Bangladesh had a GDP per capita of $1855 in 2019, higher than the Netherlands' $1835 in 1966 (measured in current US dollars) https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.PCAP.CD?location... Naively using GDP per capita as a measure of the average level of technology people can afford, this suggests that Bangladesh should be able to employ land reclamation measures similar to the Netherlands in the 1960s, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flevopolder There might be other considerations (such as differing geography) that make this impracticable, however. |
