Adviser of the Ministry of Youth and Sports Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuiyan has said Bangladesh and the US can work in unison to make the youths capable of the international marketplace alongside patronising their startup programmes to help them become entrepreneurs.
He made the appeal when the US Embassy Charge d’Affaires Helen LaFave paid a courtesy call on the adviser at the ministry office at Secretariat on Tuesday, reports BSS.
During the meetings, they have discussed labour policy, ILO labour roadmap, labour action plan, labour protection, global labour policy, rights of the labour, human rights, demographic dividend and various issues of the ministries of Youth and Sports and Labour and Employment.
Mentioning that the last fascist government has destroyed the sports sectors, the adviser said, "The Youth and Sports Ministry has been working sincerely to run each of the federations with appointing efficient people by depoliticising the sports sector."
Asif Mahmud, also adviser of the Labour and Employment Ministry, mentioned that the main problem of the fascist government was distance with the labourers, saying, "We have removed the distance and are working tirelessly to solve their problems in accordance with the international labour law after visiting them in person."
He said the new Bangladesh is the outcome of the revolution of the brave young generation.
