Muhith happy over foreign aid flow

Tuesday, 5 August 2014


Finance Minister AMA Muhith on Tuesday expressed satisfaction over the foreign aid flow to the country in the last fiscal year (FY 14) as it hit US$3.0 billion following a significant rise in disbursement by the World Bank. "Aid commitment to the country has increased fantastically, but compared to that disbursement is slow to some extent ....Receiving $ 3 billion last year is a good performance although it would have been ideal had it reached $ 3.2 billion. I'm quite happy about it," he told reporters at his ERD office, according to a news agency.
