Bangladeshi expatriates can help strengthen the cultural relationship between the Maldives and Bangladesh, Vice President Dr Mohamed Waheed Hassan said at a forum organised by the Bangladesh High Commission to the Maldives.
Dr Waheed said historically the Maldives had focused on Bangladesh’s economic input to the Maldives, “but should appreciate the cultural and human dimensions of Bangladesh’s rich culture.”
He noted that Bangladesh had one of the world’s most advanced civil society movements, from which the Maldives could benefit.
The forum marks the beginning of a cultural exchange programme between the two countries.
