Since the present government is following a strict policy to ensure safe migration, some 11 lakh Bangladeshi workers would go abroad with employment by the end of this year as the overseas job sector is witnessing a boom.
“The overseas job markets are witnessing a boom and 9,90,728 Bangladeshi workers have already gone abroad till December 21 this year,” Expatriates Welfare and Overseas Employment Minister Nurul Islam told on Sunday.
He said the government expects a substantial growth in manpower export in the coming year due to various realistic initiatives taken by the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
“We are very much cautious about human trafficking as the government is working on it. We are providing foreign language training to our overseas job seekers at the training centres across the country,” Islam added.
He said the government has undertaken a special programme for rehabilitation of the expatriate workers who have returned home. Besides, several developed countries expressed their keen interest in taking skilled and semi-skilled workers from Bangladesh through legal channels.
