Foreword
This is well known to all that statistics plays a vital role in effective and fruitful
policy formulation and development planning. Realistic and evidence based policy
intervention over the world, thus, requires reliable and precise statistics of the
current period. This is more appropriate for Bangladesh where the need of
accurate, relevant and timely statistics is greater than ever as the country is now
moving forward to graduating as a Middle Income Country in line with Honorable
Prime Ministers Vision 2021.
The Government has put top most priority on the improvement of living standards
of people by taking effective policy on poverty reduction, education, healthcare
system, income equality, gender equality and so forth. The findings of Household
Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES)-2010 and subsequent analytics reveal
that the number of people living under poverty has been reduced to 25%
(approximately). None can imagine a little advancement at national or subnational
level unless updated statistical data are available. In the International arena,
Bangladesh has already been recognized as an active member of the global
statistical community and especially as the pro-active participant of the UN
Statistical Commission (UNSC). Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) has been
following the Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics (FPOS) as developed
by the UN. It has already expanded the dimension of data collection for official
statistics to a great extent under the administrative support and guidance of the
Statistics and Informatics Division (SID) of the Ministry of Planning and in close
coordination with (a) the field administration at all levels ie, Division, District and
Upazila, (b) local government institutions (City corporations, upazilas,
pourashavas and union parishads). Some mentionable recent developments of
Bangladesh in the field of statistics are: (a) Enactment of Statistics Act 2013 and
(b) Adoption of National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS).
th
In this context, I feel delighted to know that BBS is going to publish the 34 issue
of the Statistical Pocketbook of Bangladesh. It is worth mentioning that the
publication would enrich and harmonize policy making process of the nation and it
would, therefore, be a great endeavor on the way to create a prosperous digital
Bangladesh. BBS has been
experiencing in publishing such an annual
publication since 1978. This publication comprises of seventeen chapters in a
brief manner and provides most useful summary statistics on area, population,
demographics, socio-economic characteristics of population, education, health,

agriculture and other aspect of our country.
I would like to convey my sincere thanks to Mr. Golam Mostafa Kamal, Director
General of BBS and his colleagues for bringing out this valuable publication. At
the same time, I express my expectation for their best efforts to publish the
Pocketbook in a much improved form in future. I also appreciate Mr. Md. Aminul
Bar Chowdhury NDC, Joint Secretary (Development), and other colleagues in SID
as well as the members of the Editors Forum for their meticulous and persistent
labour in bringing out this publication.
I hope this publication will serve as a valuable source of information on a wide
range of socio-economic and demographic issues to our public representatives,
policy-makers, officials, planners, researchers, business community, students
and all other data users.

INTRODUCTION
AN OVERVIEW
General
Bangladesh emerged as an independent and sovereign country in
1971 following a nine-months war of liberation. It is one of the largest
deltas of the world with a total area of 147,570 sq. km. With a unique
communal harmony, Bangladesh has a population of about 152.25
(million) as on July-2012 based on population Census making it one of
the densely populated countries of the world. The majority (about 88.8%)
of the people are Muslim & over 98% of the people speak Bangla.The
country is covered with a network of rivers and canals forming a maze of
interconnecting channels.
Being an active partner, Bangladesh plays a vital participatory role
in many international and regional forums, particularly in the UN,
Commonwealth and South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation
(SAARC).
History
Bangladesh has a glorious history and rich heritage. Once it was
known as Sonar Bangla or The Golden Bengal. The territory now
constituting Bangladesh was under Muslim rule for over five and a half
centuries from 1201 to 1757 AD. Subsequently, it came under British rule
following the defeat of the sovereign ruler, Nawab Sirajuddaula, at the
battle of Palassey on 23 June, 1757. The British ruled over the Indian
sub-continent including this territory for nearly 190 years from 1757 to
1947. During that period, Bangladesh was a part of the British Indian
provinces of Bengal and Assam. With the termination of British rule in
August 1947, the sub-continent was partitioned into India and Pakistan.
4
Bangladesh became a part of Pakistan and was called East Pakistan. It
remained under Pakistani rule for about 24 years from August 14, 1947
to March 25, 1971.
Bangladesh was liberated on December 16, 1971 following its victory in
the War of Liberation and appeared on the world map as an independent
and sovereign country.
There is an elected single-house Parliament in Bangladesh, known
as the House of the Nation (Bangladesh Jatiya Sangshad), in which the
legislative power of the Republic is vested. The Speaker presides over
the Parliament. The Prime Minister is the leader of the House, who is
also the Head of the Government, while the President is the Head of the
State. Bangladesh has a general election every five years .
Foreign policy marked by the State shall base its international
relations on the principles of respect for national sovereignty and
equality, non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries,
peaceful settlements of international disputes, and respect for
international law and the principles enunciated in the United Nations
Charter.
Culture
Bangladesh is heir to a rich cultural legacy. In two thousand or
more years of its chequered history, many illustrious
dynasties of kings and Sultans (Muslim Kings) ruled the country and
have left their mark in the shape of magnificent cities and monuments.
Apart from this, the century old cultural tradition can be observer in
innumerable tangible and intangible heritages in archaeological sites,
sculptures, stones and terracotta, architectures, museums, archives,
libraries, classical music, songs and dance, paintings, dramas, folk arts,
festivals, games as well as also in ethnic cultural activities.
The people of Bangladesh are very simple and friendly. Sound

