization On Bangladesh Globalization has become a buzzword in the new era of international relations. Basically it is a process of expanding trade and commerce all over the world by creating a frontier-less market. But now it has had a far-reaching effect on many aspects of life. With the development of hi-tech communication media and rapid transportation facilities, the hole world has squeezed and people have come closer to one another. Now we can learn in an instant what is happening in the farthest corner of the globe. In fact, globalization is currently understood mainly in terms of mutual relationship of nations and region of economic domain, in particular, trade, financial flows and traditional corporations. In other words globalization is seen as an economic parallel to internationalization in the form of the universal market, notwithstanding the fact that there has been an interlined process of political and cultural globalization exemplified by increasing democratization, spread of English, television schedule and movies and wide awareness of global environment problems.

...1. ------------------------------------------------- Unemployment problems of bangladesh ------------------------------------------------- Rising unemployment and declining share of the poorer populace in national income are two major challenges for the country in achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), says a government report. “Appropriate interventions are required so that benefits of economic growth reach the poorest quintile,” observes the report prepared by Planning Commission on progress towards MDGs. In 1992, the poor’s share in national income was 6.5 percent. But it dropped to 5.3 percent in 2005, marking a decline of 18.46 percent in 13 years. A steady annual growth around 5 percent on average in the 1990s and 6 percent in the 2000s helped the country to draw nearer to implementation of many of the MDGs, eight goals that the United Nations member states have pledged to accomplish by the year 2015. Halving the number of people living in extreme poverty, ensuring universal access to primary education, eliminating gender disparities, reducing child mortality rate and maternal mortality ratio, and combating HIV/AIDS and other diseases are among the targets officially adopted in 2000. One of the shortcomings in Bangladesh’s efforts to attain MDGs is failure to make growth process sufficiently pro-poor, says the report, adding that depleting share of the poorer segments of the society in national income and consumption shows that the poor are not benefiting...

...Introduction Bangladesh is a country of more than 140 million people, and it is one of South Asia’s least developed countries. The country has under gone a major shift in its economic philosophy and management in recent years. At Bangladesh’s birth, the country embraced socialism as the economic ideology with a dominant role for the public sector. But, since the mid-seventies, it undertook a major restructuring towards establishing a market economy with emphasis on private sector-led economic growth. Bangladesh achieved good economic progress during the 1990s by adopting a series of structural and economic reform measures. The stabilization program reduced inflation as well as fiscal and current accounts deficit and established a healthy foreign exchange reserve position. Economic performance improved with gross domestic product (GDP) growth averaging 5 percent in the 1990s compared with 4 percent in the preceding decade. The acceleration in economic growth was accompanied by decreased incidence of poverty and a distinct improvement of some key social indicators. Rapid growth in food grain production has been a remarkable feature of the country’s economic performance in recent years. In FY2000, Bangladesh reached self-sufficiency in food grain production. A combination of factors accounts for the robust growth of the agriculture sector, and in particular of food grains. According to a World Bank estimate, Bangladesh has the 36th largest economy in the world in terms of GNP based...

...We should automate all the mills and factory that are government owned. INTRODUCTION Bangladesh is a democratic republic with a parliamentary form of government. Bangladesh remains a developing country with poor infrastructure. Occupationally, 75 percent of the civilian labor force, which is currently estimated at 56 million, is directly or indirectly engaged in agriculture. Only 12 percent is engaged in industry. Unemployment is estimated at around 18.5 percent. In terms of age structure, it is more youthful than in the western countries. Heavy pressure of population on scarce land has no doubt created an extremely unfavorable land-man ratio. The GDP of Bangladesh is total $258.608 billion, Per Capital $1,572 (estimate 2010). Due to rapid growth of the population in the last few decades the Bangladeshi labor force has grown rapidly, as there were a large proportion of young people born in the 1960s and 1970s. According to the EIU Country Profile the Bangladeshi labor force almost doubled in a matter of a decade, growing from 30.9 million people in 1985-86 to 56.0 million people in 1995-96. Although all sectors of the national economy experienced significant growth, they were far below the speed of the labor force growth. According to Bangladeshi national statistics, in 1995-96 only 12.4 percent of the labor force had formal employment, while 40 percent were considered "employed in family-based" businesses, 29.6 percent were considered "self-employed," and 17.9 percent...

It is inseparable from the geography and ecology of Earth, and is therefore somewhat of a misnomer, since, while definitions and representations of the "world economy" vary widely, they must at a minimum exclude any consideration of resources or value based outside of the Earth. For example, while attempts could be made to calculate the value of currently unexploited mining opportunities in unclaimed territory in Antarctica, the same opportunities on Mars would not be considered a part of the world economy – even if currently exploited in some way – and could be considered of latent value only in the same way as uncreated intellectual property, such as a previously unconceived invention. It is common to limit questions of the world economy exclusively to human economic activity, and the world economy is typically judged in monetary terms, even in cases in which there is no efficient market to help valuate certain goods or services,...

...INTRODUCTION Bangladesh, one of the least developed countries, undergoes numerous economical dilemmas such as shortage in power supply, poverty, lack of skilled labors and proper infrastructure, high unemployment rate, low standard of living, continuous disequilibria in the economy, defective administrative and inappropriate tax structure. However, this country has a good prospect of doing better because of having huge natural and other resources which fascinated many investors to invest in Bangladesh. In spite of going through all these hardships and troubles, this country is trying to overcome these lacking through the development of different macro aggregates. The macro aggregates that affect the development of the economy of Bangladesh are National Income, Inflation, Exchange Rate, Export, Import, Remittance, Money Supply and Government Expenditure. For this research paper, four macro aggregates have been selected and then comparison and demonstration have been done about how these four factors influence the economy of Bangladesh in the reference period (April 2013 to June 2013). The four macro aggregates are: 1. Exchange Rate 2. Export 3. Inflation 4. Remittance Among all other indicators, these four would be the most relevant and constructive ones in terms of explaining Bangladesh’s economy. 1.1 OBJECTIVE The term project has the following objectives: * To have extensive knowledge of Exchange Rate, Export, Inflation and Remittance...

...DIGITAL BANGLADESH - Paragraph DIGITAL BANGLADESH Bangladesh is resounding with the target of achieving digital Bangladesh. Broadly speaking, a digital society ensures an ICT driven knowledge-based where information will be readily available on line and where all possible tasks of the government, semi-government and also private spheres will be processed using the modern technology. So, a digital Bangladesh must guarantee efficient and effective use of modern ICT in all spheres of the society with a view to establishing good governance. In other word, making Bangladesh a digital one, we have to establish technology driven e-governance, e-commerce, e-production, e-agriculture, e-health etc, in the society emphasizing the overall development of the common people. Building strong ICT infrastructure is the pre-requisite for making Bangladesh a digital one. For this, we need to focus on the following relevant issues assessing the harsh reality that hinders our development in this context. Latest statistics reveal that Bangladesh faces a power deficit of up to 200 MW against a demand of 5000 MW daily. It may be noted that for proper ICT development an uninterrupted power supply is a must. For the ICT development Internet users of the country must be increased. In this case our position is the worst one among the South Asian countries. From different sources, it has been learnt that, English literacy rate in Bangladesh is less than one percent. Whereas, English literacy rates...
