Set up chemical zone: FBCCI
 
Leaders of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI) have urged the government to set up a separate chemical zone as per its earlier decision to facilitate chemical business.

They also called for steps to ease the process of issuance and renewal of licences of chemical business.

They sought necessary cooperation from the government in boosting this sector.

They also focused on increasing productivity in the industries and all other workplaces.

Director in-charge of the committee Md Nizam Uddin presented the detailed future plan of the committee.

He outlined plans for solving the existing problems in the chemical sector after approval from the FBCCI board.

Chairman of the standing committee Mohammad Ullah Palash presided over the meeting.
