Tofail to share idea with top businesses today
The government has planned to float a strong platform soon along with top business leaders in an effort to help businesses overcome the challenges for maintaining an ‘impressive’ track record on economic growth and development. Commerce minister Tofail Ahmed is moving ahead with the idea to ensure a better coordination between the government and country’s business community so that the problems are addressed and possibilities can be explored together.
‘Yes, the commerce minister is planning to go ahead with the idea,’ a senior official at the commerce ministry told the news agency on Monday.
Asked about the name of the platform, he said the name of the platform was yet to be finalised. ‘It can be named as Business Council,’ he added.
Responding to a question, the official said the commerce minister would share his idea with the top business leaders today and would listen to the problems now facing by the country’s business community.
Former and present leaders of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association, Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association and Dhaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry are likely to attend the meeting to be held in a city hotel.
