Alberta-Bangladesh Relations
- Canada established diplomatic relations with Bangladesh in 1972.
- Bangladesh and Canada are both members of the Commonwealth. Bangladesh also uses the English Common Law System.
- The Alberta government has provided matching grants for humanitarian projects in Bangladesh for projects that have mainly focused on the improvement of education and school facilities. Relief funds were also provided to aid in the recovery of the 2007 cyclone.
- The Government of Bangladesh has set up export processing zones (EPZs) in Dhaka and Chittagong (the country’s major port) to attract foreign investors and offers generous tax concessions to firms that locate within these EPZs.
- Bangladesh has made progress on economic reform, which could mean more opportunities for Alberta companies.
