Bangladesh and Libya have shown interest in signing a memorandum of understanding on sending Bangladeshi workers to the North African country.
Besides, both countries have stressed the necessity for ensuring safe and orderly migration, tackling human trafficking and discouraging irregular migration.
The issues were discussed during a courtesy call between Bangladesh’s Expatriates’ Welfare Minister Imran Ahmad and Libyan Chargé d’affaires in Bangladesh Rahoumh MR Yahy at the Prabashi Kalyan Bhaban in Dhaka today, said a press release of the Bangladeshi ministry.
At the meeting, the Libyan diplomat thanked Bangladesh for its recent move to withdraw embargo on sending workers to the North African country.
