Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen on Thursday laid emphasis on stronger partnership and collaborations, noting that Bangladesh is moving towards the right direction to become a trillion-dollar economy by 2035, reports UNB.
“We have potential to become an international business and manufacturing hub and it is time we start creating narratives which would allow Bangladesh platforms to become global incubators for innovation and entrepreneurship,” Momen told a luncheon meeting.
The Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industries (FBCCI) hosted the networking luncheon at a hotel in Dhaka.
The foreign minister said Bangladesh will have to address the challenges and it is important to have stronger partnership and collaborations.
Speaking as the chief guest, Momen said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina followed Bangabandhu’s footsteps and established Bangladesh as a “vibrant economy” and a “land of opportunity.”
In fact, he said, Sheikh Hasina has launched a new vision for today’s world - ensuring food, clothing, shelter, education, health services, welfare of the people and right to vote by maintaining friendship, peace and stability with all.
“I call this philosophy “Hasinanomics,” Momen said, adding that she introduced four driving forces to achieve Hasinanomics - digital Bangladesh, innovation and creativity development; entrepreneurship and individual Initiative and free market liberal enterprise.”
As a result, our economy stands on a solid foundation, he added.
