Bashundhara Group, one of the biggest conglomerates in the country has taken a giant step by taking several mega projects in the port city of Chittagong which will create around 40,000 jobs. This is a message the country expects much from corporate bodies. This group of industries remains unparallel in terms of doing welfare of the countrymen and providing people with quality goods and services. Creation of employment is an issue of vital importance, especially in eradicating the widespread unemployment problem of Bangladesh.
The country has a significant majority of young people in respect to its population of other age groups. And there are ample opportunities for investors at home and abroad to invest in new businesses and take the advantage of the country’s geographic dividend for their benefit. Also, this is how the young talents can be properly utilised. And initiatives in this regard will surely lead businessmen towards successes and help the country’s economy prosper fast.
However, it is disconcerting to note that corporate bodies have not been providing the impetus adequately to flourishing of the talents of our educated graduates by creating job opportunities in adequate numbers. Thus, the initiative of Bashundhara Group is noteworthy and deserves great applause.
In fact, much depend on whether the younger population will be utilised properly in the development of the country. Utilisation of the youth force can help bring forth the country’s fast and sustainable success in socio-economic development. And, on the other hand, an inadequate initiative to employ them in suitable jobs is very likely to turn them into the burden of the country.
Bashundhara Group has been attaining business gains through employing people and thereby developing the human resources of the country. Several lakh people and their families depend for their livelihoods on this group of industries. The employees are contributing to the development of their own families through serving in the corporate entity and thereby contributing to the development of the group as well as the country’s economy. We wish Bashundhara success for the progress of the country!
