0 awesome man this is a real picture yes this is a real so this happened few months ago yes exactly the same thing happened few months ago wow when was that July yes July July 2024 yes unbelievable so they shoot him on the on the chest on the chest and he instantly died oh my God so let me explain briefly what is going on in Bangladesh because in July 2024 there were massive protests all across Bangladesh but especially in the capital city of Dhaka most of the protesters were University students especially from Dhaka University which we just visited but then within few days the protest spread out across the general population the reason is very simple the people are fed up and tired of the current government especially for the corruption for the misuse of the system of the laws and the massive inequalities especially about one thing that they implemented which is called job qu it's basically a system where all the government jobs they are resered and exclusive for certain group of people so the general population cannot really apply for these kind of jobs and you can imagine especially for students and fresh graduates they were really upset because they study very hard for many years and then they cannot apply for a government job keep in mind that in Bangladesh is not easy at all to find a job most of them are underpaid so many people in Bangladesh dream to have a government job so all of these things combined they brought massive protest in the streets in July 2024 but the big problem is how the government responded to this protest because they use extreme force and extreme violence they shoot at the protesters and in just few days they killed thousands of Young University students they also imposed cews and they did several internet blackouts so you didn't have access to Internet you didn't have access to social media you cannot communicate with other people but the students were very committed very strong very courageous and this brought on the 5th of August 2024 the resignation of the Prime Minister shaik Hina she left Dhaka by helicopter and she escaped to India and most probably she's still there as of right now after that the University students elected a new prime minister which is still in charge as of right now but the situation is still very uncertain very unstable and there are still many things to fix and to face for Bangladesh and you can also imagine that the population is still very shocked and traumatized by what happened just few months ago how many students they killed in the past few months in uh in the newspaper they said they killed like 1,500 or 2 yeah but this is not the real news maybe they killed more than 500 5,000 plus 5,000 plus students 5,000 plus maybe but this is also not sure because it's not a official number this this is not a official number the number of actual killing is above 2,000 plus more than 2,000 more than 2,000 yes and you you told me that even in one day they kill like hundreds of people in just one day yes yes definitely that's why you have all these graffiti they are just recent you know they just happen in the past few months because it's really going on a big battle now in Bangladesh political B also a real real thing happen a police officer try to silence Sil stud silence a student by his hand damn so now we're going to sain's friend uh dormitory to see how they live while studying here at Daka University this is a Hindu temple and I don't know if you can see there it's ad Yogi Shiva that that one specific is the one built by sad Guru in Co Bator I've been

living eight or sometimes 12 so more than double or triple triple so we're going to have a quick look at the new market which is right next to the University New Market is one of the main attraction here of Dhaka and then we go to safin house to meet his family and then we go to explore the rich and modern side of Dhaka so this place is so important for all of us for the students for the politicians for the people of Bangladesh for everyone and this is the university area this is the heart of the political actions and this is also where like thousands of students died yes just few months ago on these streets in this roads thousands of students were killed for me it's hard to believe that because now they look like so peaceful and so quiet it's like a normal Road it's busy but it's just a normal road but literally just what 4 months ago yes here was like a a battle war you can see this is the place from World War II yeah wow like dead body on the floor all the police they're standing with guns they are standing with the tanks and you were here like protesting yes yes so this is the new market of daaka you can buy so many accessories from here yeah shoes clothes so what what can we let's buy a dress for your daughter small dress please okay you choose the one how old is she she's 5 months old 5 months old oh my God so small so I think something like this maybe what color she likes pink uh she didn't have any choice okay what is the price for this one 250 250 220 220 120 huh 12 130 here is very common to bargain in the New Market of Dhaka you must bargain so we got it for 200 taka okay okay don't about so there is a mosque in the middle of the new market we have a strong family Waring m and whenever I see them I can see my father is incomplete with my mother my mother is incomplete with my father and I'm incomplete with my father and mother mhm and my father and mother will be incomplete without I mean incomplete without me yeah so that the problem the problem is you can see in Europe in the west or you can see in Japan Korea there are so many people who can who who have suicide only for the lonely yeah but we have like in Bangladesh India Pakistan we have lot of problems we have unemployment problem we have financial problem we have so many other problems but still we don't need to we don't think about any suicide attempt or depression or depressions because we have a family and we have to live for our family yeah this is have a very strong family V yes this is the this is the strong family connection we have and that's that makes us that makes us life yeah that makes us come out from the depressions yeah the family yes this is the family yeah this is so true in in in West in the Western countries most of the most of the patients are suffering from the depressions yeah because of loneliness and even me when I come here I don't feel depression I don't feel loneliness or is I feel connected to the people it keeps me like alive engaged in fact I don't I don't know him but but still we we can connect with each other I can see that everywhere you go you connect with the people we connect with each other look at this we also connect with him yes how can it be the pr you can ask he can he asks him to take this one how much sir okay okay I take one very good oh this is called tal tal here also the the people tend to have family younger like sooner than in the west that's another problem I think in the west we just keep going like alone sometimes some so many bloggers come to Bangladesh and they show in YouTube that population is the biggest problem problem in in this country Bangladesh India or Pakistan yeah but if population is the problem then how China is so developed China is the biggest population in the world China has the biggest population in the world true now it's India but but India in India they are not like developed that much in Bangladesh we are not develop developed that much because China is using their Manpower and we are unable to use our manp power yeah this is the difference M you're doing it with clothes with the we're doing with our clothes but we don't give Justice to the workers yeah this is the problem yeah whenever I visit a like garments or I talk to a garments worker the conditions are not good they can hardly earn $50 or $60 or $70 per month can you imagine that's nothing man this nothing this is nothing yeah lot of hardship yeah but still the family is what keeps you going because they have family and they can manage within the $60 yeah we made it home