communal harmony among the different religions in this country has
ensured a very congenial atmosphere. More than 75% of the population
live in rural areas. Urbanisation has, however, been rapid in the last few
decades.
Economy
Bangladesh has an agrarian economy, although the share of
agriculture to GDP has been decreasing over the last few years. Yet it
dominates the economy accommodating the major rural labour force.
From a marketing point of view, Bangladesh has been following a mixed
economy that operates on free market principles.
Health system in Bangladesh
Bangladesh has made significant progress in recent times in
many of its social development indicators particularly in the health sector.
The country has made important gains in providing primary health care
since the Alma Ata Declaration in 1978. Health indicators show steady
gains in many respects and the health status of the population has
improved. Infant, maternal and under-five mortality rates have all
decreased over the last decades, with a marked increase in life
expectancy at birth. It has achieved a credible record of sustaining 90%
plus vaccine coverage in routine EPI along with NIDs (National
Immunizations Days) since 1995. But some of this progress is uneven
and there still exists inequalities between different groups and
geographical regions. A major constraint identified towards reaching the
MDGs and other national health goals is shortages in the health
workforce and the uneven skill mix. Like most transitional societies, a
wide range of therapeutic choices are available in Bangladesh, ranging
from self- care to traditional and western medicine. The public sector is
6
largely used for in-patient and preventive care while the private sector is
used mainly for outpatient curative care. Primary Health Care (PHC) has
been chosen by the Government of Bangladesh as a strategy to achieve
the goals of Health for All which is now being implemented as
Revitalized Primary Health Care. In Bangladesh, the status of healthcare
is similar to many developing countries: medical practitioners in
Bangladesh often operate in relative isolation, dealing with diverse health
care needs. Tertiary care hospitals are also concentrated within the
capital and few other major cities.
Forest
Of the total area of Bangladesh, agricultural land makes up 65%
of its geographic surface, forest lands account for almost 17%, while
urban areas are 8% of the area. Water and other land use account for
the remaining 10%. The total forestland includes classified and
unclassified state lands and homestead forests and tea/rubber gardens.
The Hill Forest is mainly situated in Khagrachari, Bandarban and Sylhet.
The total area of the Hill Forest is 670,000 hectare which accounts for
44% of the total area managed by the Forest Department and is 4.54% of
total area of Bangladesh. Sundarban, the worlds largest contiguous
natural mangrove forest in Bangladesh covers an area of 6,017 sq. km
which accounts for 4.07% of total area of Bangladesh and 40% of total
area managed by the Forest Department. The Forestry sector contributes
about 2% of the total GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of Bangladesh.
About 2% (two percent) of the total manpower of the country is engaged
in the forestry sector.

THE NATIONAL STATISTICAL SYSTEM

The statistical system of Bangladesh is centralised in Bangladesh
Bureau of Statistics (BBS). It comprises of seven functional wings. For
policy matters, BBS is under administrative control of Statistics and
Informatics Division(SID), Ministry of Planning.
The Director General is the Chief Executive of BBS. He is
responsible for collecting, processing and disseminating official statistics.
In performing his responsibilities he is assisted by a contingent of officers
and staffs.
The broad functions of BBS are to collect, compile, analyse and
publish statistics on all sectors of the economy to meet the needs of
development planning, research, policy and decision making. BBS is in
charge of conducting the Population Census, Agricultural Census and
Economic Census. Apart from this, national level surveys in the fields of
labour force, demographic situation, agriculture, household income and
expenditure are conducted. Except there, foreign trade statistics and
national income accounts, selected social indicators and socio economic
information relating to all sectors of the national economy are also
compiled and published.
BBS publishes on a regular basis advance releases on Industrial
Production, Consumer Price Indices and Monthly Statistical Bulletins. In
addition to these, three major annual publications viz. Statistical
Yearbook, Agricultural Statistics Yearbook and the Statistical Pocket
Book are published regularly. Moreover, to meet specific needs several
adhoc and subject- specific publications are also published.
25
To achieve the broad objectives of data collection field offices at
district, upazila and thana levels have been established in all over the
country. The district offices are headed by the District Statistical Officers
(DSO), upazila offices are headed by the Upazila Statistical Officers
(USO) and the thana offices located at the metropolitan thanas of 10
(ten) metropolitan cities are headed by the Thana Statisticians(TS). The
puazila/thana offices are responsible for conducting all the activities at
the field level including activities of periodic censuses and surveys.
Statistics collected from other organizations of the government and
autonomous bodies are mostly administrative records (by products) and
they are generated in conventional ways.

