A dish is the price of different types of people in different countries to buy common quality nutritious food. The stall will contain only plain rice, pulses, beans, peas or savory foods. To buy this food, a resident of New York City in the US costs $ 1 cents. And if a citizen of Bangladesh wants to buy a standard dish of this dish in this country, then he will have to spend 6 dollars 56 cents. Considering the income potential, one Bangladeshi needs to eat food at least 5 times higher than the New Yorkers.
The latest report by the World Food Program (WFP), entitled "True Cost of a Plate of Food" or "the real price of a dish dish," has come out. This report compares the food prices of New York City of the industrialized countries of the United States, based on the income potential of the citizens of 52 developing countries. A South Sudanese man who is on the bottom of the list will have to spend about $ 350 in New York's standard food, which is equivalent to a citizen's two-day income. Apart from this, the report has highlighted the economic condition of the developing countries, poverty rates, socio-economic status, and various topics.
Generally speaking, the purchasing power of the citizens of different countries is highlighted in accordance with purchasing power parity or in PPP dollars.
The food prices that have been compared with 52 developing countries in the world, the position of Bangladesh is ninth. Bangladesh has been told in the report, Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Bangladesh's gross domestic product (GDP) growth is more than 6 percent for a few years. As a result, basic education, poverty reduction, maternal and infant mortality declined. Yet there are natural disasters in Bangladesh, flood and cyclone disaster. Still 2.2 million people live below the poverty line. Half of them are hungry. And two-thirds of the children are born in a diminished condition due to malnutrition in Bangladesh. Thousands of Rohingya children from Myanmar suffer from malnutrition.
Asked about this, former caretaker government adviser Hossain Zillur Rahman said in the first light, 'Food quality is a big reason here. In New York, the quality of food that is eaten at low prices will cost a lot of money in this country to buy food. We eat one meal at a comparatively low price. But the quality of the food is not good. Eating as much as eating a lot. So, New York City will have to spend more on eating the same quality of nutritious food. "Hossain Zillur, who is currently in charge of Executive Chairman Power and Participation Research Center (PPRC), said that the production and supply system in developed countries like the United States is much more organized. Economy gets a similar benefit from this system. For this, consumers can eat supplements according to their affordability.
