Bangladesh can be an outsourcing player: Seminar at New Jersey
FE report | Sunday, 22 June 2008
In today's globalised world outsourcing is a major foreign currency earner for many countries. Bangladesh with a large pool of young talents is better placed than many countries to cater to the growing market.
Bangladesh Ambassador to the United States M Humayun Kabir said this at a seminar on "Outsourcing to Bangladesh" held in New Jersey on June 15.
He said the growth of internet penetration, wide coverage of fiber optics network, easily trainable English speaking manpower, besides other factors can enable Bangladesh to get significant outsourcing businesses from around the globe.
With support from the government bodies and the non resident Bangladeshis, Bangladesh can certainly become a significant outsourcing source, he said.
Organised by American Association of Bangladeshi Engineers and Architects-New Jersey Chapter (AABEANJ ), the seminar was also attended by Md Ghulam Hussain, Council Coordinator and Join Secretary of Business Promotion Council, Ministry of Commerce as a special guest.
Chairman of Bangladesh Shrimp and Fish Foundation and Board Member-Bangladesh Better Business Bureau Syed Mahmudul Huq, CEO and Co-founder of Vonair and UTC Associates Aziz Ahmad, Plainsboro, NJ's councilman Nurun Nabi, and Rutgers University Professor of Finance and Economics Mahmud Hassan also spoke.
Ghulam Hussain appreciated AABEANJ's initiative to hold the seminar and assured all support and cooperation from the government to encourage and motivate people to outsourcing business. With support from the government bodies and the NRBs, he hoped, Bangladesh can certainly reach the expected level in outsourcing.
Syed Mahmudul Huq spoke on how to expand the linkage between companies in Bangladesh and the NRBs and emphasised on concentrating in IT outsourcing as well as overall Business Process outsourcing (BPO).
Bangladeshi business entrepreneurs in the US spoke about their successes and struggles and took part in the panel discussion.
Participants in the discussion included Plainsboro councilman Nurun Nabi, Business Entrepreneur Nasim Ali, founder and Managing Partner of AT Capital Ifty Islam, AABEANJ President, Mahbub Haque, Ziaur Rhaman and Senior Vice President, Credit Suisse (Investment Bank) IT Al Mamun and MC Gulam.
