B) Write a paragraph on "Solar energy for
future Bangladesh" in English. [10 marks]
Answer:
Bangladesh is one of the densely populated
countries of the world. But we do not have
sufficient supply of energy. In Bangladesh,
almost 80% of the people live in the village
Page 13
Recent JOB Solution Bangladesh Petroleum Exploration & Production Company (BAPEX)-2017
Job Publications Ltd. 13 wbðq bvgvh Akøxj I g›` KvR †_‡K ~‡i iv‡L!
and only 32% of total population is
connected to grid electricity. The country's
electricity distribution board is not capable
to cope with the exponential growth in
demand for power in the capital and all over
the country. To meet the existing energy
demand, there is no alternative to renewable
energies such as solar, wind, biomass etc.
The possibilities of using solar power are
already being tested and will mostly
increase. Using solar energy, simply, is a
process which can provide energy from the
sun. Photovoltaic panel (PV panels made of
silicon) is the tool to harness solar energy. A
solar panel is mainly made from
semiconductor materials such as silicon,
gallium, arsenide etc. Though the initial
price of installment is higher, it is expected
that the price will go down within next 5
years. Considering the cost and inherent
advantage of non-requirement of fuel, solar
PV applications have great potential for both
on grid and off grid applications,
particularly the off grid rural areas. If we
consider riverine territory of Bangladesh,
there are vast 'Char' and delta areas where
establishment of long transmission and
distribution lines are not economically
viable. So, what we see today as a
moderately expensive energy solution is
going to become a very attractive economic
solution very soon. In conclusion,
Bangladesh has adopted a renewable energy
policy to generate 10% of its energy from
renewable sources by 2020. This is no doubt
a very ambitious target, attaining even 50%
of the set target can be considered an
applauding achievement and can make a
very big difference so far the rural economy
and quality of living standard of the country
is concerned.

Part II : Written Test; Marks: 20
A) Write an Essay on 'The Challenges of
Achieving Middle Income Country Status for
Bangladesh'. 15
Bangladesh is now accredited as one of the
next 11 emerging economies. Very few people
envisioned in 1971 that 45 years later
Bangladesh would encompass almost $32
billion reserve. Overcoming myriad crisis,
Bangladesh has indeed made substantial
progress during the past four and a half
decades. Now Bangladesh aims to be a
middle-income country by 2021.
Its per capita income is now 1602 us dollar and
foreign investment is nearly $2.23 billion.
Women participation in labour force has
increased to 41%, literacy rate to 63% while
school dropout rate has reduced to 20.4%.
There are now 143 schemes of social safety net.
Poverty rate is also on the decline.
It means our country is experiencing economic
boom. Six ongoing mega projects testify such
claim. First of all, with a cost of $2.9 to $3.7
billion, Padma bridge is expected to open
before the end of 2018 linking Louhajong,
Munsiganj to Madaripur and Shariatpur. Mass
people of southern region will get maximum
benefits from it. Secondly, Metro Rail Project
(rail route from Uttara to Bangladesh bank)
will smoothen the communication system
within the capital. Thirdly, Ruppur Nuclear
Power Plant will bring about some huge
changes in the national power productivity.
Moreover projects like Rampal Power Project,
Paira Deep Sea Port and Matarbari Coal Power
Plant will definitely change our economic
condition for better.
Though all these are yet to complete, but when
these projects will end, these will massively
affect the economic growth of the country.

Bangladesh is also a leading global exporter of
ready-made garment products. McKinsey
recently predicted that apparel exports could
gross $36 billion by 2020. Goldman Sachs
highlighted Bangladesh as one of the next 11
emerging economies and JP Morgan identified
it as a ‘Frontier Five’ regarding the booming
economy.
Moreover relations with India and China have
opened avenues of cooperation due to the
landmark visits of our prime minister to both
these countries. Relationships with Myanmar
and Bhutan have considerably been improved.
The government has tackled the chronic power
and energy scarcity taking different short, mid
and long-term plants. Now Bangladesh can
generate 14980 megawatts power. The telecom
sector, with nearly 100 million cell phone
subscribers, has attracted FDI. Now the
number of internet subscribers are 6.36 crore.
Apart from these achievements, Bangladesh
has also taken a leading role in the UN
peacekeeping missions to enhance peace,
promote dialogue and encourage cooperation.
Bangladesh has become a brand name in UN
peacekeeping as a top contributor
participating in more than 51 missions
involving 1,21,407 peacekeepers since 1988.
Bangladesh is also the birthplace of
microcredit, pioneered by the Nobel Peace
Prize recipient, Professor Muhammad Yunus –
the founder of Grameen Bank. The Bank’s
approach has been replicated in more than 100
countries.
