Foreign investment
Sumon Dutta, On e-mail
The present caretaker government is going to deal with some big investments. Investment is good, if both sides get benefit from it. But it is very clearly written in the constitution that the caretaker government has no right to deal or sign any international business agreement with others, except on a poll-related issue. We are sure Tata investment, gas pipeline, transit issue etc have no relation with free and fair election. But many foreign countries are pressing us for those deals.It is not good. They should understand that this government cannot undertake such projects. If they could wait for 5 years, then why can't they wait for another 18 months ? At present, Bangladesh is passing through a transitional period. They should understand it. Transit, gas pipeline, Tata investment are big issues for Bangladesh. Our political government will discuss those issues in parliament. Then they will evaluate how much benefit we will get from those deals. It is our misfortune that no political party discussed those issues in parliament in the past. They overlooked those issues for cheap political reasons.