INVESTMENT SCENARIO IN BANGLADESH

The Government of Bangladesh has put in place a comprehensive
array of policies aimed at bringing about significant socio-economic
improvements to the people of Bangladesh and ultimately self-reliance for
the nation. In recognition of the private sectors ability to contribute
towards achievement of these goals, the government has recently
implemented a number of significant policy reforms. These are designed
to create a more open and competitive climate for foreign investment.
In order to achieve the objective of accelerating industrial growth
and to gain a greater share of industry in the Gross Domestic Product
(GDP) as well as to make the industrial policy responsive to the changes
occurring in the global economy, the government announced a new
Industrial Policy-2010.
The industrial policy 2010 of Bangladesh proposed an integrated
strategy of economic growth through rapid industrialization. It has been
prepared taking into consideration the governments determination to
achieve millennium development goals by 2015, and halve the number of
the unemployed, and hunger and poverty stricken people by 2017. To
alleviate poverty by creating additional employment opportunities, the
policy aims to create job for one man per family.
The industrial policy envisages rapid industrialization through
short, medium and long term measures for raising the rate of GDP
growth to 8% by 2013, and 10% by 2017. It emphasizes an increase in
the industry sectors share in GDP to 40% by 2021.
27
The industrial policy 2010, recommends for establishing economic
zones, Industrial parks, high tech parks and private EPZs for rapid and
balanced industrial development of the country.
The policy recommends that the public sectors industries will be
complementary and competitive to private sectors industries. Besides,
public-private partnership will be an important element of the industrial
policy.
Reserved sector (public sector) industries:

The following areas are reserved for public sector investment:
1. Arms and ammunitions and other military equipments and
machineries
2. Nuclear power
3. Security printing and minting
4. Afforestation and Mechanized Extraction within the boundary of
reserved forest
28
Private sector investment:

The role of the Private sector has been recognised as a predominant
one. Except reserved sectors, private sector investment has been
kept open without any ceiling. Private investment both local and
foreign or joint venture between local and foreign or with public sector
is allowed.
Massive Establishment of Small, Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and
Cottage Industries in Countrywide Industrialization
The development and expansion of SMEs is regarded as a very
important medium of achieving industrialization and economic growth
in both developed and developing countries. The role of SMEs in
industrial revolution in the industrialized world was enormous, and this
trend has continued to-date. The role of SMEs in generating
investment, savings, profit, employment opportunities, export,
regional industrialization and improvement of peoples living
standards as well as national development is very important. To this
end, forward linkage, backward linkage, value addition activities and
productivity improvement should be accelerated in order to establish
and expand SMEs in the manufacturing sector. As such the SME
sector has been treated as a priority sector in the Industrial Policy
2005.
Scope of SMEs:
1. The structural arrangements of Bangladeshs industries show that
jute, textiles, paper, steel and engineering, cement, chemical, fertilizer
and pharmaceutical industries are under the big and medium scale
industries. On the other hand, specialized textile industries (including
garments), backward linkage industries, hand-operated welding, food
processing and food linkage industries, leather, ceramics, light
engineering including automobiles, basic metal engineering, small
scale chemical engineering, rubber industries, paper printing and
publishing industries, small fabrication industries, non-metal mineral
products, batteries, electrical, electronics, handicrafts, agro-based
industries, multilateral jute goods, silk industries, fruit processing,
poultry farming, fisheries, tea-gardening and processing, vegetable
seed farming, floriculture and agro-forestry, and printing industries,
ginning and baling, construction industries, transportation (including
automobiles), cinema and photography, pathological laboratories,
cold storage, furniture, computer industries, fast food, frozen food,
etc. under service industries and many other sectors are included in
the SMEs.
29
2. SMEs will be established on a greater scale across the

country in order to bring about poverty alleviation, unemployment
reduction and creating more employment opportunity so that national
economic growth can be attained. To this end, the government has
taken an initiative to draw up a separate SME policy with a view to
providing necessary guidelines and strategic assistance in respect of
establishing SMEs throughout the country. The guidelines and
strategy incorporated in the relevant policies will be pursued in
establishing and expanding SMEs of all kinds throughout the
country.
Foreign investment :
1.
Foreign direct investment will be encouraged in all industries in

Bangladesh except those in the reserved lists, banking, insurance
and other financial institutions. This type of investments can be
made in local public and private sectors individually or jointly. The
capital market will be open for portfolio investments.
2.
The legal framework for foreign investments has been drawn up on

the basis of the Foreign Investment (Development and Preservation)
Act 1980. The framework is as follows:
Equal treatment of both local and foreign investments.
Safeguarding foreign investments from state expropriation.
Assurance of repatriating finance and profit deriving from share
disposal.
3.
There will be no restrictions to foreign investment in terms of equity

participation, i.e., 100% foreign equity can be invested. While setting
up industries with complete foreign investment or in joint venture,
there will be no restrictions to the sale of shares through public issue
irrespective of paid-up capital. However, foreign investors or
institutions can purchase shares through Stock Exchange as per
guidelines framed by the concerned authority. Foreign investors or
institutions can avail loan from local banks to meet their running
costs. Conditions for such type of loan will be determined on the
basis of the relations between the bank and the borrower.

