World Bank Managing Director Anna Bjerde on Thursday reiterated the global lender's support for the Interim Government to rebuild Bangladesh.
Bjerde made the comments when she called on Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum annual meeting in the Swiss city of Davos.
"I want to express our support. Count on us for whatever support you need," she told Professor Muhammad Yunus.
The World Bank Managing Director for Operations said the Bank would like to extend its support to Bangladesh in the second half of the year.
During the talks, they spoke briefly about the July uprising, the reform initiatives of the Interim Government, and the state of the country's economy.
