  1. Prince Vijaya's (the first Siṅhalese king's) ancestry came from Vaṅga and Kalinga (present-day Bangla/Bengal and Odisha). But, the Siṅhalese apparently feel no desire or duty to reintegrate with or protect the Theravāda communities near Kolkata, Chittagong, etc. Why?

  3. 🌏 With the US conducting high-profile military drills near India’s borders in Bangladesh’s Chittagong, the South Asian security landscape is changing. India now faces new diplomatic and security puzzles. What’s driving Washington’s actions—and how might New Delhi counterbalance this?

  5. Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

    Eine Millionenstadt geht unter.
    Chittagong in #Bangladesch ist eine der zehn am schnellsten sinkenden Küstenstädte der Welt. Viele Menschen sind in diese Stadt gezogen, weil sie vor Klimakatastrophen in anderen Gegenden des Landes geflohen sind. Da #Chittagong mehrere Stunden am Tag unter Wasser steht, ist es wahrscheinlich, dass sie bald wieder wegmüssen. #Klimakrise #Wasserkrise de.qantara.de/inhalt/klimawand

  6. Japancasting Episode 18: "Bangladesh Hospital Report in English and Japanese"
    Osaka Jogakuin College (OJC) students report on their visit to #Chittagong, #Bangladesh. OJC students contributed to start a charitable children's #hospital ward. These students speak bilingually, so it provides a lesson in either #Japanese or #English as a Foreign #Language. After the students’ presentation, I interviewed a student. That script is available for English learners to read while listening, in the blog post by Parveen Sharma at eklavyaparv.com/edusomedia/jap

    While Bangladesh was struggling to develop, Japanese students were able to develop international social consciousness and, as a result, greater self-awareness.