Privatization Commission of Bangladesh

The privatization Commission which came into being in March, 1993
is entrusted with the overall responsibility of privatizing State-owned
Enterprises identified for privatization, whether small, large, profitable or
non-profitable.
Privatization in Bangladesh has gone through various phases since
its Independence. Just after the war of Independence in 16 December
1971, the Government had to step in to fill the vacuum in the economy as
the then-owners, abandoned their properties and left the country. In
addition, the nationalization policy of March, 1972 of major industries like
Jute, Textile, Chemical and other basic industries, DFIs, Banks and
Insurance etc. brought into fold nearly 90% of such enterprises under
Government control. However these public sector enterprises right from
inception could not run profitably and efficiently and many of them ran
into severe financial difficulties and serious management problems. As
stated earlier, by 1975, the Government began to reverse its policy of
nationalization due to the heavy burdens created by the public sector
enterprises on the national exchequer. During the period 1976-1992
about 500 SOEs had been sold or returned to their former owners. Since
the creation of Privatzation Commission as the special agency in March,
1993 by the Government to implement the programme of divestiture of
SOEs. Till to-date 71 (51 as enterprise & 20 by offloading shares) SOEs
got the final approval for sale from the GOB. It is worth mentioning that
51 (Fifty one) SOEs have so far been handed over to the new buyers
since March, 1993. LOI (Letter of Intent) have been issued for 4 (Four)
SOEs to be handed over to the new buyers during the same period.
Moreover, decision to off-load the shares of 20 (Twenty) public limited
companies have been taken.
Before inviting tender for sale of the identified SOEs, valuations of
the assets and liabilities are made by Chartered Accountant (C.A) firms
or by the consultants engaged by the Commission. Valuation reports are
examined and reviewed by the Privatization Commission and a revaluation can be made by another C.A firm/valuer firm if considered
necessary. Tenders are invited after the finalization of the valuation.
Valuation and other relevant documents are made available to the
prospective bidders before submission of the bids.
In the case of sale of enterprise, the prospective buyers will submit
quotation according to the terms and conditions of the tender.
Value of current assets such as sundry debtors, advances etc. will
be payable to the Government by the buyer either in cash or within one
year along with a simple interest rate of 10% per annum.
44
In the cases mentioned above the buyer will have to provide

irrevocable bank guarantee without recourse in case the payment is not
made in cash.
Short-term liabilities such as, sundry creditors, claims of employees
and workers over by the Government.
As regards employees of the tendered enterprise (if it is a running
one) the Corporation and the buyer will jointly determine the number of
redundant employees in the light of technical and operational feasibility.
Retained employees, however, will be offered new terms and conditions
by the buyer.
Buyers will be liable to pursue all pending court cases.
Land under the enterprise will be used normally for establishment
and expansion of industries. A substantial amount of unutilized but
developed land can, however, be used for other productive activities.
In case of sale of Government-owned shares in different companies
the prospective buyers will submit quotations for the total number of
shares offered for sale. The company whose shares are offered for sale,
will repay all quasi-equity loans of the Government and dues of the
Corporations witiin a period of 10 years in 6-monthly instalment carrying a
simple interest of 10% per annum and will submit an irrevocable bank
guarantee without recourse from a scheduled bank. In addition to the
above, the buyer will also give a personal irrevocable bank guarantee
without recourse for the above quasi-equity loans and dues or will keep
the share certificates of all the shares bought by him under the custody of
the Government.
While implementing the policy of privatization, efforts will be made
to make the ownership of the industrial enterprises as broad-based, as
possible.

NATIONAL ENERGY POLICY

In recognition of the importance of energy in socio-economic
development, the Government of Bangladesh has given continuing
attention to the overall development of energy sector. It involved survey,
exploration, exploitation and distribution of indigenous natural gas;
establishment of petroleum refining facility and distribution systems; and
establishment of power generation plants and networks for transmission
and distribution of electricity. During last one decade, about 20 percent of
total public sector investment was allocated for the development of
energy sector.
Per-capita consumption of commercial energy and generation of
electricity in 2000 were about 200 KGOE/year and 120 kWH/year
respectively. Per capita consumption of commercial energy and electricity
in Bangladesh in one of the lowest among the developing countries. At
present about 65% of total final energy consumption is met by different
type of biomass fuels (e.g. agricultural residues, wood fuels, animal dung
etc.).
47
In 2000 only 2.2% of total households (mostly in urban areas) had
piped natural gas connections for cooking and 30% of households had
electricity connections and only 3.9% of total households used kerosene
for cooking.
The Government formulated and announced the first National Energy
Policy (NEP) of the country in 1996 to ensure proper exploration,
production, distribution and rational use of energy sources to meet the
growing energy demand of different zones, consuming sectors and
consumers groups on a sustainable basis. With rapid change of global as
well as domestic situation the government has updated this NEP in 2004.
The objectives of the revised National Energy Policy (NEP) are as
follows:
(i)
To provide energy for sustainable economic growth so that
the economic development activities of different sectors are
not constrained due to shortage of energy.
(ii) To meet the energy needs of different zones of the country
and socio-economic groups.
(iii) To ensure optimum development of all the indigenous
energy sources.
(iv) To ensure sustainable operation of the energy utilities.
(v) To ensure rational use of total energy sources.
(vi) To ensure environmentally sound sustainable energy
development programmes causing minimum damage to
environment.
(vii) To encourage public and private sector participation in
development and management of the energy sector.
(viii) To bring entire country under electrification by the year
2020.
(ix) To ensure reliable supply of energy to the people at
reasonable and affordable price.
(x) To develop a regional energy market for rational exchange
of commercial energy to ensure energy security.
Note: For details, users are advised to refer to national energy policy published by the ministry of
power, energy and mineral resources, GOB.

