Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus on Tuesday urged Malaysian investors to explore opportunities in Bangladesh, saying the country is opening up with growing market access and expanding business prospects. "Come to Bangladesh and see for yourself... I welcome you to Bangladesh," he said, adding that the country is fascinating, with a large population, most of whom are young. Speaking at a programme ‘Trade and Investment Opportunities between Bangladesh and Malaysia’, he said these young people's aspirations are limitless. Prof Yunus said the interim government has introduced measures to make Bangladesh more business-friendly, pointing out that its past progress fell short of its potential. He said Bangladesh offers young and creative people not only within Bangladesh but beyond that as many young people are all over the world. “Bangladesh is trying to become business-friendly in every possible way… I found an unlimited prospect in changing Bangladesh.” “Bangladesh offers young people, creative people,” said Prof Yunus, urging the investors to take advantage of the young Bangladeshi diaspora in many countries. Referring to young Bangladeshis living abroad, the Chief Adviser said they always have the hunger to do something for Bangladesh.
