Obviously the current government is deplorable, but there are very few things in which I believe more strongly than I believe in India.
Brunei vs. Bangladesh would be the purest match between rich dictatorship (absolute somewhat-islamic monarchy style) and a poor democracy (one that has competitive elections) that I can think of.
This isn't the sort of thing that would be visible to a foreigner, but despite appearances, Bangladesh is not a democracy. Elections in Bangladesh involve multiple parties but they are not competitive.
Is it like Russian electoral type events or is it something a little less ethically problematic?
