ED: Getting rid of the roadblocks

Bangladesh has always scored rather poorly on the Ease of Doing Business index

Business in Bangladesh has come a long way in this past decade, but the reality of the matter is that we are still underperforming -- in spite of having all the talent, the resources, the right ideas, and the dedication.

There is a very simple reason for this. Because of all the rules and regulations, the red tape, the oceans of paperwork, it is notoriously hard to start a business in Bangladesh using the proper channels, and thereafter, it is even harder to keep it going.
