Asia and Africa Online Committee Meeting

The Asia and Africa Committee held its online committee meeting on 11 March. Mr Masakazu Yagyu, Secretary General at the Hong Kong Japanese Chamber of Commerce & Industry (JCCI), shared the findings of the Japanese Chamber's mission to Bangladesh and the opportunities companies found there. He told members that the country’s GDP growth rate has been recorded 23.6% higher than previous years. With relatively low labour cost, many Japanese companies have been attracted to invest in Bangladesh for its emerging business opportunity. He also pointed out potential security issues in Bangladesh, which investors and visitors should be aware of.
