Bangladesh, Me and DiptoBangla Fisheries

Fishing is a part of my, my coountry's culture. Most peoples cusine in Bangladesh include fish. 200gm is the daily requirement of animal protein. Only 24gm is fulfilled by the people here daily. Mostly by fish too. This is a country with hundreds of rivers and ponds and is notable for being a fish-loving nation, acquiring the name "মাছে ভাতে বাঙলী" which means, "Bengali by fish and rice".
Ilish is the national fish of the country where it contributes 13% of country's total fish production. Fish are caught both from natural resources and by farming in self-made ponds.

Description:

Time: 22 January, 2017
Location: Jessore, Bangladesh

This is DiptobBangla fisheries. DiptoBangla means "Enlightened Bangla/Bengal". This is my father's last established and running business. Earlier I once told that we used to live in Greece, But the economic crisis forced us to come back to Bangladesh. Since, my father was well off at that time, he established an fisheries at Jessore. It was with his best friend of 22 years. However to cure his suffering son, he stabbed my father in the back (not literally) and took and sold half of the property. This much of the property still remains and is actually now very much flourished.
