Day 185

BAILEY, MY NIECE IN FRONT OF THE Jatyio Sangsad Bhaban (Parliament Building) in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban, including the residences for the members of parliament and layout of the lawns and lake, was created by gifted American architect Louis I. Khan. Construction was started by the Government of Pakistan in 1961 and the building was earmarked for the federal legislature of East and West Pakistan. However, after its completion on 28 January 1982, Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban was used for the first time on 15th February 1982 as the venue for the eighth, and last, session of the second parliament of Bangladesh. Since then, this impressive complex has been used for the Bangladesh National Assembly.

RICE PADDY looking great, so it might be a great harvest which will make the Bengali farmers happy.  “Meat Trade News Daily” says the following:

Bangladesh produces around 30 million tonnes of rice, enough to feed its 150 million people, but often faces tightness in food supplies due to floods, cyclones and droughts.

Bangladesh is the world’s fourth biggest rice producer and agriculture contributes a fifth of its economic activities, employing 60 per cent of its workforce.
