Commerce Adviser Sk Bashir Uddin on Sunday called on Maldivian entrepreneurs to increase investment in Bangladesh, particularly in the country’s growing construction materials sector. Highlighting Bangladesh’s capacity to produce high-quality plywood, pipes, tiles, and glass, he said these products could support Maldives’ infrastructure development.
