    White appliance is a foreign company and it’s trying to get in Bangladeshi market. In Bangladesh the average monthly income is about 500 dollar a month which is 35000 in Taka. So the income scale is medium. According to our survey we figured out that microwave oven is used by the people whose income scale is about 70000-80000 or higher in the month. If we consider the social class, we found the people from the higher and higher middle class are using the microwave oven and the rest of the people are comfortable with the gas stove. In Bangladesh, the market of microwave oven is not that good enough. Our company cannot sustain in this limited amount of market. The company actually wants a huge market to do business. In this case, we got only one option and that s to expand the usage of microwave oven in the country and to do so we need to target a new segment. We can’t just work on only two classes. Rather we need to concentrate on the middle class and upcoming middle class people.…

    Every political establishment in Bangladesh has left its imprint on the constitution. Amending a constitution is not a new thing. As a human document it has required changes everywhere based on human experiences. The case of Bangladesh is different. It has not been an exercise in improvement. Every establishment has had its own political compulsion in the amendments brought in by it severally and every other establishment has had its own urge to erase what the earlier one did. The original constitution of 1972 has become a plaything to be engaged, rather shuttlecock to be hit, in their respective styles and need.The constitution of Bangladesh has so far been amended fifteen times. The first, second, third and fourth amendments were made by Awami League government of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the fifth through martial law regulations and the Bangladesh Nationalist Party, sixth by BNP, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th by Jatiya Party, 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th by BNP and the last 15th amendment by Awami League-led alliance. The major amendments are as follows:…
