Indigenous Capital Warship Build- Ing in Bangladesh: Challenges and Ways Forward
INDIGENOUS CAPITAL WARSHIP BUILD- ING IN BANGLADESH: CHALLENGES AND WAYS FORWARD Commander M Zillur Rahim Khan, (TAS), afwc, psc, BN “If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up people to collect wood and don’t assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immen- sity of the sea.”Antoine de Saint-Exupery Introduction Bangladesh Navy (BN) started her journey as a force with few assets after the in- dependence. Today she has become a considerable force with more than 70 ships and crafts (DNP, NHQ). Ships were acquired from various countries including UK, USA, China, South Korea etc. Such acquisition gave BN the required sea go- ing capability to look after the country’s maritime interest. But BN is still striving to achieve desirable combat capability. The causes of BN’s limitation in combat capability may be attributed to reasons like, foreign dependency, non availability of desired platform, spares, rapid changing technology etc. These limitations may be multiplied if those countries denied to provide capital warship or our sea lines of communication are disrupted during the crisis. As such BN needs to maintain credible force and BN should approach for an indigenous solution. In particular indigenous war shipbuilding will enhance her capability to perform her core duties. \ - S\ !"#$%&!$%'#\ Padma Class in 2013. These 350 tonnes modern vessels were built with the as- sistance of China Ship Building Industry Corporation. KSY is building two large patrol craft for BN at this moment. However, Bangladesh is yet to build capital warship whereas capital warship is the most capable platform at sea.

Bangladesh’s Submarines from China: Implications for Bay of Bengal Security By Nilanthi Samaranayake Synopsis Bangladesh’s acquisition of two submarines from China should not be narrowly viewed through the prism of India-China geopolitics. Rather, it should be understood in a wider context as a milestone by a modernising naval power in the Bay of Bengal. Commentary THE IMPENDING arrival of two Chinese-origin submarines to Bangladesh together with China’s planned construction of submarines for Pakistan, has contributed to the perception among some observers that China is attempting to encircle India and reinforced concerns about a Chinese “string of pearls”. Yet Bangladesh’s acquisition of two Ming-class submarines should not be narrowly viewed through this geopolitical prism. Rather, it should be seen in the broader context of the country’s force modernisation, which has important implications for Bay of Bengal security. In fact, Bangladesh’s development of its naval capabilities may contribute as a force multiplier to Indian security initiatives in the Bay of Bengal rather than being a potential threat to regional stability.

A Case of Study for Nuclear Power Plant Grade Water
1096 International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 10, Issue 4, April-2019 ISSN 2229-5518 An Investigation of the Padma River Water Quality Parameters near Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant: A case of study for Nuclear Power Plant grade water Md. Nur Salam, Md.Farhan Hasan, Md. Akhlak Bin Aziz Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering, Military Institute of Science and Technology, Mirpur Cantonment, Dhaka,Bangladesh. Abstract— Water samples collected from five different points near under construction Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant were tested in this work to assess the availability of nuclear grade water. The average value of pH was found to be 8.02, mean value of Electrical Conductivity (EC) was found 430 µS/cm, Total Dissolve Solid (TDS) 215 ppm, Salinity 0.8, total Alkalinity 79.6 ppm, total hardness 149 ppm and Chloride Content was found 16.87ppm. The Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) of water were founded to be 0.15 ppm, 31 ppm and 8.85 ppm respectively. Among the heavy metals the amount of Cr, Pb, As, Mn, Fe, Mn, Cd, Co, Ni were found to be 0.0041 ppm, 0.00602 ppm, 0.0088 ppm, 0.02 ppm, 0 ppm, 0.00099ppm, 0 ppm and 0.00182 ppm respectively by using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The pH meter (HANNA Instrument HT 2002-0, S/N CO316002) was used to determine the pH. Total dissolved solids (TDS) and EC were determined by digital TDS meter and EC meter (HANNA -2003-02, S/N: CO1271A1) and to determine the chemical properties of the samples water various tests were done.
