Thailand wants to connect with Chattogram port
Thailand intends to improve its connectivity with the Chattogram port to enhance economic activities with the South Asian nation, Manu Sithiprasasana, head of a visiting Thai business delegation, said yesterday.
Sithiprasasana made the comments at a meeting with the Chittagong Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) at World Trade Centre in the port city.
Earlier, CCCI President Mahbubul Alam pointed out that the trade balance heavily tilted to Thailand. Bilateral trade between the two Asian nations was $1.31 billion, Alam said.
“We need to participate at trade fairs in Thailand on a regular basis to display Bangladeshi goods,” he said.
Apipong Khunakornbodintr, senior investment officer of Thailand Board of Investment; AHM Shafikuzzaman, joint secretary of commerce ministry; Syed Jamal Ahmed, vice president of CCCI, and Mahfuzul Haq Shah, former director of CCCI, were present at the meeting.