PRIVATE SECTOR POWER GENERATION POLICY OF

BANGLADESH
The PRIVATE SECTOR POWER GENERATION POLICY OF
BANGLADESH was approved by the Government with a view to boosting up
private sector power generation in the country. The government of Bangladesh
(GOB) recognizes that the pace of power development has to be accelerated in
order to achieve overall economic development targets of the country and avoid
looming power shortages. At present only 15% of Bangladesh population has
access to electricity.
1.
Presently, there state-owned enterprises generate and transmit electricity in

the country. They are:
a) Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB), responsible for
generation and transmission of power in the urban areas except the area
under Greater Dhaka;
b) Dhaka Electricity Supply Authority (DESA), responsible for distribution of
electricity in the greater Dhaka area including the metropolitan city of
Dhaka; and
c) Rural Electrification Board (REB), responsible for distribution of electricity
in rural areas.
* At present 11666 GWH electricity is generated annually in the country.
Power System Master Plan (PSMP) projects a requirement of 16500
GWH in 2000 and 24160 GWH in 2005. This implies an increase in
peak demand from the present 2200 MW to 3150 MW by 2000 and
4600 MW by 2005 for which capacity addition of about 3350 MW will be
required by 2005. Hence on average, additional 300 MW of generation
capacity has to be added every year. The total investment between now
and 2005, required to achieve such capacity enhancement, is Taka 176
billion or US$ 4.4 billion. The corresponding investment requirement for
expansion and reinforcement of transmission and distribution system
would be about US$ 2.2 billion for the same period, bringing the grand
total to US$ 6.6 billion.
*
Such a huge investment on the part of the GOB is almost impossible,

Government, therefore, has amended its Industrial Policy following the
recommendation of the Inter-Ministerial-Working Group for Power
Sector Reform. As per the revised policy the Government is strongly
committed to attract private investment for installing new power
generation capacity on a Build-own-operate (BOO) basis.
49
2. Gob policy and the power cell:
In order to translate this explicit policy of the Government into actual

investment projects, Government of Bangladesh created and set up a Power
Cell under the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) in 1995. All
the responsibilities of private sector power development lie with the cell. The
cell will solicit and evaluate proposals, negotiate and process award of
contracts and finalize projects. At the same time it will represent interest of
Government of Bangladesh in the private sector power project.
Solicitation of proposals : Independent Power Producers Projects will be
implemented on Build-own-operate (BOO) basis. Before submission of the
RFP (request for proposal) the bidders will have to pre qualify as per criteria
published in the National and International Press. Proposals of the pre
qualified bidders will be ranked as per criteria and acceptance will be given
accordingly. The first ranked bidder will be given a stipulated period to (a)
submit a performance guarantee and (b) reach financial closure. After that
the bidders will be required to complete financing arrangements. The bidder
will also have to ensure security package through three separate
agreements: (a) Model Implementation Agreement (IA), (b) Power Purchase
Agreement (PPA) and (c) Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA).
3. Allocation of project/plant site and provision of fuel :

The plant site will be selected by Government of Bangladesh in
consultation with the project sponsor. The fuel supply will also be determined
by GOB keeping in view the existing fuel situation of the country.
4. Tariff for bulk purchase of power at busbar :
The produced power will be purchased (as per PPA) by
BPDB/DESA/REB or any distribution company to be created in future and it
will be decided by Government of Bangladesh. Tariff will be divided into two
parts:
(a) Capacity payment-in local currency in case of local payment and in
foreign currency in case of foreign payment.
(b) Energy payment-all in local currency. They will have to meet other tariff
requirements as per RFP.
5. Fiscl incentives :
The private power companies will be given some fiscal incentives such as
exemption from corporate Income Tax for a period of 15 years. Customs and
VAT free import of plant and equipment, repatriation of equity and dividend,
exemption of Income Tax of foreign Investors in Bangladesh, Insurance
facilities according to their own choice, instruments and deeds exempted
from stamp duties, all industrial facilities as Power Generation declared as
Industry, raising local and foreign finance as per BOI Investment Rules and
indigenous equipment support.
6. In case of any ambiguity with regard to interpretation of any provision of this
policy documents the GOB interpretation shall be final.
Note: For details, users are advised to refer to national energy policy published by the ministry of
power, energy and mineral resources, GOB.

Notes:
1. All other fruits includes papaya, lemon, litchi, lime & lemon, ber, guava, etc.
2. Deduction for seeds & wastage etc. of rape & mustard oil seeds has been taken as 8% of total
production and oil equivalent has been taken as 33% of remaining portion. Net availability of rape &
mustard oils is calculated by deducting industrial use as 15% of oil products.
3. Considering 95% crude soyabean oil as refined + imported refined soyabean oil = total availability
of consumption. Hence, its local production need not to be considered.
4. Other edible oil includes cocoanut oil, til oil, castor oil and other vegetable oil, etc.
i) The figure of cocoanut oil are worked out by considering 18% of net production of cocoanut as
carnel of which 62% is taken as oil equivalent, 10% of cocoanut oil has been deducted as industrial
use. ii) In case of til, castor and other vegetable oil 8% of til, castor & other vegetable oil seeds has
been deducted as seeds & wastage from gross production and 33% is taken as oil equivalent of the
net production. 5% of til & castor oil has been deducted as industrial use.
5. 2.5% of chillies, 5% of turmaric, onion has been deducted as seeds & wastage.
6. Other condiments and spices includes ginger, corriander, cumin seed, cardamom, tejpata, cloves,
black pepper and pudina etc. 5% of corriander and 4.5% of ginger has been deducted as seeds and
wastage.
7. Availability for human consumption of gur and molasses has been calculated as 85% of total
production.
8. 3.2% of betel leaves has been deducted as wastage.

Assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the national statistical system

and identifying appropriate ways of improving skills and competencies of the
statistical workforce.

II. The Situation of Statistics in Bangladesh in 2012
The National Statistical system of Bangladesh is centralized, where Bangladesh
Bureau of Statistics (BBS) is thee national agency mandated by the Government
and also entrusted by the Statistics Act 2013 to produced and disseminate all
sorts of Statistics of the country. The Bureau conducts a number of surveys and
other data compilation exercises every year, either as a regular activity or on an
ad-hoc basis. Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) has a strong and Potential
infrastructure to operate its functions. It enjoys a good reputation with established
processes for the regular collection of data and the production of statistics. To
collect and disseminate statistics, BBS follows, as much as possible, existing laws,
sound methodologies, a well-defined operations plan, specific time schedules,
modern technologies and international standards. BBS has established formal
data exchange protocols with a number of local institutions, and regional and
international organizations. As part of the data production process, BBS also
maintains a Geographic Information System (GIS), where modern technology is
utilized to produce digital mapping. The most significant strength of the BBS is its
infrastructural set up at headquarters and at the regional and Upazila level with
equipment and computer facilities and regular funding by government. At the
same time, it has also received technical assistance from development partners
and it is expected that this technical assistance will continue in the near future.
The BBS however suffers from several weaknesses. The main concerns are:
problems related to data production including inadequate documentation of
methods, weak infrastructure and inadequate financial resources; problems
related to data dissemination include the duplication of sources, inadequate
metadata and poor access by users; management and coordination problems
include the lack of a strong legal mandate, limited training capacity, lack of
expertise, poor ICT infrastructure and inadequate coordination between BBS and
other data producers.
513
There are however many opportunities. The preparation of this National Strategy
for the Development of Statistics in Bangladesh supported by a grant from the
World Banks Trust Fund for Statistical Capacity Building provides an important
opportunity to promote a sustained improvement in the national statistical system.
It will also support better statistical operations, and more cooperation between
producers and users. The governments promotion of administrative reform
provides an opportunity to establish units for the production of statistical data
needed for policy design and decision making in a number of agencies. The
experience the BBS has accumulated over the last five decades on statistical
work, statistical infrastructure, the confidence, reliability and positive reputation it
has gained through the recently conducted Population and Housing Census and
its good relations with users in Bangladesh as well as regional and international
organizations, statistical and non-statistical alike, all represent opportunities that
can be utilized in developing the national statistical system. Development partners
also have a keen interest in the development of the statistical system of the
country.
The most common threats to the BBS include: outdated and inadequate
legislation; lack of firm commitments by development partners and the
Government to provide the investment that will be needed to implement the
NSDS; an increasing lack of awareness of the importance of statistics among
policy designers and decision makers; lack of cooperation between producers and
users; flexible to the adoption of the concept of evidence-based policy making by
decision makers; negligence in following modern and scientific methods in data
gathering; and the non-adoption of international guidelines related to classification,
definitions, and statistical standards resulting in the production of data that is not
comparable to that of other countries.
514
III. The Vision and Mission of the Bangladesh Statistical System and
Strategic Priorities
The vision of the National Statistical System of practices.
In order to achieve the vision and put the mission into effect, within the proposed
budget and capacity, the following priorities areas are proposed ove Bangladesh is
to become a world-class provider of authentic, relevant and timely data in a holistic
and user-friendly manner. The mission of the NSS is: (1) to establish an
integrated, professional, efficient and effective national statistical system, under
the guidance and leadership of the BBS; and (2) to produce official statistics that
meet the current and evolving needs of national and international users in a
transparent and timely fashion, using international standards and the best
statistical r the next ten years:
i.
Focusing on improving the quality, coverage and use of core

statistics required for national planning, economic management and for
monitoring progress towards national goals.
As part of this process
important intermediate targets are to meet and to subscribe to the IMFs

Special Data Dissemination Standard (SDDS) by 2016.
ii.
Strengthening the professionalism of the national statistical system,

which involves: increasing the skills and expertise of the work-force and
increasing the proportion of the staff with professional qualifications;
providing strong professional leadership for BBS and the statistical system
generally; and developing and strengthening internal procedures to make
the statistical system more open and accountable and to build trust in
statistical products.
Key targets include putting in place a statement of
statistical ethics and standards that all participants in the national statistical
system agree to follow and to have a formal national quality assurance
framework for Bangladesh.
iii.
Enhancing capacity to collect, compile, disseminate and, especially,

use statistics at the local level, providing statistical information to help
515
empower the citizens of Bangladesh. It is expected that this would link
directly to the Governments Digital Bangladesh initiative. Key targets are to
have a basic level of statistical capacity in all Upazilas by 2016.
iv.
Promoting and strengthening access to and the use of official

