Abstract

Industrial development is very important for a developing country like Bangladesh. Being

in the heart of the country, Dhaka is facing tremendous industrial pressure. But the way it

is happening, ultimately becoming a threat to the environment and the lives of millions of

people residing in Dhaka. So, there is a need to study how and why the industrial

development is occurring in this way. This research focused on spatial distribution trend

of industries within Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) area, particularly the

large scale manufacturing industries. This research covered two broad objectives. The

first objective was to analyze the development trend of large scale manufacturing

industries and the spatial distribution of these industries within DMDP area through

industrial census data and Geographic Information System (GIS) data. The trend analysis

carried out dividing the whole study period (1903 to 2007) into four periods; the British

Period, the Pakistan Period, the Pre DMDP Bangladesh period and the Post DMDP

period. The study area includes both the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) area and the

Areas outside DMP. The GIS map was prepared using data from recently completed

physical feature survey of Detailed Area Plan Project of RAJUK (The Capital City

Development Authority).

The Second objective was to analyze the compatibility of present industrial development

with DMDP Structure Plan and to find out the factors influencing industrial location

decision. According to DMDP Structure Plan, new industries should be established only

in four Special Incentive Zones such as Savar, Tongi and Gazipur Municipality and the

Dhamsona area and one Special Rehabilitation Incentive Zone in Narayanganj. There

should not be any industries within the area surrounded by the Turag, Balu, Tongi Khal

and the Buriganga River which is the present jurisdiction of DMP and the areas

designated as Flood Flow Zones and Agriculture Zones in the Structure Plan. For

compatibility analysis, the GIS data of industrial locations was overlaid on the delineated

GIS Data of DMDP Structure Plan. To find out the factors influencing industrial location

decision, a standard questionnaire was designed to interview the industry owners to

identify the factors that influence industrial location decision. It has been identified

whether they have violated the DMDP Structure Plan. Finally a comparison was done

iii

between DMDP proposed location and present location of industries. A list of factors was

found that influenced the present location decision.

This research identified that DMP area is accommodating less than half of total (44.95%)

of the industries of DMDP area. The process of industrialization in this area became

faster in the late eighties. Though the area outside DMP is accommodating more than half

(55.05%) of the industries of DMDP area but the trend of establishment of industries

outside DMP has been declining after the year 1990.

Tough DMDP Structure Plan doesn’t allow any new industrial development within the

DMP area; but this area is showing increasing trend of industrial establishment in this

period (1998 and onward). Area outside DMP is showing declining trend during the post

DMDP period. Savar and Keraniganj thana have showed significant industrial

development. Around 10.33% of industrial structures were established in the Agricultural

Zone and some 6.51% are found in the Flood Flow Zones. The questionnaire survey

revealed that the prominent factor for establishing new industries is land value; second

crucial factor is availability of skilled labour. The study also tried to compare the

weightage of different factors assigned by the industrial owners in case of DMDP

specified locations and the present location of the industries. This research strongly

recommends that industrial development should happen in a clustered manner and these

clusters must be categorized according to hazard classification of DoE (i.e. red, orange

and green category), there is a need for transport infrastructure and labor intensiveness. It

also recommends that there should be a one window cell with direct participation of all

the line agencies and the development control authority to review the permit for new

industrial development so that there is no scope of blaming each other for haphazard and

unplanned industrial development.

CHAPTER-1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Bangladesh is predominantly an agriculture based country. Presently the major share of

GDP comes from the non agricultural sectors. Among all non-agricultural sectors,

industry is the most prominent. The industrial sector is likely to grow over the next

decade raising its contribution to the country’s GDP to 30 to 35 percent. Share of

employment in this sector is expected to increase to 35 percent of national employment

over this period (K.A. Saleque, 2008).

Being the capital of Bangladesh, Dhaka witnessed a steady industrial development over

the last few decades. Being the capital of Bangladesh Dhaka posses a glorious history of

almost 400 years. The city had its first master plan in 1959. Master plan of 1959 had

rightly addressed the crucial issues and requirements for better living of the people as

well as of economic development of the area. Proposed industrial zones in Tongi,

Tejgaon, Postagola and Narayanganj were separated from potential areas of residential

development (Minoprio, 1959).

After the independence in1971, all activities were concentrated in Dhaka. There has been

a drive by Bangladesh Small and Cottage Industries Corporation (BSCIC) to decentralize

the industrial development trend to least developed areas of the country. But that drive

was proved to be a failure as quoted by Mondal, (1985) “The fiscal incentives provided

by the government for the dispersal of industries over the less developed area seem to be

both inadequate and ineffective due to lack of supporting facilities. It appears that the

gain due to fiscal and other concessions is overly out weighted by the loss due to the

absence of infrastructural facilities except where raw materials have become crucial

factor” (Hossain, 1992). The other cities of the country Chittagong, Khulna, and Rajshahi

were not given proper attention. As a result, gas supply network has developed mainly in

Dhaka and Chittagong.

Dhaka city is closely accessible by both railway and water communication. Such facilities

enhance the rapid and easy supply of raw materials and other equipments to the industrial

sites. Industries located on the bank of Buriganga utilized the waterway to get supply of

raw materials and to deliver the finished goods. Rail route also help in the movement of

finished goods. At present, transportation of the industrial products is also carried through

2 | P a g e

the developed road network linking Dhaka with other parts of the country (Hossain, 1992)

considering infrastructure facilities; Dhaka has become more and more attractive to the

industrialist.

A change in the location preference is evident with the emergence of garment industries

in Dhaka. Some of the residential areas of Dhaka have turned into mixed industrial and

residential areas. Hundreds of Ready Made Garments and other small industries started to

grow in Malibagh, Moghbazar, Mohammedpur and Mohakahlai even in planned

residential areas like Banani and Mirpur areas over the last three decades (K.A. Saleque,

2008).

In the meantime Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) was undertaken by

government (1995). Jurisdiction of DMDP area covers almost 590 sq miles and policies

were stated for different land uses. DMDP structure plan policies for manufacturing

industries derived largely from the locational tendencies which have prevailed over the

last thirty years (1965-1995) in Metro Dhaka. The trend of industrial development has

reflected market force and the choice of individual private sector. One of the distinct

locational tendencies of the past twenty years, from 1975 to 1995, has been a gradual

northerly shift of industrial activities, particularly to peripheral areas away from city

center, most notably into Savar upazila in the north-west. Whereas, in the south, the

industries of Narayanganj faced severe decline of number of industries particularly the

jute industries. With upgrading of the Dhaka-Chittagong National Highway and gradual

decline of port facilities, Narayanganj lost its importance as an industrial area (Mott

MacDonald Ltd. 1997).

The DMDP consultants have forecasted the northerly shift of industries and proposed four

Special Incentive Zones. The Special Incentive Zones are Savar Municipality area,

Dhamsona and Kashimpur Area, Gazipur Municipality and Tongi Municipality as

indicated by Structure Plan (Figure-4.1, page-52). Apart from these, another special area

was indicated in Tetuljhora and Hazratpur union parishad of Savar and Keraniganj

Upazila for the shifting of Tanneries from Hazaribagh. Other than this, DMDP

discouraged the development of new industrial estates considering its past experience

with other Industrial Estates. As a result, many industries have developed in an unplanned

manner, haphazardly spreading within the city area and sub-urban areas like Hemayetpur,

Tetuljhora, Savar Municipality, Nabinagar, Joydebpur Chourasta, Gazipur Municipality

and Tongi Municipality following better and faster transportation linkages and

availability of cheap labor (BETS et al, 2006).

3 | P a g e

The major work on industrial location has been carried out by economists attempting to

integrate location into main body of economic theory. However industrial location is

concerned with spatial relationships. The resulting contributions have aimed at providing

an all-embracing system of pure rules of location, attempting to derive the optimum

location for industries. The analysis is structured around three approaches to industrial

location theory:

a) The least cost approach, which attempts to explain location in terms of the

minimization of factor cost;

b) Market area analysis, where there is more emphasis on the demand, or

market factors;

c) The profit maximization approach-the logical outcome of the other two.

These three umbrella approach provide a useful framework for the analysis of the

theoretical approach to industrial location (Glasson, 1982)

There are some pull factors like transport network, availability of cheap and suitable land

and labor, also influence the location of industries.

A push factor has to be involved as well as a set of pull factors related to the new

location. These push factors may involve cost elements (wages, access costs, the value of

land and property in alternative use and property tax) or direct constraints (Land use

planning controls, pollution controls etc) (Townroe, 1991). So these factors will have to

be considered while analyzing the factors.

Industrial location is very important for transportation, environment, and economic

aspect; so proper attention should be given to it. Very few research works was found

focusing on the location of industrial development. Among these, two dissertations were

conducted for specialized industries of Bangladesh in 1992 and 1993 (Huda, 1993). So

this study has an aim to have comprehensive idea about industrial development trend

within Dhaka Metropolitan Area. According to Census on Manufacturing Industries

(CMI) classification there are three categories of industries categorized on the basis of

labor intensiveness. The first category industries are the Handloom Establishment with

10+ persons, the second category Medium Scale Manufacturing Establishments with 10

to 49 persons and the third category is Large Scale Manufacturing Establishments

(without handloom) with 50+ persons (Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) 2007).

The last category is the most labor intensive one and these are the Large Scale

Manufacturing Industries. This industries create significant impact on employment

generation, production of goods, waste generation and transportation system i.e.

4 | P a g e

infrastructure. This can be said that industries in the last category create more spatial

impact than the previous ones. So this study creates the opportunity for the author to

examine the spatial distribution pattern and development trend of industries, analyze the

factors that influence the past and present trend and thereby recommend how to direct this

haphazard industrial development into a sustainable development.

1.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

The aim of this study is to study the spatial distribution pattern of industries of Dhaka

Metropolitan Area as well as to analyze the factors influencing the location choice for

these establishments. It will also investigate compatibility of the present trend of

industries with Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP). The objectives of study

are

I. To study the spatial distribution pattern and development trend of industries

within DMDP area.

II. To analyze compatibility with DMDP structure plan and urban area plan and

the factors influencing industrial location choice.

This study will reveal the location tendency of industries considering the spatial

distribution and development trend of industries within DMDP area. It will also indicate

the tentative future location of Industries considering the Strategic Transport Plan (STP)

proposal and Detailed Area Plan (DAP) infrastructure proposals.

1.3 METHODOLOGY

1.3.1 Selection of the Study Area

The main focus of industrial development in Bangladesh is Dhaka and it is happening in a

very haphazard and unplanned manner (South, 2009). So this study is focusing on Dhaka

and the Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) area will be considered as the

study area. This area is extended up to Keraniganj, Narayanganj Sadar, Bandar and

Sonargaon in the south, Rupganj and Kaliganj in the east, Gazipur Sadar in the north and

Savar thana in the west.

