    WIDER Working Paper 2020/44-Structural Transformation

    WIDER Working Paper 2020/44 Structural transformation, inequality dynamics, and inclusive growth in Bangladesh Selim Raihan1 and Sunera Saba Khan2 April 2020 Abstract: The Bangladesh economy has undergone significant structural changes over the last four decades. The share of agriculture in GDP has declined, while the significance of industry and service sectors has increased. These structural changes have been associated with persistent challenges such as lack of diversification, poor working conditions, low productivity, and high degree of informality, obstructing the progress towards inclusive economic growth. Though manufacturing is now an overwhelmingly salient component of Bangladesh’s export composition, this is due primarily to the rapid expansion of the ready-made garments sector: the performance of other industries has been rather weak. In order to become a sustained, inclusive driver of economic growth and employment creation, the manufacturing sector needs to focus on expanding and diversifying its base. This study looks at the major challenges, both policy-induced and structural, for the required structural transformation in the Bangladesh economy, aiming to tackle inequality and promote inclusive growth. Key words: Bangladesh, structural transformation, inclusive growth, inequality, ready-made garments JEL classification: O14, O25, O40, O53 1 University of Dhaka and SANEM (South Asian Network on Economic Modeling), Dhaka, Bangladesh, corresponding author: [email protected]; 2 SANEM, Dhaka, Bangladesh.

  • Effects of Flood Mitigation Measure: Lessons from Dhaka Flood Protection Project, Bangladesh

    Effects of Flood Mitigation Measure: Lessons from Dhaka Flood Protection Project, Bangladesh

    Vol. 24, No. 6 Asian Profile December, 1996 Effects of Flood Mitigation Measure: Lessons from Dhaka Flood Protection Project, Bangladesh BHUIYAN MONWAR ALAM Research Associate LETECIA N. DAMOLE Research Associate and EBEL WICKRAMANAYAKE Associate Professor Regional & Rural Development Planning Human Settlements Development Program School of Environment, Resources and Development Asian Institute of Technology Bangkok, Thailand Introduction Although, Bangladesh is subjected to perpetual floods every year, she suffered two of the most serious and devastating floods on record in 1987 and 1988 which lasted from later part of August to first part of September. Vast areas of the country including the Capital City of Dhaka with a population of about 4.8 million were flooded to an unprecedented degree with flood levels 1.5 m higher than normal for periods up to four weeks. In Dhaka City, it is estimated that about 200 sq km (77 per cent of the total area of 260 sq km) was submerged to depths ranging from 0.3 m to over 4.5 m (FAP 8B, 1991). About 2.4 million people (50 per cent of the city population) were directly affected by these floods. Conservative estimates of the floods suggest that loss due to annual flood is about TkI 250 milhon, and the damages to a 10-year (return period) flood and a 40-year (return period) flood are Tk 530 million and Tk 750 million, respectively (Bangladesh Water Development Board, Undated). Following the floods of 1988 the Government of Bangladesh (GOB) established a National Flood Protection Committee in October 1988 which proposed to build a system comprising of embankments and flood walls around Dhaka City to protect the intrusion of flood water from the surrounding rivers and drain out the internal water caused by rainfall.

    Bangkok City Farm Program: Promoting Urban Agriculture Through Networks Roof Garden on Top of Laksi District Office Administration Building Cabannes, 2019

    Food System Planning Case No. 2 March 2021 Bangkok City Farm Program: promoting urban agriculture through networks Roof garden on top of Laksi District Office Administration building Cabannes, 2019 The case study1 has been put together by the Dhaka Food System project, with support by the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and in association with the Bangladesh Institute of Planners. The case studies provide relevant international references to stakeholders, to inform how to best integrate food system considerations into urban planning. Introduction: what is this case about? The Bangkok City Farm Program, publicly funded, has provided support over the last ten years to a broad spectrum of urban agriculture related local activities. Its implementation through a network of partners institutions and coordinated by a lean staffed Thailand Sustainable Agriculture Foundation (http://sathai.org, Thai Language only), has permitted reaching out and supporting hundreds of grassroots, through small financial award, training and awareness raising activities. One of its uniqueness lies in its quite high cost / benefit ratio, high level of efficiency, capacity to raise urban agriculture profile on the city and national agenda and strengthening urban farmers resilience in cases of floods or COVID, facilitating their access to nutritious food. As such, it might be a brilliant example for Bangladesh food champions to consider. 1. Context: Bangkok urban and food challenges Quite Similar to Dhaka where rivers are part of the city life, wealth and threats, Bangkok’ Chao Praya river remains a source of life and nourishment and central to development of agricultural sector. Another aspect shared by both capitals refers to very extremely population density: respectively: inner Bangkok 3662 pp/km2 and 1542 for BMA compared to 28 600 pp/km2 for Dhaka).

  • The People's Republic of Bangladesh Project: Dhaka–Chittagong Railway

    The People's Republic of Bangladesh Project: Dhaka–Chittagong Railway

    Ex-ante Evaluation 1. Name of the Project Country: The People’s Republic of Bangladesh Project: Dhaka–Chittagong Railway Development Project (Loan Agreement: December 11, 2007; Loan Amount: 12,916 million yen; Borrower: The Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh) 2. Necessity and Relevance of JBIC’s Assistance 1. Present state and issues facing the railway sector in Bangladesh In Bangladesh, projects in the railway sector require more time and funds to bear fruit than do projects in the road and other sectors. For this and other reasons, the government of Bangladesh has scarcely made any new investments in railway development since independence in the 1970s. Consequently, virtually all railway facilities and equipment now in use were developed during the British colonial period (up to 1947). Indeed, they have become so old and decrepit that they are unable to fully capitalize on the railway’s inherent strengths – massive, rapid, punctual, safe, and environment friendly – resulting in reduced transportation volume, poorer service and a smaller role for the railway in the overall transport sector. In parallel with the robust GDP growth (5–6%) in recent years, demand for freight transportation has steadily increased by 5–6% annually in Bangladesh, showing particularly rapid growth in the demand for transport in the Dhaka–Chittagong section, connecting Dhaka, the capital city and political and economic hub of the country, and Chittagong, the second largest city and industrial hub with the country’s largest seaport. Since 2001, the amount of cargo handled at the port of Chittagong has been increasing by more than 10% annually, but if the port facilities are expanded and enough private companies are attracted to the Export Processing Zone (EPZ), the demand for transport in the Dhaka–Chittagong section can be expected to increase even further.

The project has been funded by the World Bank (International Development Association) for obtaining a better understanding of air pollution sources in Bangladesh. The project included the development of emissions inventories, air pollution dispersion modeling as well as field studies/surveys in order to collect air samples and relevant input data. Task 1 of the project sets the basis for understanding the air pollution problems in Bangladesh (for Dhaka and Chittagong), and is a critical task for the entire project. No complete emissions inventory has previously been conducted for these two cities in Bangladesh. The emissions inventory include mapping the various sources (point, area, and line) in the two cities The emissions inventory will further represent the basis for air pollution dispersion modeling undertaken as part of Task 2 of the project.
