Fulfilling Bangabandhus visions is our collective duty: BGMEA chief

Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) President S.M. Mannan (Kochi) on Saturday said it is their collective responsibility to fulfil the dream of Sonar Bangla envisioned by the Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

He said under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh is progressing towards realizing this dream, with the garment industry playing a significant role.

The industry is committed to achieving the goal of $100 billion in garment exports by 2030, he said.
He said that every citizen of the country will get a better life, and everyone will enjoy the benefits of freedom - the present Board of BGMEA is working with this conviction.

The observations were made when the BGMEA Board led by President S.M. Mannan (Kochi) paid homage to the Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, at his mausoleum in Tungipara, Gopalganj on May 4.