1.3.2 Literature Review

Books, journals, research papers, seminar papers were collected and reviewed to have a

preliminary knowledge about the factors and locational theories related with industrial

development. Reports and writings on various industrial policies were also collected and

5 | P a g e

studied. Locational works so far completed on industries including Textile Dyeing and

Printing Industries, Drugs and Pharmaceuticals’ industries and light engineering

industries were also collected and studied.

1.3.3 Data Collection from Primary Sources

After making the total number of industries available from secondary sources, a checklist

was prepared to find out the number of industries which were established after 1997. It

was found that around 841 industries were established after the year 1997. Among these

industries, 60 were picked up with 95% confidence level and 12% confidence interval.

These industries were chosen randomly from those geographical locations, where

structure plan prohibits industrial development specially areas for Agriculture and in

some cases areas of sub-flood flow zone and main flood flow zone. Special consideration

was given to interview the red category industries.

1.3.4 Data Collection from Secondary Sources

Data on the location of industries, type of industries, and their year of establishment was

collected from Rajdhani Unnayan Kartipakkha (RAJUK’s) Survey data used for the

preparation of Detailed Area Plan (DAP). This Data was used to identify the

geographical location of the industries. Apart from this, this study is focused on the Large

Scale Manufacturing Establishments (Establishment with TPE [Total Person Employed]

50-99 & 100+). The Report of Establishment of 2005 was used to collect the total number

of industries engaging more than 50 persons with in DMDP area.

1.3.5 Data Analysis

Data collected from the questionnaire survey was entered into Statistical Package for

Social Survey (SPSS) for further analysis. This analysis was further related with the GIS

data to prepare map of surveyed industrial clusters. Apart from these, the geospatial

industrial data was used to identify the distribution pattern of those industries. This was

done using “Hawths Analysis Tools” in the ArcGIS 9.2 platform.

1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The study analyzes distribution of Industries and their development trend within Dhaka

Metropolitan Development Plan Area. This study includes the identification of

6 | P a g e

incompatible land-uses with the DMDP in terms of industrial development and also the

identification of the factors influencing location and growth of industries.

1.5 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

The study is based on secondary and primary sources data. It was assumed that the survey

data would contain the specific information like type of industries and their names along

with their geographical location. But after going through in details of the survey data

required information were found missing as the Terms of Reference for that project did

not make it mandatory to collect all these information. Though, it has been tried to fill the

gap using data from the Report of Establishment Size TPE 50-99 & 100+ of 2005.

Another limitation of the study is the shortage of data regarding year of inception of

industries in the Report of Establishment Size TPE 50-99 & 100+ of 2005. Around

11.92% industries were found missing in the year of inception field which ultimately

effect the trend analysis a bit.

1.6 ORGANIZATION OF THE THESIS

In writing the research on the spatial development trend of industries within Dhaka

Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) area a total of 5 chapters required to include

and present all the research result and writings.

Chapter-one discuss background of the study, objectives, methodology and possible

outcome of the study.

Chapter-two describes the industrial location theories, various location factors prominent

in industrial sector and various location studies.

CHAPTER 2

INDUSTRIAL LOCATION THEORIES AND MAJOR FACTORS

INFLUENCING INDUSTRIAL GROWTH

2.1 INTRODUCTION

Theoretical base is very important for any research work. To conducting a research on

spatial development trend of industries within DMDP area, it need to follow certain steps

like reviewing different industrial location theories, location studies conducted in the

context of Bangladesh and Dhaka and the review policies related to industries location

decision. Moreover it is very important to study the factors which influence the location

choice decision by entrepreneurs.

2.2 INDUSTRIAL LOCATION THEORIES

Industrial location study is an important branch of economic geography. To enrich the

subject researchers are being done for long by planners, economists, geographers and

social scientists. Three types of theories on location of industry have been categorized so

far. These are as follows:

1. Classical theories

2. Neo Classical theories

3. Behavioural theories

Ricardo, Von Thunen and J.S. Hill are the fore-runners in this line of researches. These

research works have been categorized as classical theories. Others who are prominent

among the classical theoreticians are Weber 1909, Christaller (1933), Hoover (1946) and

Losch (1954). All of them added in the development of location theories by modifying

the previous research works.

After the era of Neo-classical theoreticians those who have contributed in the

development of industrial location theories are Tornquest (1962), Wood and Taylor

(1969). They have been categorized as Neo classical theoreticians.

The third category of industrial location theories prominently called as Behavioural

Location theories. Those who worked in the development of these theories are Pred

(1967), Smith (1977), Dicken (1971) and Keeble (1976). They emphasized and related

industrial location with human motivation and actions.

Von Thunen is the pioneer who tried first to establish theoretically a base for location of

economic activity. Von Thunen developed his theory from his long experience of

8 | P a g e

agricultural farm management at Mecklenburg near the city of Rostock. Von Thunen who

was basically an agriculturist put a theory that relates concentric zones of different uses

forward of land to form about an urban centre.

Alfred Weber (1990) was the first researcher who presented a comprehensive work on

industrial location and formulated a theory of industrial location. Although, some of his

ideas were formulated 20 years earlier by another German Launhardt by name (Pinto

1977). Launhardt applied Geometric principles basically developed by Halford

Mackinder to the study of location of certain industries. Weber worked for the location of

firm, the key unit of modern industrial unit. Weber's basic principle was that a

businessman would choose a location where his cost would be least. Three factors were

considered as determinants for industrial location. These are (i) transport cost (ii) labour

cost and (iii) agglomerative or degglomerative factors. Weber's model has been criticised

for his assumption such as constant transport and production cost, perfect competition

with all firms having access to unlimited demand and for its disregards of institutional

factors. Hoover (1948) tried to eliminate the weakness of Weber’s model dividing cost

into transport and production. He also emphasized on institutional factors and confined to

least cost approach. Losch realized that optimum location is the place of maximum profit

(Glasson 1974) and considered (a) no spatial variation in the distribution of factor inputs

(b) uniform population densities and constant tastes and (c) no locational interdependency

of firms. Briton Harries (1960) showed that market demand varies between different

locations in USA using a simple index of gravitational potential. Recent theoretician like

Isard and Greenhut in particular remoulded the Loschian theories into a profit maximising

approach stating that location point will be there where profit is maximized. John Glasson

(1974) stated that mobile firms seeking to identify the major location factors are as

follows:

a) Labour-quality and quantity

b) Transport and Communication

c) Sites and Premises

d) Government aid

e) Environment factors in the wider sense.

John Glasson did not consider other important factors of industrial location decisions like

(i) Services (ii) Utilities Taxes (iv) Chance (v) Management (vi) Training and (Hi)

consultancy and (vii) Political instability.

9 | P a g e

Smith Nullified the classical theory by saying it as desk bound (Smith 1971) and

emphasized on the real life situation and approached to another important direction of the

industrial location research.

2.3 INDUSTRIAL LOCATION STUDIES IN THE CONTEXT BANGLADESH

A few number of research works has so far been conducted on industrial location. Among

the researchers in Bangladesh those who have added a little in this line of inquiry are Aziz

(1980) Chowdhury and Iqbal (1981), Mondal (1985), Khan and Chowdhury (1987),

Hossain and Qasim (1993).

Location of brick fields in Dhaka city was presented by Aziz (1980). In his research he

identified some of the location factors influencing brick fields. On completion of the

survey and subsequent analysis he obtained some result indicating related factors of

influence and their weightage. This report reveals road access as the most important

factor identified by maximum number of person and proximity to market has been

identified by none as the most important factor. In this regard, it has been pointed that

bricks are sold from the Brick fields with some exception of markets like that of Pagla

brick market and brick market at Demra Ghat. This is the reason why proximity to market

were identified as important factor by none. Transport cost of raw material for brick field

is less as clay is an easy available material within a short distance. But transport cost of

fuel and delivery of bricks require transport to reach at the sites. This is the reason why

nearness to road and waterway occupies a good position as principal factor.

Chowdhury's (1981) research objectives were to identify the factors responsible for

location of the existing textile industries and the efficiency of these locations in the

context of development of the country.

The report shows that Dhaka has got the maximum number of textile spinning and

weaving mill. As Dhaka is the capital of Bangladesh, therefore it has some extra facilities

like infrastructure, nearness to wholesale market, more or less regular supply of

electricity, access to waterway and administrative facilities, access to highway, railway

and waterway etc. Other areas didn’t have such facilities and that was the reason for

backwardness with respect to existing number of textile industries (Iqbql 1981).

Another significant approach by behavioural scientists in the study of industrial location

analysis is deductive and inductive model to arrive at a general theory of industrial

decision making. These attempts have added a little to the overall knowledge of industrial

location phenomenon (Khan 1987).

10 | P a g e

Main points to be noted are the personal contacts and information linkages in deciding the

location of an industry. Continuous researches are being done by the researchers for

industrial location decisions. Locations of large manufacturing industries are found to be

a major factor for establishment of ancillary industries over the surrounding areas due to

development of the agglomeration economy mentioned earlier. This theory has been

formulated by Par roux.

Research work by BIDS (May, 1987) on industrial estate program of BSCIC presented an

assessment of the work of the industrial estates for generating industrial growth. BSCIC

industrial estates are restricted locations for development of the SCI sectors. Industrial

estate program by BSCIC has been taken from the national and international records as to

its beneficial effects of location for SCI, which are planed developed and are with

continuous administrative support. Development includes provision of infrastructure

facilities with continuous administrative facilities for providing services, technical

cooperation and allocation of plots at subsidized rate for the establishment and

enhancement of small and cottage industries. Research paper published by UNDP and

UDD reported the ineffective and inadequate incentive policy provided by the

government of Bangladesh. Government target for uniform development throughout the

country by developing industrially the less developed areas are being hampered due to

lack of inadequate supporting facilities. Transportation problems are acute in many less

developed areas. Although fiscal incentives have been declared and provided by the

existing industrial policies but the net gain of these facilities are being grasped by the

poorly developed or lack of infrastructure facilities and other supporting conditions. Only

the places prominent in availability of raw materials are showing different pictures.

Another research report on the pattern of industrial location and its determinants in

Bangladesh has been submitted by BIDS (October, 1989). Here industrial locations have

been analyzed by two approaches e.g. (i) geographic and (ii) economic.

The paper analyzed the location of industries for old districts on the basis of industrial

employment in each district. Attempt has been made to calculate the degree of

concentration with urban rural breakdown. The research report limited its

conceptualization to Coefficient of divergence and advantage ratio. Coefficient of

localization is a better tool than coefficient of divergence as it indicates the locational

pattern of industries more directly and precisely. The report indicated the highest

concentration recorded by Dhaka districts followed by Chittagong (12981) and Khulna

(1974) districts. Report revealed that concentration of industry helps reap the benefits of

11 | P a g e

agglomeration but also give rise to various costs. It reduces private costs but heightens

social costs.

