“The relationship, the way it has been progressing over the past decades, will continue to improve,” said Syed Aminul Kabir, director of the Bangladesh China Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCCI), adding that “China is going to be our best trade partner in the days to come.”
Kabir, also CEO of May International Trade Services Ltd, who just concluded his trip to the 8th China-South Asia Expo in Kunming, capital city of southwest China’s Yunnan Province, told Xinhua on Saturday that it was a great experience.
“It’s a really great platform, not only between China and Bangladesh expositions. It is also an opportunity to expand our footprint to South Asian countries, including some ASEAN countries,” Kabir said.
“I have seen countries such as Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and so on. China has not only provided us with a platform to showcase our products to the Chinese, but Bangladesh has also had the opportunity to showcase its products, services, and collaborations globally, not only in China,” Kabir said.
Noting that China is also one of the biggest development partners for Bangladesh, Kabir said that over the past years, the two countries have achieved fruitful results under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). Looking ahead, he believes the BRI will continue to bring positive outcomes.
“Bangladesh is one of China’s fastest-growing partners. We seek China’s support to strengthen that. We look forward to enhancing communication under the BRI so that the initiative can achieve its goals in a positive and efficient manner. This is why Bangladesh is very optimistic and eager to engage in initiatives led by China” he said.
“We are committed to being an active part of this collaboration” Kabir stressed.
