Sheikh Hasina hopes Japan to give more support

The prime minister Sheikh Hasina on Tuesday expressed her firm optimism that the Japanese government would provide more assistance for Bangladesh’s socioeconomic development. ‘As our government has been working hard for the welfare of the country and people, I hope that the Japanese government would give more assistance in Bangladesh’s socioeconomic uplift,’ she said. The prime minister said this when Miki Watanabe, a member of Upper House of Japanese Parliament, paid a courtesy call on her at Ganabhaban in the afternoon. After the meeting, PM’s press secretary AKM Shameem Chowdhury briefed reporters. The prime minister termed the relations between Bangladesh and Japan as historic and time-tested. ‘As a major development partner, Japan is playing an important role in Bangladesh’s socioeconomic uplift,’ she mentioned. Watanabe, a successful entrepreneur and education-lover, recalled prime minister Sheikh Hasina’s recent visit to Japan and thanked her for paying the tour.
