Border facilities

---

IT is indeed a good decision of the government to construct better infrastructure at the land border ports. It will certainly facilitate better handling of export-import business activities. It is necessary to facilitate the border trading with better infrastructures.

Benapole, Banglabandha, Sonamasjid, Hili and Bibir Bazar land ports have otherwise modern facilities.

But similar facilities do not exist on the other side of the border. In the absence of the facilities on the other side of the border, export consignments from Bangladesh face many problems.

It is also necessary to improve the facilities for the passengers of the two countries, who travel for tourism and business. The passengers have to wait in small places or walk a long distance to complete the customers' and other formalities at the border.
