Recalling the contribution of Bangladeshi expatriates to nation building, Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus today said the expatriates help Bangladesh make a turnaround from ruins.
“It is the expatriates who help sustain the country (by sending their remittances in hard time),” he said while speaking at a community reception at the Bangladesh Embassy in Tokyo.
Prof Yunus said the ousted government left the state exchequer and banks empty and if the expatriates would not support, Bangladesh would not have turned around.
He said the interim government will, of course, perform the responsibilities bestowed upon it but the participation of the Bangladesh expatriates should be strengthened in nation building.
The Chief Adviser asked them to take initiatives to increase business in Bangladesh.
“As a citizen, you must take the responsibility of the state repair,” he said.বিস্তারিত