statistics at all levels of society, based on an open-data strategy.
Important intermediate targets include having a formal statistical data
dissemination policy in place for all components of the national statistical
system, establishing a national data archive and ensuring that all statistical
activities are properly documented.
One specific aim of the NSS of Bangladesh is to produce good quality official
statistics using the best statistical practices. At the same time, the aim will be to
ensure that the NSS has the mandate and the capacity to compile, disseminate
and improve the coverage and quality of all key data series that are essential for
formulating and implementing government policies and programmes. It is
important that the NSS produces the statistical data that is required to support the
evaluation and monitoring of the development strategies and frameworks of the
country.
To ensure that official statistics in Bangladesh are trusted, it is essential that all
statistical agencies in the NSS produce and disseminate statistics in line with
international standards and principles. In addition, provision should be made to
allow access to micro-data for research purposes, in accordance with an
established policy which ensures statistical confidentiality. Supplementary
explanatory information and metadata, which are necessary for the proper
understanding of the statistics and the appropriate uses to which they can be put,
should be made available by all statistical agencies. An important part of the
NSDS will be to improve awareness about the importance and availability of timely
and reliable official statistics and to promote their more effective use. An additional
concern will be to build awareness among data providers as well as users.
516
The NSS needs to be independent in terms of: a) its development (activities
aiming at setting up, strengthening and improving statistical methods, standards
and procedures used for the production and dissemination of statistics as well as
designing new statistics and indicators); b) production (i.e. the selection of
techniques, definitions, methodologies and sources relating to the collection,
storage, processing and analysis necessary for compiling statistics); and c)
dissemination (i.e. the content and timing of all forms of dissemination) of statistics
and the roles and responsibilities of the statistical agencies. In addition,
coordination of the work of the different elements of the national statistical system
is essential for improving and maintaining the quality of official statistics. This will
include regular meetings to develop statistical standards and guidelines, to
exchange technical knowledge and to identify good statistical practices. In BSS
professionalism, leadership, coordination and management could be improved
radically by enacting the draft statistical law, and this will be an early part of
implementing the NSDS.
Strong physical and statistical infrastructures support and make possible the
production and dissemination of statistics. At present, however, the physical and
statistical infrastructure in the BBS is very weak. In order to address this situation,
the NSDS emphasises the need for following supporting mechanisms to be put in
place during the NSDS period: (i) providing and updating ICT equipment including
computers and networking equipment, appropriate software, survey equipment,
establishing office buildings at field level and improving the GIS for statistical
mapping; (ii) preparing a complete Business Register and updating it regularly; (iii)
developing a National Population Register (NPR) to have a good basis for
demographic statistics; (iv) establishing a Statistical Data Bank with
517
access for all users; (v) establishing policies and guidelines with respect to staff
matters and the development of human resources; (vi) improving the sampling
frame for household and other surveys; (vii) adopting global methodologies and
classifications of statistics to improve data quality, consistency, security and data
accuracy and reliability of various data sets; (viii) formulating a comprehensive
approach and practices as to develop, update and disseminate metadata.