Research work on location of Drugs and Pharmaceutical industries in Bangladesh has

been presented by Shamima Huda in her Unpublished M.U.R.P thesis. In her study intra

and inter regional analysis have been done for the regions of Dhaka, Barisal and Pabna on

aspects like periodical growth in different areas of Drug industries, land, labour cost,

source of raw materials, profitability and transport of communication, public services etc.

The study evaluated the development of industrial policies and weakness of the policies

on aspects of location of industries. The study reviews the location of drugs and

pharmaceutical industries under the frame work of the industrial policies in different

times. The study also recommends a desirable policy package for attracting investors to

establish drug units in less or least developed areas.

Another unpublished MURP, BUET thesis paper by Hossain (1993) has been worked out

in determining the factors influencing location of textile dying and printing industries in

Bangladesh. Division wise distribution of textile dying and printing industries and

concentration ratio of the same in three development areas were determined. Ranking of

the factors influencing the same industry for the three areas for example developed, less

developed and least developed areas had been done. Relevance of location theories to the

textile dying and printing industries in Bangladesh had also been discussed. Suggestion

recommendation and guide lines had also been presented for setting up of new textile

dying and printing industries in future.

2.4 INDUSTRIAL LOCATION STUDIES IN THE CONTEXT OF DHAKA

METROPOLITAN DEVELOPMENT PLAN (DMDP) AREA

Only two research works have so far been conducted on industrial location of Dhaka

Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) Area. Research conducted by Khan (1996) on

factors influencing location and growth of light engineering industries in Dhaka and

another one is the DMDP (1995) where there was separate working paper on Economic

Base Studies (DMDP working Paper-14).

The study of Khan (1996) determined the factors influencing location of light engineering

industries in Dhaka city. It was tried to identify the light engineering industrial clusters in

and around Dhaka and then focused mainly on Dholaikhal and Zinzira. The work was

mainly focused on the findings of the questionnaire survey which was carried out to

identify the factors which influenced the location decision for establishing light

12 | P a g e

engineering industries. The factors were given weighted score based on their priority and

a detailed matrix was prepared to identify the most important factors of location choice

for both the area. Moreover it tried to compare the common and uncommon factors of

these two areas based on their total weighted score.

The DMDP structure plan policies for manufacturing industry derived largely from

location tendencies which had prevailed for the past twenty to thirty years in metro

Dhaka. In general terms, these tendencies had reflected market forces and the choice of

individual private sector interests and companies. One of the most marked locational

tendencies was gradual northern shift of industries during 1975 to 1995. Considering

these tendencies it identified four areas that were covered by Least Development Status

for which changes are proposed and these specific locations were given the Special

Incentive Zone Status (Map-4.1). Being historically an important industrial area

Narayanganj was losing its importance for industrial development in the emergence of

better road transport facilities to the other part of the metro. So Narayanganj was given

the status of Special Rehabilitation Incentive Zone. DMDP has also reviewed the

industrial estates of Tejgaon and Tongi. Regarding these two industrial estate DMDP

consultants have pointed out that these two estates were not yet properly utilized so the

allotment for industrial plots may be redistributed. They recommended not proposing any

new industrial estate within the Structure Plan Period. It was there prescription that

industries should be located in such places which require minimum public sector

investment in land acquisition and provision of infrastructure and other public service

provision (Mott MacDonald Ltd. 1997). Among numerous reason for establishing

industries else where, they identified the labour unrest in these industrial estates. It

encourages the establishment of foot-loose industries in the Special Incentive Zones as

designated in DMDP. But Special recommendations were there about the polluting

industries not to locate anywhere in the zones. DMDP also give impetus importance on

environmental protection and preservation of ground water. It aims at incremental up

gradation of system to reduce environmental pollution. But there is some inconsistency in

the policy. It is suggesting four special incentive zones but discourages development of

industrial estates. It encourages foot-lose industries to be established in the four incentive

zones through relaxing the requirements for manufacturing industries to locate in large,

pre-designed industrial zones. In this case DMDP is encouraging sprawl industries

development.

13 | P a g e

2.5 POLICIES AND NEED FOR RESEARCH ON INDUSTRIAL LOCATION.

Concentration of industries in particular areas in developing countries has generated

enormous pressure on policy makers to control or direct industrial growth. In the past

there has been generally no public control exercised to determine in what part of a

country a new industry should be established. In some cases this has led to economic and

social conditions which have tendered to react unfavorably on the community as a whole.

Now many industrial location policies exist to influence the location patterns of

industries. This is not surprising since, “The true determinants, forces of urbanization and

spatial concentration in developing countries are found in the forces that determine the

location of employment opportunities, the nature and pattern of industrialization, the pace

of agricultural development and the growth of transportation and communication

network” (World Bank, 1979, p.76), within a area, work place locations tend to influence

residential locations and travel patterns. Therefore, policies that influence employment

location will affect the overall spatial development patterns of the area. Particular

attention has been given to location patterns of manufacturing activities on the

assumption that manufacturing is the driving force behind regional development. This

assumption is in line with the theory that the development of certain manufacturing

activities determines the development of other industries in a region and is followed by

population growth and then by the emergence of service sector activities (Lowry 1964).

Industrial location policy is an important devise to reduce the regional disparity in the

level of employment and income. In order to control the industrial development in

particular centers and to induce industries to backward regions or areas, some short of

deliberate industrial location policies are usually adopted, such as zoning regulations,

outright prohibition of certain economic activities in particular areas and various fiscal

incentives to induce industrial and population to depressed areas.

2.6 FACTORS INFLUENCING INDUSTRIAL LOCATION AND GROWTH

There are many factors influencing industrial location and growth. These factors are of

various types and factors prominent in one area differ from that of other places with

varying degrees due to surrounding environment and other situation. Some factors are

physical in nature and some are socio economic in nature. General factors responsible for

growth of the light engineering industries are (1) market for raw and finished product (2)

labour availability and cost (3) capital (4) communication (5) mode of transport (6)

infrastructure development (7) geographic condition (8) environmental factors and others.

14 | P a g e

Analysis of industrial development shows that nature of industrial development has a

close relation with the prominent factors than the less prominent factors for an area.

Again some factors are more or less common to all areas and some are uncommon. A

brief description of the factors influencing industrial location has been given below

2.6.1 Accessibility to Market:

Accessibility to market is very important for industrial establishment. Market may be

local, regional, or international. Some areas lack accessibility to market due to geographic

position and infrastructure facilities or it may be due to other factors of transportation

facilities like non-availability of bus, truck, rickshaw, push cart etc. Transportation cost is

also a factor for accessibility to market from costing point of view. Again besides

availability of transport and communication facilities longer distance may hamper

accessibility due to longer travel time. Besides the above points discussed so far, one may

not get access to markets due to other reason like undisclosed contract among the buyers

or businessman to take goods at a very cheap cost hampering the profit margin.

2.6.2 Accessibility to Raw Materials:

Accessibility to raw material is also a very important precondition for industrial

establishment, although, service industry do not require major raw material for

production. Nearness to source of raw material has a great significance in choosing the

location of an industry. Cost of raw materials, supply of raw material and quality of the

raw material influence the location and growth of an industry. Generally industries are to

be established near the source of raw materials for less seen durable or putrescible goods

e.g. food industry.

2.6.3 Availability of Labour

Labour is one of the major factors influencing location and growth of all types of

industries. Availability of skilled labour, technically trained labour, unskilled labour and

labour cost are considered in locating industries. Some industries like weaving mills are

found to occur abundantly in some specialized areas like Pabna, Tangail and Dhaka due

to availability of labour in large number with cheap wage rate. Planners, economists and

engineers dealing with industrial planning are interested much about this factor

15 | P a g e

2.6.4 Capital

Among the important factors influencing location and growth capital bears a great

significance. Without Capital no one can think of establishing an industry. Bank loan is

not easily available and if it is available then also remains problem of in sufficient loan

and this is the general scenario of the whole country. Amount of capital greatly influences

the location of an industry. Large capital enables more in establishing industry at

expected places than that of small capital. Capital may be of two Types e.g. (i) Fixed

capital and (2) working capital. Fixed capital includes value of land; building, machinery

etc. concentration and dispersal of industries are influenced by cost of raw material and

capital. Working capital includes overheads for 3 month generally.

2.6.5. Transport and Communication

Transport factors are taken as important locational determinants. Industries not well

connected to market suffer a lot both with respect to availability and transportation of raw

materials and finished product resulting in stagnation of production. Location of industry

is chosen generally at a point where cost is less and profit is more. There are three system

of transportation e.g. (i) land transportation (ii) water transportation (iii) air

transportation.

i. Land Transportation:

There are two ways of land transportation. These are (a) railway and (b) highway. Among

this roadway transportation is more important and used more by the industrialist due to

flexibility. Transportation of goods by railway is cumbersome due to various reasons like

official process for booking and releasing goods. It is also a lengthy and time consuming

system. Transport modes which are used in high way are bus, truck, car, scooter, tempo,

rickshaw van etc in carrying goods.

ii. Water Transportation

Water transportation is the cheapest of all the transportation system and have low risk of

accident. Cost of maintenance of waterway and transports are minimum compared to

other modes of Transport and this is the reason why industrialist prefer to set up

industries by the side of water way. Among the water transport are boat, launch, steamer,

cargo etc.

iii. Air Transportation:

Air transportation is the quickest way of all the transportation system if the official

process and time for booking and releasing is not considered. Industrial transportation is

16 | P a g e

not generally accomplished by this process due to high cost of transportation. Besides all

these it has an importance in the context of industrial location decision.

2.6.6 Infrastructure Facilities

Provisions of infrastructure facilities are considered deeply in location decision for

industrial establishment. Without adequate infrastructure facilities one cannot even think

of setting industries. Infrastructure facilities may be categorized under the following

heads:

i. Site development

ii. Communication facilities

iii. Supply of utility facilities

i. Site Development

Development of industrial plots influences highly in location decision of industry. A

developed site is always attracted by industrialists. Land development cost is considered

in location decision.

ii. Electricity

Electricity is a prime requirement for most of the industries. Places with regular supply of

electricity are always attracted by industrialists. High rate of electricity is a problem for

industrialization. Generated electricity is getting importance day by day to large

industries, although its initial costing is high but total cost benefit ratio is lesser.

iii. Supply of Gas:

Supply of gas for many industries is essential and without it production cannot go on if it

is used as raw material. Proximity or accessibility to gas is therefore an important and

essential requirement in location decision of industry. Inadequate and high rate of gas is a

problem. Liquid gas is also used where supply of gas is not available.

iv. Water Supply

Accessibility to water supply is an important factor in establishing industries. Water is a

prime requirement for some industries like tannery, textile dyeing and printing industry

and these industries in most cases use water from river, canal etc. and disposes water to

the same and therefore accessibility of these industries to water flow is essential. Some

time iron content of water hamper industrial production. All these things are duly

considered in location decision.

v. Accessibility to Telephone

17 | P a g e

Accessibility to telephone is essential for quick communication with concerned persons

or places, clients or customer, raw material market, finished products markets for quick

dealings. Therefore telephone line is considered in industrial location decision.

