In a National Times report, Rahman Group Chairman S. M. Zillur Rahman said Bangladesh can become a destination for foreign investment if it builds the right investment climate.
He said the economy was under strain from the dollar crisis, lower remittances, and political uncertainty, and that skilled manpower will be worth more to Bangladesh than its natural resources.
He said Bangladesh lags other Asian countries in exporting skilled workers, that developed countries need trained workers, and that automation in the fourth industrial revolution makes higher technical skills essential for the next generation.
