Dear Sumit & Mustakim, Thank you very much for interesting information about Voter ID. The real heroes behind the screen are our Armed Forces Personnel, specially members of Bangladesh Army. They have worked round the clock for about one year. Still they are working day and night on the project. Let's stand together and salute our beloved Army. Best Regards Nil Olin

Interesting Information about Voter List and National ID. Hi, Dear friendsThe reams of paper used in the voter list and national ID project is enough to cover 850 football fields!
The laminating foils used, if staked one above another would outsmart the height of Mt. Everest by 3.5 times!
The total size of all the DVDs used is about 50 terabyte! Can hold all the Hollywood movies made so far in digital format!
The total size of the database (largest in the world, larger than CIA and FBI) is equal to the overall size of the data available in the Internet (excluding video and graphics). It is five times the size of all the books (converted in digital format) available in the largest library of the world - the Library of Congress!
If one typist sits to type all the data (without any break, sleep, food, toilet) he would need two and half centuries to complete the project by himself.
Even the giant laptop manufacturer DELL fell short in their raw material to supply the laptops for this project. They had to dig in African soil for silicon for the production of microchip!
Samsung company supplied us the printer toner. The man-in-charge of Samsung company came to Bangladesh only to make sure that the demand we placed was accurate. He was confused about the number of zeros we put after 1 in the demand form!
This is the fastest collection of demographic data in the world. The second is Pakistan. They took 5 years. Many European countries are visiting us to learn how to do this job.
The most accurate database in the world - UN Chief of Bangladesh.
The most common birthday in Bangladesh is 01 January - 1.29% according to estimate. The least is - 29 February, naturally - .009%!
If all the voters in Bangladesh (8,06,00,000) unite, they can choose any party/president/ prime ministers in the world through free and fair election(Except for India and China)! |