2.6.7. Agglomeration and External Economy

Sometimes large industries situated at distant places motivate other industries alike or

different, to be set up at close proximity thus creating an industrial environment.

Afterwards this industrial environment creates several facilities which influence industrial

location decision.

The facilities are

i. Transfer of economy arising from saving in transport cost

ii. Internal economies of scale large enough to create an industrial town

iii. Localization economies to firms of like character.

iv. The external economies of scale available to many unlike industries which reduce

cost as different industries have developed in one place.

The whole process may be termed as urbanization economy. Advantages include a pool

of labour with particular skill and special educational facilities, allied and ancillary

industries etc. All these benefits together present considerable cost advantages over

alternative locations.

2.6.8 Government Policy

Government policies for industrialization have strong impact upon location decision. Less

and least developed areas are attractive if sufficient incentives are provided by

government. Restriction may also be applied for certain areas for particular industries etc.

2.6.9 Historical Accident or Personal Preference:

There are certain examples of industrial location choice. Basis of these choices may not

be attributable to economic reason. Personal preference may sometimes affect industrial

location decision. Historical accident may also effect location decision. A case of

historical accident is the place of birth of the founder of the first pharmaceutical

enterprises namely M/S Edruc Ltd by some Mr. Abdul Hamid at Pabna.

18 | P a g e

2.6.10. Environmental Factor

Environmental factors like climate and landscape or perhaps the wider concept of the

total environment are growing attraction for some new lighter industries such as

computers, electronics and research establishment, which are less constrained by raw

materials and transport factors. Other major determinants that are included in the leading

environmental factors are school, housing, roads and town centre.

2.7 CONCLUSION

A number of locational theories have so far been developed by theoreticians. These are

1. Classical theories

2. Neo classical theories and

3. Behavioral theories etc.

All these theories identify some general factors responsible for industrial location and

growth. Major factors which are very general for location and growth of industries which

have been discussed in this chapter are access to market, access to raw material, and

availability of labor, capital, communication, infrastructure facilities, agglomeration and

external economy etc. Importance of these factors varies from one place to another but

influences of these factors are unquestionable.

CHAPTER-3

ANALYSIS OF DEVELOPMENT TREND AND SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION

PATTERN OF INDUSTRIES

3.1 INTRODUCTION

This chapter discusses the industrial development trend and spatial distribution pattern of

industrial development with in Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) Area.

The industrial trend analysis started from 1903 to 2005 and it was divided into four

periods i.e. the British period (1903-1947), the Pakistan period (1948-1971), the Pre

DMDP Bangladesh Period (1972-1997) and the Post DMDP period (1998-2005). The

spatial distribution pattern of industries was analyzed with the survey data of Detailed

Area Plan (DAP) project of RAJUK and the data extracted from the Report of

Establishment, 2005 under two broad geographical areas. The total DMDP area was

divided into Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) and area outside DMP.

3.2 DEVELOPMENT TREND OF INDUSTRIES SINCE 1903

Dhaka’s first ever large scale manufacturing industry was established in 1903. Till the

British period only 4 industries were there in this category. But in the year 2005, there are

around 2465 number of large scale manufacturing industries.

Figure 3.1: Trend of industries within DMDP area

Until Bangladesh period Dhaka and its surroundings have experienced very low level of

industrialization but started to grow rapidly after the independence (Figure 3.1).

20 | P a g e

Within the DMP area, the number of industries in a year first time crossed 10 in the year

1972 and with a decrease in the years 1973-74 it again started to rise sharply with another

fall in 1976. It started rising again from 1978-80. In the year 1976 the number of

industries outside DMP area first time crossed the number of industries in DMP and it

continued until 1996 with one exception in 1984 (Figure 3.1). The year 1997 was the

approval year of DMDP and after that there should not be any new industries within DMP

area. But from that year the number of industries within the DMP area started to dominate

over the area outside DMP which was a complete violation of the DMDP structure plan

policy.

.

3.2.1 Trend in British Period

The first industry was established in 1903 at Shyampur, Dhaka in the British period and

till 1947, only four industries of this category were established (Bangladesh Bureau of

Statistics (BBS) 2007). Shyampur, Tejgaon, Lalbagh and Hazaribagh were the four

localities having one large scale manufacturing industry each in the British period.

There were no industries outside the DMP area in the British Period.

3.2.2 Trend in Pakistan Period

The Thana wise industrial development trend is discussed according to two broad and

identical geographic areas i.e. the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) area and outside

DMP area that are within DMDP. The DMP area experienced a little boost in the

industrial sector during the Pakistan period. The highest number of industries established

in a year was only four which took place in the year 1965, 1968 and 1969 (Figure 3.2).

Amid this period (1948 to 1971) there have been no industries in the year of 1949, 1951,

1954 and 1955. Dhaka district had experienced a continuous development trend after the

year 1955 with minimum of one industry each year.

21 | P a g e

Figure 3.2: Trend of industries within DMP area in Pakistan Period

Figure 3.2 is showing irregular development trend during Pakistan period. There were no

industries in Kamrangir Char, Mirpur Cantonment, Sabujbagh, Gulshan, Dhamrai, Dhaka

Cantonment, Khilgaon, Mohammadpur, Kotwali, Kafrul, Uttara, Mirpur, Ramna, Badda,

Savar, Motijheel and Dhanmondi thana during the Pakistan period. Other thanas like

Demra, Pallabi, Tejgaon, Sutrapur, Hazaribgh, Lalbagh and Shyampur experienced the

touch of industrialization. Two Industries were established in Hazaribagh (1953 and

1969), Sutrapur (1968) and Tejgaon (1960).

Industrialization process just started in outside DMP area during this period. The first

industry was established in Gazipur Sadar Thana in 1952 (Figure 3.3). From 1953 to 1959

22 | P a g e

there have been no new industries in the Outside DMP area. Gazipur experienced its

second and Kaliganj its first industry in 1960.

Figure 3.3: Trend of industries Outside DMP area in Pakistan Period

Throughout this period there have been no industries in Savar Thana. In the year 1962,

Bandar had two new industrial establishments where as other thanas like Keraniganj,

Narayanganj Sadar, Rupganj, Sonargaon had one industry each. After a pause of two

years (1963-64), the Outside DMP area showed rapid growth till 1965 and afterwards

steady growth till 1968. The growth started to decline rapidly in the year 1969 till 1971.

Analyzing Figure 3.2 and 3.3 it become clear that the industrial development of DMDP

area started to decline after the year 1969 and the cause was nothing new; it was the

political instability of the country during that period.

23 | P a g e

3.2.3 Trend in Pre DMDP Bangladesh period (1972-1997)

After the war of liberation Dhaka become the capital of the country. Dhaka Metropolitan

Police Area didn’t experience any significant rise in the industrial sector during the period

1972-1979 except a bounce in Hazaribagh in 1975 (Figure 3.4). In the year 1980 it got a

boost followed by another fall in 1981. It experienced slight ups and downs in between

1982 to 1989 but showed steeper growth from the year 1990 to 1997.

Figure 3.4: Development Trend of industries within the DMP Area in Pre DMDP

Bangladesh period (1972-97)

During this period (1990-97) Shyampur, Tejgaon and Pallabi showed significant rise

whereas Mirpur, Mohammadur, Khilgaon and Sabujbagh thana showed noticeable rise in

the number of industries. This rise in the number of industries may be the resultant of

bloom in Readymade Garment (RMG) sector because many new industries started to

grow in these years.

24 | P a g e

The Area outside DMP is showing more industrial development compared to the DMP

area development. It experienced the steady growth of industrialization from the year

1977. It experienced steep curve from 1977 to 1980 and continued its growth till 1990

with two major depressions in 1984 and 1987. After the year 1990 the industrial growth

of Area outside DMP started to decline very slowly.

Gazipur Sadar is showing very slow and steady rise in the number of industries during the

period of 1972 to 1989 with some noticeable bounce in the years of 1980, 1982, 1985 and

1988. The noticeable matter in this trend graph (Figure 3.5) is that Kaliganj thana had its

last industry in the year 1978 and completely lost its glory as an industrial location. After

the year 1989 Gazipur Sadar experience sharp rise till 1992 and it remained steady till

1995. After the year 1995 the trend experienced a sharp fall till 1997.

Figure 3.5: Development Trend of industries within the area outside DMP in Pre DMDP

Bangladesh period (1972-97)

25 | P a g e

Narayanganj Sadar showed very slow start after the liberation and the trend was negative

during the period 1973 to 1975(Figure 3.5). There were no industries in the year 1976 and

it went high up to 18 industries in the year 1980. After the year 1980 the number of

industries started to rise steadily till the year 1991 with some ups and downs. After wards

it experienced drastic fall up to the year 1992 and it had another drastic rise in 1993

followed by same drastic fall in 1994. After 1994 the number of industries started to rise

steadily till 1997. Savar thana had its first ever Large Scale Manufacturing industry in the

year 1976. From 1977 to 1991 there was irregular trend of new industrial establishments.

It showed steady growth from the 1992 and continued till 1997. Keraniganj thana showed

its irregular trend all over this period with steady trend from 1990.

The most noticeable trend was the domination of Narayanganj Sadar over other thanas of

Savar, Sonargaon, Rupganj, Keraniganj, Kaliganj and Bandar though Sorargaon thana

showed drastic jump in the year 1985.

3.2.4 Trend in Post DMDP period (1998-2005)

Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) was accepted and approved with its two

part The Structure Plan (Volume-I) for the whole area and The Urban Area Plan

(Volume-II) for the then urban areas by the Government of Bangladesh (GoB) in the year

1997. There has been a sixty days public hearing on both the volumes of DMDP. After

addressing all feedback from different level of society; the DMDP team finalized all the

reports and maps. So the DMDP was the first ever document which was vetted by the

stakeholders (Public Sector, private sector and individual owners).

The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Area maintained the steady industrialization that

she gained in the pre DMDP period (Figure 3.4). It showed slight downward slope from

1998 to 1999 and again sharp upward slope till the year 2000 (Figure 3.6). The number of

industries drooped again in the year 2001 and 2002 with another sharp rise again in 2003.

It had the most drastic fall in 2004 with another rise in 2005.

This trend shows that Shyampur, Tejgaon, Pallabi, Badda, Mirpur, Uttara, Kafrul and

Khilgaon thana are occupying the highest number of the industries from 1998 to 2005

whereas other thanas like Hazaribagh, Demra, Dhanmondi, Motijheel, Ramna,

Mohammadpur, Dhaka Cantonment and Gulshan are showing diminishing industrial

development trend.

26 | P a g e

Figure 3.6: Trend of DMP area in Post DMDP period (1998-2005)

Kamrangir Char and Sabujbagh thana are showing negligible industrial development

during this period.

