State Minister of Shipping Khalid Mahmud Chowdhury said, Bangladesh is now at the turning point.  There are many youth in the country.  The country is moving forward under the leadership of Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina.  The Prime Minister gave the 8th Five Year Plan, Vision Plan 2008-21;  More than 95 percent of which have progressed.  Prime Minister has given Second Vision Plan 2041.  The touch of development is felt everywhere under his leadership.  Human rights are established.  Fundamental rights have been established.  Under his leadership there was a change in the overall affairs.

 The Minister of State said these things in his speech as the chief guest at the event organized jointly by Bangladesh Freight Forwarders Association (BAFA) and USAID at Radisson Blu Hotel in Chattogram on Sunday.  The meeting was presided over by BAFFA President Dr. Kabir Ahmed.  Chattogram Port Chairman Rear Admiral M Shahjahan spoke on the occasion.

 The event was organized on the occasion of the pre-launching of the Diploma Course in Logistics Sector conducted by USAID and BAFFA.

 State Minister Khalid said, we need skilled population.  The country's potential was killed by the assassination of Bangabandhu on 15th August. After 1975, no skilled manpower was developed in any sector, it was concerned to retain power.  Deprivation of freedom of speech, loss of dignity, division, creation of looter class was their aim.  Then the standard status was taken away from the state.

 He said, it is a fact that Bangladesh has progressed.  Chattogram port has now become a place of regional connectivity not only of the country.  The Prime Minister is doing the planned development of the country.  Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina is ensuring human rights.  We are at the turning point of Bangladesh.  Our target is to make Bangladesh golden bangla.  We have a lot of young manpower.

 He said, BAFFA is working silently with the backbone of our economy.  He wished the new course success. The private sector is playing a key role in the economy.  With the combined efforts of all, under the dynamic leadership of national treasure Sheikh Hasina, we will build the golden Bangla of Bangabandhu's dream.
