British High Commissioner to Bangladesh Robert Chatterton Dickson has visited Chattogram and said the UK has played a part in the development of Chattogram for more than 200 years, reports UNB.

"It's been great to be here in Chattogram talking to partners about our strong existing links and the potential to do even more, including in the fields of business and commerce, development, security and defence," he said.

The High Commissioner said those deep connections give them a terrific basis for strengthening these relationships with an increasingly prosperous Bangladesh.

During the visit, the envoy visited the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Cemetery and paid his respects to Commonwealth soldiers and others who sacrificed their lives in World War II.

He also thanked employees of the Cemetery while paying the visit.