The Area outside DMP is showing less industrial development compared to the

development of DMP area. Gazipur Sadar is showing rapid decrease in the number of

industries during the period of 1998 to 1999. It again started to rise during 1999 to 2002

and the number of industries started declining during the period 2002 to 2005 (Figure

3.7).

Narayanganj Sadar showed steady increase in the number of industries during the period

1998 to 1999 followed by slight decline in the year 2000 and 2001(Figure 3.7).

27 | P a g e

Afterwards it continues to decrease in the number of industries and it turned into 0

industries in 2003.

Figure 3.7: Trend of Area outside DMP in Post DMDP period (1998-2005)

In the Pre DMDP period Narayanganj Sadar dominated over the other thanas which is

absent in this period. In the last two years Bandar and Rupganj thana showed some new

establishment whereas Sonargaon Thana had only one new industries in the last year.

Savar thana is occupying the highest number of the industries from 1998 to 2005 whereas

Keraniganj is in the second highest in terms of industries. Savar had a slight fall in 1999

followed by gradual rise in the number of industries till the year 2004. After 2004, the

number of new industries became one third of its 2004 number. Keraniganj had its steady

decline in the number of industries till 2000 followed by steady rise in the number up to

28 | P a g e

six times more of 2000, in the year 2003. After the year 2003 the number of industries

started to decline slowly till 2005.

3.3 ANALYSIS OF SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION PATTERN

Spatial distribution pattern is studied to understand the distribution pattern of a variable

over a geographical area. To analyze the growth of industries in a city it is very important

to understand the nature of its growth. Specialists often examine the spatial pattern of a

particular variable and compare it to the ideal theoretical pattern. It is important to

identify distribution patterns of different spatial variables for understanding how spatial

phenomena behave. Although it is possible to get features or values by mapping them,

calculating a statistic quantifies the pattern. That makes it easier to compare the patterns

for different distributions and also to calculate the probability that a pattern isn't simply

due to chance. Calculating the probability is important to have a high level of confidence

in any decision making. Using statistics to measure patterns has other advantages over

visually analyzing the distribution of features. From this analysis, specialists can identify

why and how much a particular pattern deviates from the theoretical pattern. Problems or

benefits created from this deviation can be identified and recommendations can be

generated to solve the problems.

Spatial objects which subject to analyse usually are represented by point or area

depending on the scale of the map and extent of an object on the surface. Whether point

or area, to describe an existing pattern among the features, their randomness is tested.

From the test three types of pattern can be

identified:

Clustered

Dispersed

Random

Clustered patterns are seen when the points

or the areas under investigation appear to be

concentrated in particular spaces. Other than

clustering, point or areas can be uniformly distributed over the study area. Random

pattern shows no definite pattern in distribution like clustering or dispersion. In real

29 | P a g e

world, geographic objects, point or area, do not usually show any particular pattern rather

shows a combination of patterns. These patterns show tendencies to be purely random

towards clustering or dispersion. But for human establishment, patterns can be identified

as clustered, dispersed or random resulted either form conscious planning or spontaneous

growth of cities. These three patterns can be shown in diagram 2.1.

3.3.1 Point pattern analysis

In maps a lot of elements are depicted by points depending on the scale of the map. Point

pattern analysis is done primarily to determine the form of the pattern of these points.

Through point pattern analysis a researcher uses a quantitative tool to examine the spatial

arrangement of points over a space by a dot map.

There are various tools for analysis point pattern. This are-

Nearest neighbor analysis

Quadrat analysis

Kernel distance analysis

To analyze how the industries are located or distributed Quadrat analysis and Kernel

distance analysis are used mostly where the geographical data of features are available as

point GIS shape files. But Kernel distance analysis has certain limitation; it cannot

handle data of more than six thousands which made it impossible to analyze all the point

data of the study area at one run (There are over twelve thousands point feature within the

study area). So Quadrat analysis is the only tool that can be used to analyze the spatial

development pattern. The method of Quadrat Analysis is described below:

Quadrat analysis

Quadrat analysis is an alternative method for analyzing patterns of points. In nearest

neighborhood process the focus is on the spacing of the pints. But Quadrat analysis

divides the whole study area into smaller areas and examines the frequency in various

parts. The Quadrats or cells can be square cells or circular cells. For determining the

pattern frequency of points in each cell is determined. If each Quadrat contains same

frequency of points then it can be said that points in that study area are perfectly

dispersed. On the other hand if there is large variability in the frequencies then the points

can be arranged in a clustered pattern. Moderate frequency variability shows random

distribution. The following diagram shows the patterns:

30 | P a g e

Figure 3.8: Pattern of points in Quadrat analysis

But instead of this descriptive method an index is used for better representation of pattern.

The index is known as the Variance- mean ratio of cell frequencies denoted by VMR. For

calculating mean the simple formula of mean is used.

Mean cell frequency = n/m where n= number of points

m= number of cells

For calculating variance the following formula is used.

Variance= (∑fiXi2- [(∑fiXi2)/m])/ (m-1) where fi= frequency of cell with i points

Xi= number of points per cell

Now, VMR = Variance/ Mean.

In a Poisson distribution it is assumed that the distribution is random. So in case of a

Poisson distribution the variance- mean ratio is 1 as the mean frequency equals the

variance of the frequencies. So when VMR value is closer to one it can be said that the

points are distributed randomly. Again in case of dispersion the frequencies of the cells

will be similar and variance will be low. In extreme cases of absolute dispersion variance

will be 0. Thus for dispersed distribution VMR value will be 0< VMR <1. On the other

hand for clustered distribution, variance of cell frequencies will be large relative to mean

and will give a VMR value greater than 1.

Along with this descriptive index, a goodness of fit or χ2 test is also applied to determine

whether the observed frequency differs significantly from the expected frequency of cells.

The test statistics is defined as follows:

χ2 = VMR (m-1), where m= number of cells

The null hypothesis for this test is generally considered as no difference between

Perfectlydispersed

Highlyclusterd Random

31 | P a g e

observed and expected frequency or in another word the distribution of points shows a

total randomness. Null hypothesis can be rejected if the point pattern is more clustered

than random giving a VMR value greater than 1 or when the point pattern is more

dispersed than random giving a VMR value less than 1. The corresponding p- value from

VMR - value is calculated through a p-value calculating program found in the web- link

“http://www.graphpad.com/quickcalcs/pvalue1.cfm”. The Chi- square test and the

corresponding p- value determine whether this difference is significant or not. A large

VMR value will produce a larger Chi- square value and a small p- value. This suggests

that the observed frequencies vary largely and the distribution is clustered. On the other

hand a small VMR value will yield a smaller Chi-square value and larger p value

indicating more dispersed distribution. Intermediary values of Chi- square from VMR

values closer to 1 suggests that the distribution is actually random, thus the null

hypothesis cannot be rejected.

From this goodness of fit test any researcher can confidently interpret the result of the

descriptive index VMR along with the support of the Chi- square value (McGrew and

Monroe, 2000).

Another aspect influencing the result of Quadrat analysis is the size of the grids

superimposed on the map. The ideal practice suggests examining with different size. But

in practice an optimum size is widely used. The size of the cells in grid should be 2A/n,

where A is the area of the space under study and n is the number of points. It is twice the

area surrounding any point on the space. Thus there is greater chance of having grids with

at least one point than grids with no points at all. Therefore if a distribution appears

random using this size it will be random using any other cell size. Thus it enhances the

strength of the goodness of fit test.

Quadrat analysis in ArcGIS Platform

Quadrat analysis is another very well-known process for identifying patterns in points.

For the purpose of superimposing grids on maps and then calculating the points within

polygons, ArcGIS Desktop 9.3 software has been used. The process is described below:

Quadrat analysis process using ArcGIS Desktop 9.3

The process is done in following steps:

3. Calculate and position the centroid points of industries_all layers using Hawth’s Tools

(an extension software of ArcGIS Desktop 9.3)

33 | P a g e

‘Hawth’s Tools’ is an extension of ArcGIS that performs basic statistical and spatial

analysis operations. After installing the extension, it should be enabled first by following

the under-mentioned procedure:

Tools Extensions Hawth’s Analysis Tools (check it).

Figure 3.10: Enabling extension (Hawth’s Analysis Tools).

After enabling the extension Hawths Tools is ready for performing further operations.

Calculation and positioning of the centroid point are done by following:

Hawth’s Tools Vector Editing Tools Generate Polygon Centroid

Points.

This command will show ‘Generate Polygon Centroid Points’. In this window the ‘Input’

parameter will take any shape file which contains polygon/polygons and the ‘Output’

parameter need to be filled up with output file name and location. From between two

alternatives, ‘Label Point’ is selected rather than ‘Centroids’ because it generates centroid

points inside the polygons.

From the test statistics it is found that a large VMR value produces comparatively large

Chi Square value and smaller p-value that suggests greater variability of the cell

frequencies and clustered arrangements of points. Here calculated p-value is 0.0001

which is almost close to 0 and makes the distribution pattern clustered.

3.4 SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF INDUSTRIES

According to the Bangladesh Census of Manufacturing Industries 2001-2002, three are

three stratums of industries. This study is focused on the Large Scale Manufacturing

Establishments (Establishment with 50+ persons). According to the Census Report 2007,

there were 7,944 large scale manufacturing industries in the year 2001-2002 (Bangladesh

Bureau of Statistics (BBS) 2007). In the Report of Establishment TPE 50-99 & 100+

updated up to 2005, there are 2,465 industries within Dhaka Metropolitan Development

Plan (DMDP) Area which were geographically categorized in terms of thana. According

to these data more than 30% of large scale manufacturing industries of the country are

located within DMDP Area. It reflects that Industrial agglomeration is identical within

DMDP area. In most of the cases same type of industries are located in close vicinity. For

example, tannery industries are all located in Hazaribagh area. Within DMP Area, the

Ready Made Garments industries are concentrated in Mirpur, Badda and other areas

though their concentration was significant in and around Maghbazar and Malibagh areas

in the early nineties. Some agglomeration of dying industries is seen in Savar, Tetuljhora

and Kashimpur area polluting the water of nearby khals like the Beximco Khal,

Karnapara Khal etc. Outside DMP area the major agglomeration of RMG is in the

western and northern part of the DMDP area. In the western part areas like Tetuljhora,

Savar, Biralia, Ashulia, yearpur of Savar thana and Kashimpur, Basan and Kayaltia of

Gazipur Sadar thana are the major concentration of RMG. Some composite industries are

there in these areas. There are a number of agro based, food manufacturing, metal

products, Hosiery, chemical, plastic, pharmaceuticals and textile industries are there in

Shiddhirganj, Fatullah, Enayetnagar , Demra, Kutubpur, Gognagar of Shiddhirganj,

Fatullah, Demra and Narayanganj Sadar Thana. The eastern part Tarabo union of

Rupganj Thana shows significant concentration of RMG industries.

