Poland keen to enhance business contacts with Bangladesh: Foreign ministry

Pawel Milewski, Director, Asia Pacific Department of Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Poland, has pointed out that both “Bangladesh and Poland may realise the huge potentials of bilateral trade and commerce”.

He says Bangladesh can benefit by importing quality food products like fish, dairy, meat, egg, poultry from Poland at a competitive price and quality, the foreign ministry said.

He made those comments during a meeting with Secretary (bilateral) Kamrul Ahsan at the foreign ministry on Sunday.

The Polish director also underlined the importance of high level visits from Bangladesh to Poland.

The visit of President Md Abdul Hamid to the east European nation this month, Milewski said, will provide opportunity for meeting his counterpart and two sides may discuss bilateral issues.

He said Poland is ready to share knowledge in the areas of green technology and green development with Bangladesh.

They will explore the possibility of offering scholarship to Bangladeshi students on subjects related to maritime affairs as proposed by Dhaka.

Kamrul Ahsan thanked the Polish government for their continued support to Bangladesh on the Rohingya issue, and requested support to ensure safe and dignified return of the Rohingyas to their homeland.

They reviewed the progress of different issues and discussed the future course of actions during the meeting.

Both sides agreed to maintain possible cooperation in different international fora and platforms.

The foreign ministry said the meeting was aimed at “broadening and strengthening” the bilateral cooperation.

Kamrul urged the Polish delegation to encourage Polish investors and entrepreneurs to invest in Bangladesh in various sectors like shipbuilding, agricultural, food processing, blue economy, energy cooperation and mining.

Both sides also agreed to reinforce and establish cooperation in the sectors like education, culture, agriculture, energy and mining, and science and technology.

Dhaka requested the Polish delegation to ease the visa procedure for Bangladeshi students, businessmen and visitors.

He mentioned the availability of a large pool of skilled and semi-skilled professionals and workers in Bangladesh and proposed the Polish side to hire Bangladeshi workers and professionals to fulfil their labour shortage.
