A local correspondent for the BBC radio here in Dhaka told me about a recent poll that claims Bangladeshis are the happiest people in the world. How on earth could that be? We have all heard the numbers and become desensitized by now. Most people surviving on a dollar a day. A country plagued by environmental disasters, lack of infrastructure, health and education, the list goes on.I decided to ask some friends and colleagues, all from Bangladesh, what they thought the reasons were for this self contentment. As far as I know people here aren’t taking Prozac. Interesting also that no one mentioned the influence of religion.