3.4.1 Distribution of Industries within DMP Area.

Being the capital and located in the center of the country, Dhaka has always been the

most attractive location for industrial development. In addition to that Dhaka

Metropolitan Police attracted all sort of industries through providing transportation

facilities, skilled and cheap labor, agency cooperation, availability of unskilled and very

cheap labor, Gas, Electricity, Water Supply and a huge concentration of consumers.

38 | P a g e

Figure 3.14: Thana wise distribution of industries within DMP area.

Dhaka Metropolitan Police Area comprised of 21 thanas (Banglapedia, 2009). Among all

thanas of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) some thanas are historically important

industrial areas specially the areas like Hazaribagh, Kotwali, Shyampur, Sutrapur.

But their share seems to be very insignificant when it shows the distribution since 1903 to

2005 for these particular labor intensive large scale manufacturing industries (Figure

3.14). It is showing more and more concentration of industries in the newer part of the

city (Table-3.2). The main cause of this distribution is the emergence of Ready-made

garments (RMG) since the early eighties. The RMG sector requires special infrastructure

provision to carry its goods in a faster manner. So, the industrial owners have followed

the new and widened transport infrastructures to establish their industries to avail

mobility in transporting their raw and finished materials. The old part of Dhaka seriously

lacked behind providing mobility to freight transport whereas new areas of the city

provided new inner city circulation network like Progati Soroni, Rokeya Soroni, Mirpur

road, Satmasjid road, Asad Avenue, New Airport road, New Circular road (Map 3.1).

These roads offered greater mobility for freight transport. As a result the new industries

were mostly concentrated on Badda, Demra, Gulashan, Kafrul, Khilgaon, Mirpur,

Mohammadpur, Pallabi and Uttara has flourished as industrial areas. Table-3.2 is showing

that Tejgaon is accommodating the maximum whereas Kamrangir Char is

accommodating the minimum number of industries during 1903 to 2005.

3.4.2 Distribution of Industries within Area outside DMP

The area outside the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) was always second to DMP area

in terms of industrial development until the year 1976. From the year 1976 to 1996 the

industrial development of areas outside DMP took the lead kicking back the DMP area.

3

Figure 3.15: Thana wise Industrial Distribution of areas outside DMP.

The DMP area again took the lead after the 1997 till 2005 except the year 2004 where the

number of industries outside DMP area was much higher than DMP area.

Figure 3.15 is showing thana wise total number of industries from 1903 to 2006. The 3rd

highest number is seen in Savar thana and Keraniganj in the 5th highest among all the

nine thanas that are outside DMP area.

Gazipur is well connected with Dhaka, Mymensingh, Tangail, Narshingdi district. It is

crisscrossed by three major arteries; the Dhaka-Mymensingh road and Gazipur Tangail

Road and Nabinagar-Tangail road. So infrastructure was always a positive factor for

Gazipur. Gazipur sadar thana had attracted a lot of new industries whereas Kaliganj has

lost its glory as an industrial area. The Famous Muslim Cotton Mills is clinically dead and

there are no other new industries in this area.

Table-3.3 is showing a huge difference between Gazipur Sadar and Kaliganj thana in

terms of number of large scale manufacturing industries established up to 2005.

There are five thanas in Narayanganj. Among these five, two thanas are experiencing low

level of industrialization due to their geographical location. Bandar and Sonargaon thanas

are just opposite to the river Shitalakshay. These two thanas are linked with Dhaka only

with the Dhaka-Chittagong highway. Rupganj thana is accommodating the 4th highest

number of industries. Among all the nine thanas outside the DMP area Narayanganj Sadar

is accommodating maximum number of large scale manufacturing industries.

Introduction of new national highways like Dhaka-Chittagong highway, Dhaka-Sylhet

highway, Dhaka-Aricha highway, Dhaka-Mymensing highway, Dhaka-Maoa road and

Gazipur- Tangail roads created the opportunity to have better access and mobility in the

areas outside DMP (Map 3.2). Map 3.2 is showing the spatial development pattern of

industries within DMDP and shows that the industrial agglomeration is found in cluster

along these roads.

3.4.3 Location of Red Category Industries

The Department of Environment (DoE) has certain industrial classification. There are

three major classification; the green categories, orange categories and red. It furthermore

divided the orange category into two categories; Orange-A and Orange-B (Clemett,

Unknown). Among all these categories red category industries are the most hazardous

industries which are mostly responsible for water and air pollution in their surrounding

areas. These industries supposed to treat waste water before discharging them into nearby

drainage outlet. According to DoE Law all these polluting industries must have their own

effluent treatment plant (ETP) and it supposed to monitor this issue regarding waste water

44 | P a g e

disposal. But it is a matter of regret that DoE could not perform its job properly which

results regular discharge of huge quantity of waste water into the nearby channels. The

River inside DMDP area is the ultimate outfall of these canals or khals. A World Bank

study said four major rivers near Dhaka – the Buriganga, Shitalakhya, Turag and Balu —

receive 1.5 million cubic metres of waste water every day from 7,000 industrial units in

surrounding areas and another 0.5 million cubic metres from other sources (South, 2009).

This reference showed a very alarming situation for Dhaka Metro Area. Keeping this in

mind this research did the additional work to identify the red category industries and to

relate them in the real world context to find out the factors behind the location decision

tendencies.

It has been tried to categories the red, orange-A and B and green industries from survey

data of Detailed Area Plan Project of RAJUK. Here some problems were faced to identify

their category because the database was prepared considering the industrial classification

used in Census on Manufacturing Industries. The industrial census classified sector does

not match directly with DoE category. To minimize this problem each and every

industries were judged using industrial category of DoE. Sometimes it was very easy to

identify the red, orange or green industries considering their given category and sometime

the identification was done by names of respective industries.

Table-3.4: Number of Industrial Structures Categorized by DoE Classification

Table 3.4 shows that around 24% of the total structures used for manufacturing purpose

are used as red category industries. The overall industrial classification is shown in Map

3.3. Another map (Map 3.4) was prepared showing the location of red category industries

within DMDP area. In many cases, these industries are located in places nearer to a

drainage outfall like khals, rivers and sometimes near to drainage outlet like ditch or low

laying areas.

It is seen from the map 3.4 that many of the red category industries are located near the

river and khals and some near low laying areas that are connected to khals or river.

Figure 3.16: Share of Red Category Industries located in DMDP indicated Residential

Areas and Flood Flow & Agriculture Zones.

Figure 3.16 showed the fact that around 76% of polluting industrial structures are located

within the DMDP structure plan area indicated as Existing Urban Area, New Urban Area,

New Urban Land Development and Peripheral Urban Development areas which is

prohibited according to DMDP Structure Plan. According to DMDP Structure Plan the

hazardous industries must be established outside the locality and they should not dispose

any waste without treatment. According to this guideline the industries has be located

away from locality which eventually indicates the red category industries to be located in

the Flood Flow, Sub-Flood Flow Zone, High Value Agriculture Zone and Agriculture

Zone. But the permitted land uses in these zones doesn’t allow hazardous industries at all.

So there is ambiguity in the Structure Plan Policy related to industrial development within

DMDP area.

3.4.3.1 Red Category Industries and Location of Water bodies

According to the table 3.4 there are 2934 structures used as red category industry out of

12,206 structures related to manufacturing activities. This study wanted to focus further

more on the location of Red category industries with respect to proximity to rivers, khals

etc. There are 1150 red category structures within 250 meter proximity from the River

and Khals where as some 560 structures are within 100 meter proximity (Figure 3.17 and

3.18 and Map 3.5).

3.5 CONCLUSION

This chapter analyzed the development trend of industrial development and also analyzed

the spatial distribution pattern within DMDP area.

The Major Findings related to trend analysis and spatial developments are:

The trend analysis showed that Dhaka Metropolitan Police area was pioneer in industrial

development since 1903. The “Area outside the DMP” took lead over DMP area from

1976 to 1996 with a declining tendency from the year 1990. The industrial development

of the DMP area was rising with some insignificant but sharp fall from the year 1990. So

it can be concluded from the trend analysis of pre-DMDP Bangladesh period; the decline

in number of industries in “Area outside DMP” is supplemented by new industries in the

DMP area.

The trend analysis of post-DMDP Bangladesh period showed sharp decline in the number

of industries in the “Area outside DMP” in the year 2005 whereas the DMP area is

showing sharp rise at the same time with cumulative decline in the total number of

industries.

Though the development trend in DMP area is rising up from the year 1990 to 2005, the

total share of industries is higher in the “Area outside DMP”. There are some factors like

improvement of transportation system and provision of utilities like gas and electricity for

this development.

Quadrat Analysis method was used to identify how the development of these industries

occurs. In this analysis the calculated p-value was 0.0001 which is almost close to 0 and

makes the distribution pattern clustered. So the industries within DMDP area highly

clustered.

The red category industries are the hazardous polluting industries. There is a policy that

they has to be located outside locality which means their establishment can take place in

areas like the Flood Flow Zones and the Agriculture Zones. But these zones don’t permit

the development of hazardous industries at all. So there is a conflict between the Structure

Plan Policy and development control mechanism. These conflict need to be resolved by

the development authority soon.

CHAPTER-4

LOCATION COMPATIBILITY WITH DMDP AND INFLUENCIAL FACTORS

4.1 INTRODUCTION

To find out the incompatible industrial development, the Structure Plan policy of DMDP

was studied and it has been tried to locate the incompatible industrial development.

Factors that influenced this incompatible industrial development were revealed from the

questionnaire survey which was conducted among top officials of those industries which

have violated DMDP regulations. About 60 officials were interviewed.

4.2 LOCATION WISE COMPATIBILITY OF INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT

WITHIN DMDP

Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) Structure Plan is a policy level plan and

it had addressed the issue of industrial development in its policy. Structure Plan analyzed

the industrial trend of past 30 years and tried to apprehend the trend of development. It

observed a gradual northern shifting of industries from southern part i.e. Narayanganj.

Considering this apprehension, it proposed Special Incentive Zones Status for four areas

i.e. Savar, Dhamsona and Kashimpur, Gazipur municipality and Tongi municipalities

which are all in the northern part of DMDP (Map-4.1) and a Special Rehabilitation

Incentive Zone in the Narayanganj part of DMDP to help Narayanganj regain its past

glory. Following the proposal of DMDP Structure Plan; these four areas were given the

status of Special Incentive Zones for industrial development by Ministry of Industries.

