DHAKA -- Doubts over the accuracy of Bangladeshi statistics have cemented further with the recent revelation of big mismatch in export data, deepening the necessity of scrutinizing all of the data provided by the government.
Bangladesh's central bank in early July published "corrected" export data for the period of July 2023 to April 2024, saying that the actual exports during that period were worth $33.67 billion, although the Export Promotion Bureau had said they were $47.47 billion -- a gap of $13.8 billion between the two figures.
