- Hello. Glad you joined. Well, I've just set up an Indian Sub-continent Group - that would be a good place to discuss Bangladesh - start a discussion thread there. I'll also message you - you can pick up messages by going to the extreme top left of this page and clicking on the envelope icon. Namo Amida Bu.