But these proposed Special Incentive Zones and Special Rehabilitation Incentive Zone are

Structure Plan Indicated Existing Urban and Peripheral Urban areas. It discouraged the

development of new industrial estates because it found that the existing industrial estate

Tejgaon and Tongi totally underutilized (28% of plots were fully operational during the

DMDP study). This policy plan discouraged development of new industrial estates; it sets

some criteria for new development. It allows the non-polluting and non-toxic industries to

be built within the four incentive zones and Narayanganj rehabilitation zone. But there

were no guidelines how the new industries will be spatially distributed. As the DMDP

structure plan was approved by the Government of Bangladesh in 1997, this study only

concentrated on those industries to find the incompatibility that started after the year

1997. So, industries established after 1997 in those areas outside the DMDP proposed

Map-4.1

52 | P a g e

53 | P a g e

54 | P a g e

zones are identified as incompatible with DMDP (Annexure 4.1). According to this

criterion, 677 industries of Dhaka district, 68 industries of Gazipur District and 12

industries of Narayanganj District are not compatible with DMDP. As there was no

specific location identified for industrial development in the Urban Area Plan following

Structure Plan; it is further assumed that industries which are located in the designated

Flood Flow and Sub-Flood Flow Zone, High Value Agricultural Zone and Agricultural

Zone of Structure Plan are also not compatible with DMDP (Annexure-4.2 and Map 4.2).

A total of 841 new industries were established since 1998 to 2005 within the DMDP area.

341 new industries were established within the Area outside DMP which is mostly

covered by Main Flood Flow Zone, Sub-flood Flow Zone and Agriculture Zones except

some zones like Industrial Special Inceptive Zones and Special Rehabilitation Incentive

zone. Among these 341 new industries, 199 industries were located in the DMDP

structure plan designated Main Flood Flow Zone (MFFZ), Sub-flood Flow Zone (SFFZ)

and Agriculture Zones (AZ). The Distribution of new industries within these zones is

shown in table 4.1 and Figure 4.1

Table 4.1: Distribution of new industries in MFFZ, SFFZ and AZ (1998-2005).

4.3 LOCATION CHOICE AND VIEWS OF INDUSTRIAL MANAGEMENT.

The main objective of the interview with the top officials of industries is to know why

they chose a different location rather than the indicated locations for industrial

development. To know the factors; first it was tried to identify which industries were

established after 1997 (DMDP was approved by GoB in 197) from the Annual Report of

Establishment Size TPE 50-99 & 100+ Updated up to December, 2005. Sector-

Manufacturing. Seven hundred fifty seven new industries were established after 1997.

From these industries, 60 industries were selected randomly for questionnaire survey with

a standard questionnaire (Annexure-4.3) 95% confidence level and 12% confidence

interval. These selected industries were chosen from geographical areas that were

prohibited for any sort of development by DMDP Structure plan. This was done using

GIS overlay of DMDP Structure Plan with survey data of Detailed Area Plan for DMDP.

The Survey Data was very helpful for identifying incompatible spatial development with

DMDP Structure Plan. The findings of the questionnaire survey are described below

following the steps of questionnaire.

4.3.1 Comparison by the Interviewee between DMDP Proposed Location and Their

Present Industrial Location

There was a section in the questionnaire asking for the comments of interviewee about

DMDP proposed location and the present location of their industries. In this section they

were asked to give comparative weight ranging from 0 to 10 to their nearby DMDP

proposed location and their present location. Here they were asked to evaluate DMDP

location and their location in terms of five factors land value, transport facility, utility

provision, security and waste water disposal (Annexure-4.3). Given weight to these five

factors for both the locations by all sixty interviewee, all the weights were summed up

(Annexure-4.4) and were presented below (Figure 4.2).4.2

56 | P a g e

Figure 4.2: Factor wise comparative weightage between nearby DMDP location and

Present location of industries surveyed

It is very interesting to see that the industrialist themselves given their opinion in favour

of DMDP proposed locations regarding these five factors. Land value, utility services,

security and waste disposal facilities have more cumulative weightage than that of their

present location. They only gave higher weightage to transportation facilities for their

present location.

The collective total weightage of five factors for DMDP proposed location and present

locations of the interviewee is showing 51% (2098) weightage was given in favor of

DMDP proposed location whereas 49% (1999) weightage was given to the present

location of their industries.

4.3.2 Industrial Sector and Mode of Transport

The industrial management personals were asked about the mode of transport they use to

transport their finished product. In this regard different sector gave emphasis on different

57 | P a g e

mode of transport. Most of them gave their response on two mode of transport and a few

on three mode of transport. The table below is showing the result of multiple responses:

This multiple responses figure shows that covered van is the most used mode of transport

whereas truck occupies second highest. Use of pickup (12%) is also identical followed by

the use container movers (11%). Use of water vessel is 2nd lowest (5%) and air transport

& microbus used for transport of finished product are in the lowest percentage. Another

important observation from table 4.2 is that 74.6% among 60 respondents mentioned the

use of covered van, 55.9% truck, 22% pickup and 20.3% container mover.

Table 4.3 is showing sector wise tendency of using different mode of transport for their

finished product.

The readymade garment sector uses all the mode of transport. It uses the covered van and

truck most of the time and during large shipment it uses container movers. But it appears

strange that being the cheapest of all transport modes, use of water transport is rare. The

pharmaceutical industries use both covered van and container mover equally. Food and

beverage industries use only trucks whereas cotton textile sector use mostly covered van.

Leather and leather products industries have to carry huge weight; so they depend only on

container mover. Other sectors like wooden furniture, metallic product, non-metallic

product and agro based industries use truck as their primary mode whereas very few use

pickup and water vessels. Non metallic mineral product industries like the cement

industries largely depends on large covered van and large water vessels.

So mode of transport chosen by different sector of industries depends on the type of their

finished product and their destination. And these different modes of transportation

requires different category of transport infrastructure. So the need for different mode of

transport sometimes dictate industries where to choose the location for new

establishment. The Industrial development in the Ashulia area is one example of this

phenomenon. Before the development of Tongi-Ashulia road there had been no industries

59 | P a g e

in that area but after its development the Readymade Garments and Textile industries

started to grow along that road.

4.3.3 Knowledge about DMDP

This questionnaire survey reveals that about 68% of the respondents are not

knowledgeable about DMDP. Only 32% of respondents have heard about DMDP.

Figure 4.4: Respondent’s awareness of about DMDP

Among these 32% respondents who are aware about DMDP, only 42% respondents are

aware of the indicted areas for industrial development. Finally it can be concluded that

only 13.3% of the respondent are literate about DMDP.

Figure 4.5: Knowledge about industrial areas proposed by DMDP

60 | P a g e

The cross tabulation (Table 4.4) shows that 10 out of 19 respondents who are aware of

DMDP chose another location for no reason. The remaining 9 respondents have shown

some aspects like availability of utilities, worker, land, better accessibility, nearness to

Dhaka and EPZ, nearness to linked industries, nearness to water transport and better

security as the determining factor. 30 respondents who are not aware of DMDP out of

total 41, gave no reason for choosing another location where as they gave more emphasis

on availability of low land value and skilled labour. When the respondents were briefed

about the DMDP proposed location they simply didn’t agree with that location (5% of not

aware of DMDP).

4.3.4 Awareness about Environmental Laws

This part is the most promising findings of the questionnaire survey. About 98% of the

(59 out of 60) respondents are aware of environmental laws in Bangladesh. The main

cause of this awareness about environmental laws is the mandatory annual renewal of

Department of Environment certificate. The respondent who does not know about

environmental laws is merchandiser of a Knitwear factory. According to DoE rules

knitwear is within red category industry which make it mandatory for the industry to

renew its certificate each year. So the merchandiser may not know about the matter.

4.3.5 Labor Residence

Labor availability is one of many factors in choosing location for industrial establishment.

Al most all these industries are getting enough labor to run their production chain. So

these industries have always tried to establish the new one where the locality is not so far

away from their establishment. Sometimes the reverse incidence also took place. There

are many instances that the industrial agglomeration brings new labor class from a

distance places that started to reside in a nearby location from the industries. These

sometimes may lead to the creation of slums and squatters settlement.

Table 4.5 shows that out of 60 industries 14 industries were surveyed from Tetuljhora

union, 10 from Yearpur , 6 from Ashulia and 1 from Biralia union of Savar Upazila,

Kashimpur, Kayaltia of Gazipur Sadar thana are got 8 industries each and Basan union is

locating 4 industries. Tarabo, Murapara, Rupganj Union of Rupganj Upazila have fewer.

Figure 4.6: Locality wise residence of labors of the surveyed industries

Figure 4.6 is showing the number of labors residing in each locality of all the surveyed

industries. This figure shows maximum number of labor is residing in Ashulia whereas

Yearpur is accommodation second highest number of industrial labors. Compared to

number of industries Tarabo union of Rupganj is accommodating highest average

industrial labor. Two industries from Gazipur Sadar and Konabari were not found in the

Census data the cause may be that their inception year is beyond 2005. So their number of

labor is not available.

4.3.6 Relation between Location of industries and Residence of top Management

This cross tabulation tried to relate the location of industries and the residence of the top

management of those industries. It is seen that the industrialist is much interested to

reside in Dhaka. The Top Management of Industries located in Ashulia, Savar, Tetuljhora

or even in Basan, Kashimpur, Kayaltia, Gazipur and Jamgora reside in Dhaka. Among 60

63 | P a g e

respondents top management of 43 respondents reside in Dhaka (72%). In case of other

industries located at Bandar, Murapara, Rupgonj and Tarabo the top management reside

within close vicinity to the industries.

Table 4.6: Location of Industries and Residence of Top Management


An important noticeable point was that, the top management of these industries didn’t

want to reside in Dhaka crossing the all time traffic congested Jatrabari point. Some

exceptions were seen in the industries of Konabari, Birulia and Tetuljhora where the top

management also resides close to the industries.

4.3.7 Availability of Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP)

A total of 22 industries are there that generate waste water. Figure 4.7 shows that 4 out of

22 industries have effluent treatment plant but maximum number don’t have any effluent

treatment plan. This means majority of industries (82%) don’t treat the water before

discharging it to the nearby khals or waterbodies.

Figure 4.7: Percentage of Respondents to Availability of ETP

This scenario is very alarming for any environment concern personal and this cannot be a

sustainable form of industrial development. The industrialist producing not only at the

cost of raw material, capital and labor cost but also at the cost of our vulnerable

environment.

The above table shows that only one readymade garment (RMG) industry among 7 has

ETP for treating their waste water. So, about 90% of RMG sector industries are producing

their product at the cost of our environment. Another associated industry, cotton textile

industries don’t have any ETP but generating and discharging untreated waste water

thereby polluting our very scarce surface water. Among these sectors the pharmaceutical

industries showing some respect to the environment, 50% of the pharmaceutical

industries are treating their waste water.

66 | P a g e

But for some industry it is mandatory to get annual clearance from the department of

environment. Industries like pharmaceuticals, textile, leather, metallic products or even

wooden furniture require annual clearance certificate from DoE.

It appears very interesting if someone try to relate the table 4.8 and table 4.7. This table

shows that among 20 RMG industries 19 have renewed their DoE certificate whereas the

previous table showed that only 1 out of 7 has ETP. The same is for the cotton textile

industries. None of the waste water producing 6 cotton textile industries has ETP but 16

out of 19 industries get renewal. These lead to some question about how these industries

are being able to renew the DoE certificate.

