I think I am banned from Bahrain F1
I usually don’t bother responding to racist jerks who send me insulting comments while assuming that I am “Indian.” I am a Muslim first, but I am also a Bangladeshi, and I won’t deny my heritage if asked. The forward-thinking nation of Bahrain has banned issuing work visas to all 90,000 Bangladeshis in the country, because one of them murdered a Bahraini a few weeks ago, and another killed a woman last year. Since we are such serial killers, this probably means I will not be able to go to the Bahrain F1, or any manufacturer events that might be held there, even if I wanted to.
I am probably the only one from my country in an industry dominated by Brits, Arabs and Indians, and I now have the most popular English automotive website in the Middle East, by the simple virtue of getting straight to the point. I like what I have done, even if my acquaintances think I am weird for playing with the internet and not working in engineering, like my degree says I should. I just like to tell them I already own three interesting cars when they struggle to own just one, and I still have time to build a site like this without being paid for it. Anyway, I guess people like me, and all the engineers, doctors and mechanics from my country, are more likely to commit a crime than any other nationality, since we are all bunched up with those two illiterate murderers.
I admit, I am so evil I did 10 kph above the speed limit today morning. But no more Bahrain F1 coverage from now on (not that we had much to begin with). I will support the Abu Dhabi F1 Grand Prix all the way!

Naaaah…don’t worry…during F1 they’ll let anyone in besides the fact of issuing visit visa’s.
I don’t knw why are you worried…next year you can visit the GP at AbuDhabi….then they’ll be begging u, Mash to come to Bahrain.
I do not support the fact of banning a country for the deeds of a couple of guys.

and to add – keep up the good work and set an example to your fellow country men in a world dominated by others. We love this site out here in Bahrain and Qatar 🙂

The ban is only for labourers’ work visas and not visit visas. So you are most welcome to visit Bahrain anytime you want.

The ministers are actually rather unclear about what they want to do right now, from what I read. Either way, I’ll probably get harrassed to hell by authorities over there. I get looked down upon enough over here as it is.

” A possible ban on issuing or renewing work permits for Bangladeshis in Bahrain will not cover “the skilled and well-educatedâ€, sources told Gulf News on Sunday.
“The ban will be limited to those who are unskilled or do not hold higher education degrees,†the sources said a week after Bahrain’s interior minister said a ban would be imposed on the recruitment of Bangladeshis. “
Mashfique Hussain Chowdhury
Yep, I read that. Won’t stop the attitude I’ll get from the authorities though.

Hey Mash – a wonderful job you have done over the past years to create this interesting website which I believe is credible & reliable, based on the information produced along with the comments/reviews & opinions… infact I have purchased my car & suggested to others after reading through the site…
Good job & it takes heart making this website!
