Johannes Jutt, the newly appointed World Bank Vice President for South Asia, with Principal Advisor Dr. Muhammad Yunus. In the meeting, Johannes Jutt expressed strong support for inclusive growth and praised the Principal Advisor for the interim public relations program in the economic sector. Jutt met the Principal Advisor at the Rashtriya Bhavan Jamuna on the night of the party (July 14). At that time, the newly appointed World Bank Country Director for Bangladesh and Bhutan, Jean Pesme, accompanied him. During the discussion, Jutt spoke about his deep love for the country and his career as the World Bank Director for Bangladesh, Bhutan and Nepal from 2013 to 2015. He said, \u201cIf Bangladesh moves forward, the whole of Asia will move forward. If we continue, we will not move forward. We need to improve our international organizations and systems. We have an important economy. He further said, \u2018Most countries need young people. We have told them, I have brought your industry here. We will only give so that Bangladesh can rise to the center.\u2019 Praising the role of teacher Yunus in women empowerment, the World Bank Vice President said, \u2018We will keep you in mind. Scholarships for politics were started with the help of the World Bank, which is now being followed by other countries. We are ready to provide facilities for the youth.\u2019 Jutt mentioned that last year the World Bank provided more than $3 billion in financing and promised us similar assistance on July 3. Lutfe Siddiqui, Special Assistant to the Chief Adviser on International Relations, was present. He took the latest information about the New Mooring Container Terminal (NCT) in the city port area. He said that the new mooring container termina is handling party containers. He further said, \u2018Our plan is to make it more effective. By closing January-March 2025, we are making a big leap in net foreign direct investment (FDI), which can deliver secure intra-company and equity investments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
