Mentioning Bangladesh as the fourth highest paddy-producing country as well as fifth top vegetable-producing nation in the world, Momen said Spain can utilize Bangladeshi agri-labourers in the post-Covid-19 era. He also urged his Spanish counterpart to import shrimp, ship, jute-products, medicines, personal protective equipment (PPE) and other goods from Bangladesh. Spain has the scope to invest in developing railway connections in Bangladesh, said Dr Momen. He also urged Spain to cooperate with Bangladesh so that countries in the world do not cancel their orders in Bangladesh’s RMG sector. Terming Bangladesh an investment-friendly country, Dr Momen said Spanish companies will be much more benefited by investing in economic zones here in Bangladesh.