4.3.9 Priority of Factors influencing Location Decision

The respondents were given 23 options for choosing the most important to the least

important factor which were taken into account during selecting the location for their

present industries. The most important factor was marked as the first priority for choosing

the location whereas the least important factor was marked the lowest priority. Before

going for looking at which are the 1st or 2nd or 3rd or the 20th priority, the Summary of

response by the interviewee may be reviewed to identify which factors get the maximum

response. This can be measured by the percentage of case for each factor (Table 4.9).

Among these 60 respondents; 59 persons on responded on electric supply issue (98.3%),

56 persons responded on land value issue (93.3%), 54 on gas supply issue (90%), 53 on

skilled labour issue (88.3%), 50 persons on access to market (83.3%) and raw material

carrying cost related issue (83.3%), 48 persons on law and order situation (80%) related

issue and 47 persons on social facilities (78.3%) issue. These aforementioned factors have

more than 75% of case response which means, 75% interviewee responded on these

issues.

Factors with case percentage of 40% to 75% are local agency cooperation (50%), finished

product carrying cost (51.7%), nearness to linked industries (51.7%), water supply (60%),

nearness to the city center (60%) and nearness to highway (65%). There are some factors

which have attained responses less than 40% of cases. These factors are nearness to

railway (16.7%), availability of drainage outlet (28.3%), nearness to airways (31.7%),

unskilled labour (31.7%), availability of drainage outfall (33.3%), fiscal incentives (35%)

and nearness to river transport (36.7%).

To find out the successive priorities of different factors average weightage method was

used. The First priority was given the highest value 10 whereas the 20th priority was given

the weightage of 0.5. The Priority and its respective weightage are shown in Table 4.10.

From the SPSS data it was first derived the priority of each and every factor of all the 60

respondents and then it was arranged in 23 factor wise tables where each table contains

sixty rows for prioritizing sixty respondent’s view. After arranging all the 23 factors,

weightage for each priority was put in the weightage field.

Table 4.10: Showing Priority wise weightage for deriving the priority of factors

10 5.5 20 0.5

For example factor land value/rent received 1st priority; so land value/rent factor will

score 10 whereas 4th priority from 2nd respondent was given score 8.5. After completion

of these step total weight of each factor was derived. The weighted average was derived

dividing the total weightage by the number of respondent (Annexure-4.5). This is the

weighted average for each factor. The highest priority is derived from the highest average

weightage (Table 4.11).

Table 4.11 is showing the availability of skilled labors as 1st priority and the 2nd priority is

Land Value/Rent. But Land Value should be the most prominent factor which drives them

to violet the law. The exception happens as the land was bought years back that was

revealed during the interview with the management. And very strangely Electricity

Supply is the third priority. Because it is known to all that electricity is a common factor

though that is mandatory for any industrial establishments and it is available throughout

the DMDP. So the respondents may have identified this factor keeping in mind the

quality of Electricity Supply. Nearness to highway is in the 4th priority position with Gas

supply in the 5th priority. In this way the Availability of drainage outlet was the 23rd

priority.

As Land Value/Rent is in the 2nd priority for establishing industries in the DMDP

prohibited zones; it was further studied by the author to find out the reality on the present

context. It was earlier stated that, the already established industries had their purchased

land long before their establishment. The findings of the field survey for land value are

shown in the table 4.12 and 4.13.

4.3.10 Multiple Responses Regarding Relocation of Industries

Response of interviewee about relocation of industries outside DMDP shows different

requirements as incentives (Figure 4.8).

Figure 4.8: Multiple responses regarding relocation of Industries

Highest percentage (19%) of respondents has asked for subsidized land value for the new

location. Another 16% have asked for better transport facilities whereas 15% have asked

for proper utility services like gas and electricity. Some 7% have asked for arrangement

of bank loan in subsidized rate whereas 6% have asked to ensure security. 5%

respondents have refused to relocate their industry from present location and 6%

respondents made no comments on this issue.

4.4 CONCLUSION

This chapter analyzed the compatibility of industrial development with the DMDP

Structure Plan as well as discussed the issues that came up from the questionnaire survey

72 | P a g e

conducted among industrial top management of DMDP Structure Plan incompatible

industrial establishments. The Major Findings are

After the approval of DMDP in 1997 there are 841 new industries (Bangladesh Bureau of

Statistics (BBS) 2007). Among these industries, 757 industries (Annexure 4.1) are

located in the DMDP incompatible area. Around 199 industries (Annexure 4.2) are

located in the DMDP Structure Plan Indicated Main Flood Flow Zone, Sub-Flood Flow

Zone, High Value Agriculture Zone and Agriculture Zone.

The comparison of DMDP proposed location and their present location shows that the

respondents have given more preference to the DMDP proposed locations. The only

factor for locating their respective industries to the DMDP incompatible area is Land

Value/Rent.

Skilled Labor was chosen as 1st priority by the industrial management though during

relocation they gave highest priority on subsidized land value. They have chosen Land

Value as the 2nd priority because there is significant difference between the land values in

their location and the DMDP location. Electricity and Gas Supply was chosen as the 3rd

and 5th priority. This means they will choose those locations which can feed them with

better electricity and gas supply.

There are different industrial sectors with specific transportation needs. The 4th and 8th

priorities which are nearness to national highway and access to market reflect their sector

wise need for transportation system. This was also revealed from the question mode of

transport use for carrying finished products. The residence of top industrial management

also showing the factor that better mobility through the National High was one of the

important determinants for location choice by owners.

Almost all the industries are aware of environmental laws whereas only 18% of the

polluting industries are running their own effluent treatment plant (ETP) and they are

getting the DoE annual renewal. Here lays a big question. How these industries are

getting the renewal from DoE without running the ETP. This process of illegal renewal is

encouraging the development of hazardous industries without proper measures to reduce

environmental hazard and there by polluting the surface water and air of DMDP area.

The last findings was what are the incentives that they will be looking for to relocate

their industries outside DMDP and it shows similar result as the 2nd priority. Maximum

respondents have asked for land in subsidized value with better transport facilities,

proper utility service, provision of bank loan and security etc.

CHAPTER-5

RECOMMENDATION AND CONCLUSION

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Findings of this study would be very helpful for planners, economist and policy makers of

Dhaka Metro. It is also important for the environmentally concerned people who have

always asked for protection of environment and river system of Dhaka. This study

focuses on trend analysis and corresponding spatial distribution of industries. This

analysis shows change in trend, affects distribution pattern in different locations where

some factors are prominent to influence the development. The Dhaka Metropolitan

Development Plan (DMDP) indicated some locations for industrial development as

incentive zones and rehabilitation zones and it restricts haphazard development of

polluting industries within these areas. The only mechanism it suggested for the location

of polluting industries was that the location should be in a place where they can operate

their own effluent treatment plant and is away from locality. But the spatial distribution

pattern and trend analysis along with the factor analysis showed that there had been no

control over the development of industrial establishments. Industrial development is

continuing in its own pace with approval from utility providing agencies like TITAS,

DESCO, REB and even the department of environment.

5.2 MAJOR FINDINGS OF THE RESEARCH:

The major findings of the research can be showed in terms of spatial distribution trend of

industries and incompatibility with DMDP.

Spatial Distribution Trend:

Dhaka starts the journey towards industrialization with its fast ever large scale

manufacturing in the year 1903. Till the year 1965, there has been no continuity in the

industrial development trend of DMDP area. After the year 1965 the study area started

experiencing steady industrialization. Since the year 1977, it showed a consistent and

faster upward movement till 1999. The area outside the DMP showed a declining

tendency after the year 1990 whereas the industrial development of the DMP area was

rising. The annual number of industries of DMP area was more than the area outside

DMP in the year 1997 and the trend continued till the year 2005 with a sudden fall in the

year 2004.

74 | P a g e

Analysis of Spatial Distribution Pattern:

The spatial distribution pattern is very important to study how spatial phenomenon

behaves. Quadrat analysis is the most perfect method to identify how the development of

these industries occurs. In this analysis the calculated p-value was 0.0001 which is almost

close to 0 and makes the distribution pattern clustered. So the industries within DMDP

area highly clustered.

Incompatibility with DMDP:

According to the Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) Structure Plan There

should not be any industries within the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Area after the

approval of DMDP in the year 1997. But this research showed that around 500 new

industries were established after the year 1997 which accounts for 60% of new industries

within DMDP area. This is a gross violation of DMDP Structure Plan Policy.

DMDP Structure Plan has specific policy regarding polluting industries. It does not allow

red category/polluting industries to be located near or within any locality. But the

distribution map is showing around 76% polluting industries are located within the

Structure Plan designated Existing Urban Areas, Peripheral Urban Areas and New Urban

Areas. It allowed industries to be located away from locality and on condition of not

discharging untreated effluent to the nearby drainage outlet. So the allowable areas are the

Flood Flow Zones, Agriculture Zones or High Value Agriculture Zones. But Structure

Plan does not allow any sort of industrial development within these zones. There are 19%

polluting industries located in these zones. Most of the polluting industries are located

near water bodies like river and khals (around 39% are in 250 meters proximity with

River and Khals).

Summary of Spatial Development Trend of post DMDP period is shown below in a

tabular form:

Development.

There are a total of 2465 large scale manufacturing industries within the DMDP area

since 1903. Among these industries only 1624 industries were there before the approval

of DMDP. After the approval of DMDP another 841 new industries were added to the

total which is 34.11%. This reflects that the post DMDP industrial development trend is

more prominent than it was since 1903.

5.3 Policy Recommendations

The Development Control Authority had so far prepared the plan to control and guide the

development of the area. But this study is showing that there are some conflicts between

the policy laid down by the authority and their development control mechanism. These

conflict need to be resolved very soon.

Another important issue is revealed through this study about coordination among the

Development Control Authority and the utility providing line agencies. The Development

Control Authority must coordinate all other line agencies regarding the approval of

industries through which they get connection from respective agencies. It should be made

mandatory for all the line agencies to follow the DMDP Structure Plan policy as well as

Detailed Area Plan (DAP). In reality, other line agencies doesn’t feel it necessary to

consult with the Development Authority while giving permission to an individual

industry and these consequences are the vital factors for unplanned and haphazard

industrial establishment. As the DMDP is prepared for the whole RAJUK jurisdiction, all

development activities within this area must be compatible with the Structure Plan and

Detailed Area Plan.

There may be a one window cell with all the concern agencies related to industrial

development as it is proposed in the Building Construction Act 2008. Moreover, different

industries require different infrastructure provision, different type of labor intensity,

different type of waste discharge facilities and different quantity & quality utility

connections. These issues should be taken into consideration while allowing the new

industries to be established in a location. This policy can reduce the chances of industrial
