Eminent educationist Prof Dr Shafiq Ahmed Siddique was present as the chief guest in the programme held recently. While speaking Shafiq Ahmed suggested opening separate departments on garment industry at all universities of the country, including the Dhaka University. “Universities in the country did not take any initiative targeting the garment industry. Public or private universities are yet to open departments on the garment sector,” he added. Prof Shafiq said citizens of Sri Lanka and India work in Bangladesh’s garment sector and send their incomes to their respective countries. Referring to the need of technical education, Dr Shafiq said the government should give the highest importance to this as technically educated youth never remain unemployed.

Debate for Democracy Chairman Hasan Ahmed Chowdhury presented a keynote paper in the seminar while NDF Chairman Dr Tazul Islam Chowdhury delivered the welcome speech.