520
V. Developing the Capacity of Other Data Producers
During the consultations for the NSDS it became clear that the links between the
BBS and the other producers were very limited and immediate improvements in
coordination were needed. Based on the consultations a full list of partners in the
NSS was established, and an initial set of 15 agencies was identified for
immediate inclusion in the NSDS: (1) Bangladesh Bank, (2) Ministry of Finance,
(3) Ministry of Agriculture, (4) Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, (5) Ministry of
Education, (6) Ministry of Primary and Mass Education, (7) Ministry of Social
Welfare, (8) Ministry of Women and Children Affairs, (9) Local Government
Division, (10) Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief, (11) Ministry of Labour
and Employment, (12) Ministry of Food and Disaster Management, (13) Ministry of
Environment and Forest, (14) Ministry of Public Administration, and (15) Ministry of
Communication.
Strategic Actions for Building the Capacity of Other Data Producers include the
following.
First, establishing Statistical Cells of the BBS in all the first phase
ministries and agencies during the implementation period of NSDS, and later in
other ministries/agencies, which are, at present out of scope of NSDS, but which
are significant in data production, to promote consultation and coordination. They
will provide overall management and policy guidance to the ministries and will
review and harmonize all statistical concepts, classifications and methods used by
them in data collection, processing and dissemination. Furthermore, they will be
responsible for compiling statistics from the data of the respective ministry.
Second, signing Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) between the BBS and
other agencies so as to build a strong and sustainable relationship with them.
Third, creating scope to use, where possible, the field strength of the
ministries/agencies during censuses or large scale surveys, which will help
accelerate the statistical work and improve data quality at low cost.
521
VI. Developing the Capacity for Local Level Statistics
Strategic Actions for Improving the Capacity to Collect and Compile Statistical
Data at the Local Level include: (i) mobilizing enumerators, who will be assigned
for data collection for all surveys and censuses, at each Union on a three year
contract. The Union Parishad Building will be used as the office, and hence, no
separate office building will be required at Union level, which will make the process
cost-effective; (ii) opening statistical offices at Division and District level as quickly
as possible through which supervisory work could be done more intensively and
closely; (iii) increasing manpower at Upazila Statistical Offices; (iv) establishing
office buildings at Division and District offices and facilitating the necessary
logistics, vehicles and modern IT; and (v) development of a Local Area Network
(LAN) in Upazilas, districts and divisions.
Strategic Actions for Reducing costs by improving the efficiency of data
collection include: (i) Providing Tablet PCs to all enumerators, two in each Union,
to ensure accurate and timely data collection; (ii) forming a Voluntary Working
Group at Union Level including the students from schools and colleges, Ansar &
VDP etc. who will maintain coordination with the BBS to provide any type of
statistical information and service; (iii) developing and compiling quality indicators
to improve the use of administrative data at local level for various statistical
purposes; (iv) ensuring more effective use of field workers providing more and
better training and coordinating the scheduling of field work; and (v) moving
towards using mail method and/or the Internet for enterprise-based surveys rather
than using face to face interviews.
Strategic Actions for Supporting Planning and Implementation in Upazilas and
Unions include: (i) preparing Union and Upazila Profiles, similar to the District
Profiles incorporating all the basic statistics relating to all sectors and also some
time series and keeping it updated regularly to the extent possible; (ii) using the
522
IT facilities e.g. Union Information and Service Centre (UISC) already
available at each Union in order to promote the dissemination, storage and
archiving of data so that statistics can be made more readily available to planner
as well as people more generally; and (iii) collecting and preparing statistics
regularly on the progress of different development programmes implemented by
the government under the Sixth FYP, Perspective Plan, MDGs etc. to facilitate
proper monitoring and evaluation.
VII. Implementation Plan and Budgeting
The estimated investment cost of implementing the NSDS over the ten year period
from 2013 to 2023 is Taka 46801.87 million, (about US$578 million). Of this
amount Taka 23933.65 million (51 per cent) is for the three year period from July
2013 to June 2016 and Taka 22868.22 million (49 per cent) for the period from
July 2016 to June 2023. The single largest cost is estimated to be the National
Population Register in the initial three year period, accounting for 12,000 million
Taka, with an additional 8,400 million Taka for the next population census. Taking
into account the expected contribution of Government through the Medium Term
Budget Framework and support from agreed or anticipated donor projects, the
financing gap for the first phase of the NSDS to June 2016 is estimated to be 8214
million Taka (yearly average 2738 million Taka) or about US$ 101 million (yearly
average US$34 million).
523
The Government of Bangladesh is unlikely to be able to finance the plan from its
own resources, especially in the earlier years, so development partners support
will be required. The development partner group set up during the design stage of
NSDS and including all development partners interested in statistical development
in Bangladesh will be approached to consider financing elements of the NSDS.
The World Bank will also be approached to support the implementation of the
NSDS through their statistical capacity building programme (STATCAP).
Currently, government allocations are placed in three categories: revenue
expenditure; allocation under Mid-term Budgetary Framework (MTBF); and
allocation for various projects. The government has already pledged to provide
around Tk.200.00 million each year in the next four years, under the MTBF for
development expenditure.
It is proposed that an initial financing plan will be prepared for the first phase of the
NSDS up to June 2016, including development partners support. Beyond this, it
is anticipated that further support from the development partners will be required,
but on a gradually reducing basis. From 2023 onwards it is expected that the
Bangladesh Statistical System will stand on a very strong pillar and regular finance
will be the responsibility of the government alone.
VIII: Monitoring Progress -Measuring and Reporting Results
To maintain and enhance public trust and confidence in the integrity of official
statistics, the BBS will follow strictly professional guidelines and ethics, in line with
the UNs Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics. The BBS will monitor the
implementation of the strategic plan and will assess the extent to which it is
building trust among users. In order to do this, it will carry out a customer
satisfaction survey at least once every three years.
524
To achieve the vision, it is proposed to monitor the performance of the BBS
and the national statistical system as a whole including coverage, data quality and
the use of statistics on the basis of a few core indicators as follows: (i) overall user
satisfaction monitored from time to time through a user satisfaction survey based
on the NQAF; (ii) maintaining compliance with the requirements of GDDS; (iii)
subscribing to the SDDS and continuing compliance with the requirements of the
SDDS as monitored regularly by the IMF; (iv) ensuring that the World Banks
Statistical Capacity Indicator for Bangladesh increases over time to around 90 by
June 2016; (v) implementing the recommendations of the Busan Action Plan for
Statistics.
IX: Implementation Arrangements
The NSDS will be implemented through the existing structure of the BBS. Eight
Wings of the BBS will be responsible independently for the successful
implementation of activities in the areas for which they have responsibility. The
Director of the Wing will supervise implementation, but day to day activities will be
managed and led by an officer at Deputy Director or Joint Director Level. A
technical committee headed by the Director General of the BBS and comprised of
all Directors as member and representatives from other ministries/agencies will
provide the managerial and technical advice for the successful completion of all
the programs under the NSDS. It will cover the following areas: (i) financial
management and control, including internal audit; (ii) management of the
procurement function, including technical assistance, goods and services and
training services; (iii) administrative support; and (iv) monitoring and reporting of
progress.
525
Implementation of the NSDS will involve coordination between a numbers of
different agencies, including some of the development partners. The NSDS has
been prepared based on a participatory approach and a Focal Point Group,
including representatives from the main development partners, has already been
set up.
A number of consultations have been carried out with a number of
development partners agencies and they have been involved in the preparation
process. For the implementation, this engagement will continue and it is important
that arrangements are put in places that are able to meet the needs of the
different development partners as well as the Bangladesh government.
The BBS is required to follow the monitoring and reporting system of government
as well as development partners for all statistical activities. Progress is discussed
regularly in two forums: monthly coordination meetings chaired by the Director
General of the BBS and a monthly coordination meeting of the Statistics and
Informatics Division chaired by the Secretary.
Information about statistical
activities is published regularly on the BBS web-site. It is proposed to use all of

these mechanisms to release information on the implementation progress of
NSDS and the results that have already been achieved. Information on the
indicators and progress towards various targets and milestones will be updated on
the web-site as it becomes available.
