    Dhaka, Bangladesh ➖ After checking out the bustling Bashundhara City mall in Dhaka, I was walking back to my hotel, and something unexpected happened. I had gotten food from a local stand and chatted with a "friendly" guy who was adamant to show me the fish markets. I declined as I knew his offer seemed a bit fishy but he decided to follow me for the next 20 minutes as I walked home. Despite my attempts to lose him, he continued to follow me for several blocks and you'll see what happens at the end.

      What?? why are you apologising on 'behalf of your people'? Are you accountable for the actions of 169 million people? You appear to still be suffering from the effects of colonialism almost 100 years ago, white westerners are no better or worse than anyone else including Bangladeshis. Be proud of who you are without stressing about perceptions from non-Bangladeshis. I'm a Bangladeshi, born and bred in London - when a white person wrongs me I don't expect all the decent white people of London to apologise!! People are people, white, black, brown, yellow - we're all the same, there's no need to try and impress those that we perceive to be different from us for some reason or another. It's actually quite sad. Luke is intelligent enough to know that people are people - you get good and bad associated to every race, religion etc in this world so why on earth you're apologising is beyond me and extremely bizarre.

    Bro you such a loving kind person bro, stay safe out there, these types of scammers do get people kill, so when ever you in a foreign country do not show off money, because they'll want to take advantage of your kindness 😕 which isn't very nice.

    Sorry this happened to you. If I was in Dhaka (I'm Bengali American) and an annoying scammer approached me, I would have literally smacked him. My gentle mom even hates these people and she even grew up in BD. These guys are the worst. Truly poor people don't haggle you like that, they just beg while you pass by them.

      What?? why are you apologising on 'behalf of your people'? Are you accountable for the actions of 169 million people? You appear to still be suffering from the effects of colonialism almost 100 years ago, white westerners are no better or worse than anyone else including Bangladeshis. Be proud of who you are without stressing about perceptions from non-Bangladeshis. I'm a Bangladeshi, born and bred in London - when a white person wrongs me I don't expect all the decent white people of London to apologise!! People are people, white, black, brown, yellow - we're all the same, there's no need to try and impress those that we perceive to be different from us for some reason or another. It's actually quite sad. Luke is intelligent enough to know that people are people - you get good and bad associated to every race, religion etc in this world so why on earth you're apologising is beyond me and extremely bizarre.

I watch you and all other vlogger's and I am so glad that you guys only offer food if someone asked for money. if some one ask me for me money I asked if you hungry let me buy you food because those people are lazy and do not want to work. I also noticed everyone who visit Bangladesh mostly visits the city and resort areas but if I may suggest if you could visit any village of Bangladesh you will see the real beauty of Bangladesh or take a trip to Sundarbans . I am sure Nadir can arrange that for you. again thanks a lot for visiting Bangladesh and have a nice and safe stay.
