Bangladesh - Soon the Buddhist population in Bangladesh will have a new lying Buddha statue, the largest in the country. It is to be 100 feet long, 30 feet high and situated on a hillock in the Ramu Township in Co'xs Bazar near the border with Burma.
Already 75% complete, it expected to be finished within the next 2-3 months.
"Bangladesh is a Muslim-dominated country but...I built the statue for the Buddhist community," said Buddhist monk, the Venerable Karunasree Bhikku.
