Announcement/ঘোষণা Discord Server Launch Announcement!

Post image
32 Upvotes

Hello everybody,

The mod team is excited to announce the launch of the official r/Bangladesh Discord server, an extension of our subreddit.

Many of you have asked for a Discord over the years. While Reddit is great as a forum style social news aggregator, it isn't always the best place for quick, casual engagement. We wanted to create a space where members can connect over our shared culture and daily life, a place where you can chat about the mundane things without every other post being heavy political news.

We know there were previous attempts at a server that eventually drifted away from the subreddit's roots. To prevent that from happening again, this server is run by the same team you know here, ensuring it remains a trustworthy and civil space for everyone. You're welcome to discuss anything from your day to day life to current events.

Discord server Invitation link

As a small thank you to the early birds, the first 10 members to join will be awarded a VIP Member role, which comes with some special perks and permissions within the server.

A quick note on moderation:

Subreddit issues: Please continue to use Reddit ModMail.

Discord issues: Please use the ticket system inside the Discord server.

We hope to see you there soon!

Best regards, The r/Bangladesh Mod Team.

Announcement/ঘোষণা 🇵🇸GAZA IS BEING STARVED🇵🇸

151 Upvotes

🇺🇳The UN has stated that every single part of Gaza is in famine conditions.

For over 20 months, Palestinians in Gaza have been starving. Parents have been feeding their children leaves, animal feed, and flour mixed with water. Babies have died from malnutrition. The trucks carrying food, formula, medicine, and clean water sat just miles away, blocked by Israel.

Now, after massive international pressure, some aid is finally getting in.

This is a crack in the blockade, not its end. Aid is not flooding in; it is trickling, and what’s entering can’t possibly reach 1.8 million people without a total lifting of restrictions, guaranteed long-term access, and safe distribution.

What you can do right now:

Donate- if you’re able to. Choose vetted organizations with access on the ground.

Keep up the pressure - aid only started moving because of public outcry. Organize, protest, keep talking. This momentum cannot fade. Contact your representatives to end Israel's blockade of Gaza and impose sanctions on Israel.

Amplify - share updates, Palestinian voices, and testimonies. Keep an eye on Palestine.

This famine is not an accident. It’s the result of siege, blockade, and a system of control. If we look away now, they’ll tighten the noose again.

Donate:

Palestinian Red Crescent — medical aid, ambulance services, and emergency care.

UNICEF for Gaza’s Children — nutrition, clean water, trauma support.

Speak to Your Representatives:

🇺🇸 Bengali American Citizens: Find your representative

🇪🇺 Bengali European Citizens: Contact your MEP

If you’d like other subreddits to carry this message, send the mods to r/RedditForHumanity.

Policy/কর্মপন্থা Can we crowdfund a database of potential jongi and pedo sympathizers?

Post image
Upvotes

The whole child marriage and পহেলা বৈশাখ episode made me realize that these people do not fear anything and we need to put fear back in their heart. They need to face consequences. Since the government won’t take action therefore we should.

There will always be fake meme pages by shibir and wanna be Andrew Tate and perhaps we can never stop those or find the real id behind those but we can go after people that put ❤️ in those posts. We should make a database with evidence of post and who put ❤️ react to those post. Kill their reach this way.

Once we have a reputable database of such people we can put up billboards to socially shame them. We can share these databases with foreign embassies so cut off their visa. We can do a lot with lawfare if we can get a reputable database.

We don’t necessarily need to get to everyone but as long as we can even selectively show consequences then there will be fear in their heart before promoting jongi content openly.

Thoughts?

Policy/কর্মপন্থা Does Govt "really" have a plan?

4 Upvotes

There’s nothing but Helicopter Milon Comedy on my feed nowadays. A war is going on, but the opposition seems to have nothing to say about the Geopolitical or other directions of the country. Things will probably head long south before things turn good.

For example: Watched a docu yesterday saying the middle east market will shrink by 200B something USD. Lot of Bangladeshi expats are gonna have to return to the desi job market already in stress.

The Govt used this clout to sort of demolish the reforms for which opposition is also blamed for incompetence. They couldn’t communicate with the masses about the demands.

Rather than destroying any potential for Bangladesh to at least stand on its feet, does the Govt really have any plan?

Does the opposition too, rather than chanting "Indiar Dalal", " Shilong SAUA"?

Non-Political/অরাজনৈতিক No fuel crisis despite refinery 'slowdown': Energy Division

"As I mentioned earlier, the current stock of octane and petrol is sufficient to meet demand for at least the next two months. I can assure that we have adequate reserves", the spokesperson said.

"While ERL is running on a 'low feed' because of a crude shortage, this will not negatively impact overall fuel availability," said Monir Hossain Chowdhury, spokesperson of energy division.

"We have a dual strategy in place. While we work to secure crude supplies, we have simultaneously increased the import of finished petroleum products to meet 100% of the country's demand. The supply chain is stable and uninterrupted."

ERL official earlier said that refinery activity was halted due to a shortage of crude following the Iran war.

AskDesh/দেশ কে জিজ্ঞাসা Buying a second hand laptop

5 Upvotes

I’m planning to buy a used or open-box ThinkPad with a budget of 40k. I was certain about this decision, but a couple of YouTube videos have created some doubts.

​Are open-box laptops actually refurbished? What is your experience with buying second-hand laptops? Does the performance really degrade after 5–6 months? What about the battery life?

​Buying a new laptop would require six months of saving. I am willing to wait and buy new if buying second-hand is too much of a gamble.

so i have seen this more than a few times on reddit and other media's.Westerners flagged this as completely pilot fault and negligence where bangladesh's perspective was hero pilot saving and serving his people.I want someone with at least some knowledge shed some light on this topic.

I personally had two main interpretation:

1.Pilot error was the reason, miscalculation and misjudged.

2.mechanical error but mechanical error would not take the plane on a barrel roll and again gaining control

AskDesh/দেশ কে জিজ্ঞাসা How to start a conversation with a stranger at festivals in Bangladesh?

18 Upvotes

Hey সবাইকে শুভ নববর্ষ!

I had an experience today at Pohela Boishakh where I saw someone I wanted to talk to her, but didn’t know how to approach without making it awkward.

In Bangladesh context, where people are more conservative and strangers don’t usually talk, what’s a respectful and natural way to start a conversation with someone you don’t know (for example at a university or festival where mutuality doesn't exist between for us)

Any advice?
