A World Bank-linked report cited by The Business Standard says the average Bangladeshi earns no more than $250-300 per month, while every citizen carries roughly $646 in foreign debt. Commenters are highlighting the gap between Bangladesh's economic growth narrative and stagnant incomes, with the figure sparking debate about living standards and the country's growing external debt burden.

Why now: The striking contrast between low average incomes and rising per-capita foreign debt is fueling discussion of Bangladesh's economic pressures.
