Most of these countries which are regarded as dominantly Muslim run types of governments that may not be described as strictly Islamic. Bangladesh is a Parliamentary Republic, for example, and her political struggles could be understood in this context.

See http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/country_profiles/1160598.stm#leaders for the political divide between two female opponents, Begum Khaleda Zia and Sheikh Hasina.
