The consul general sought the support and cooperation of MoFA to safeguard the well-being of expatriate Bangladeshis in Dubai and the Northern Emirates. He also expressed his intention to explore new opportunities in the areas of trade, business and investment between the two countries.
Bangladeshis are among the largest foreign workers in the UAE. Many have benefited also from the two-month amnesty scheme launched by the UAE last month. They are also one of the main source of remittances for the South Asian country.
Rashedujjaman and Al Qaseer expressed hope that their respective offices would work closely across all areas of mutual interest.
To support their countrymen, the consulate last month set up a help desk at the Al Awir immigration centre for Bangladeshi nationals seeking amnesty.
