Bangladeshi fishermen push their boat at the shore of the Bay of Bengal in Teknaf, the southern most tip of Bangladesh bordering Myanmar.
A large number of Bangladeshi people have depended for their livelihood on fishing and related occupations. Fishermen in rural Bangladesh usually live a community life in neighborhoods or villages around the water bodies as they co-operate closely with one another not only in fishing or in the cooperative utilization of fishing grounds but also in economic activities such as marketing and purchasing and in social life and family affairs.
