Bangladesh Ambassador Sadia Faizunnesa has presented her credentials to Chilean president Gabriel Boric Font at Palacio de La Moneda in Chile's capital Santiago.  Sadia assumed the charge of ambassador of Bangladesh to Brazil on October 17, 2021. She will also serve as Bangladesh's non-resident ambassador to Chile and Bolivia. Following the presentation of her credentials Friday, the Bangladesh ambassador had a meeting with Gabriel Boric. Sadia spoke about the friendship between legendary Latin American leader Fidel Castro and Bangladesh's Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Boric said he was touched when he learned what Fidel Castro said about Bangabandhu in 1973: "I have not seen the Himalayas. But I have seen Sheikh Mujib. In personality and in courage, this man is the Himalayas. I have thus had the experience of witnessing the Himalayas." The Chilean president lauded the rapid, unprecedented socio-economic progress of Bangladesh, calling the country a role model for developing countries. Boric also gladly accepted the invitation to visit Bangladesh. Read more: New Zealand's new envoy presents his credentials to President Hamid
