Dhaka (UNB) - Bangladesh is set to export raw rubbers to Russia, adding a new item to its export basket. State Minister for Environment and Forest Minister HN Ashiqur Rahman will formally inaugurate the rubber export at the container yard of Kamalapur Railway Station today (Thursday). Apart from Russia, some other countries have also shown interest to import raw rubbers from Bangladesh, produced in the gardens of Bangladesh Forest Industries Development Corporation (BFIDC). As the prospect of rubber export burns bright, BFIDC has submitted a project, 'Third Rubber Development Project', to the government to boost rubber output. It's expected that the implementation of the project would facilitate the establishment of rubber-based industries in the country. |
