These agreements include the Bangladesh Environmental Sustaina-bility and Transformation (BEST), the First Green and Climate Resilient Development (GCRD) Project, the Resilient Infrastructure Building Project (RIVER), and the Bangladesh Phase-I of the Accelerating Transport and Trade Connectivity in Eastern South Asia (ACCESS) initiative.
In the convoluted system of international politics and commerce, Bangladesh just solidified its place as the process’s leader. International leaders have taken notice of Bangladeshi and Indian direct aid to Sri Lanka, notably during the country’s political and economic instability after Sri Lanka declared bankruptcy.
As a consequence, Sri Lanka now has the chance to alter its direction. Bangladesh has offered Sri Lanka financial support in the amount of $20 million.
Bangladesh has recently become a worldwide city thanks to the introduction of Metrorail. Additionally, by constructing a long flyover bridge from the airport to Gazipur to ease traffic congestion, economic and political expansion with Northeast India will extend the path of sustainable and dynamic development of Bangladesh’s future economic infrastructure.
Japan’s involvement in the Bangladesh Economic Corridor’s building, especially with North East India, has been effective in attracting the interest of the global business community. The nation’s construction of a single or many deep-sea ports has contributed to the region’s economic growth gaining notice on a worldwide scale.
Furthermore, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s firm attitude on the opposition party’s caretaker government does not support the opposition party’s unreasonable and unsuitable allegation.
The most recent statement made by the Japanese envoy supports this. The likelihood that the opposition party will favor holding the next election, however, is steadily rising. In the present situation, it would be difficult to find a candidate for Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina who could keep Bangladesh stable and in a position of active leadership in the political and economic arenas.
Any other political party in Bangladesh finds it particularly challenging to coordinate because of the present government’s complex creative dynamics, especially in the fields of education, culture, and economic expertise. With this in mind, the recent tour of the Prime Minister to the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan has been quite successful. Without a doubt, it will restrict the expansion of the economy.
The world’s leaders and the people of Bangladesh believe that Bangladesh’s great people will continue Sheikh Hasina’s development path.
The role of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina as a trustworthy leader in domestic politics in Bangladesh has been cemented.
