For avoiding foreign aid

---

Bangladesh should reduce its dependence on foreign aid and implement development projects with domestic resources. Foreign assistance can be taken only when a project cannot be implemented with its own resources.
The government has sought foreign assistance for the Padma Bridge. What is the merit of increasing Bangladesh's loan burden?
Bangladesh can utilise foreign remittances for the purpose. The government must always think of funding projects with internal resources.
We would request the authorities to reduce the dependence on foreign aid.
