DHAKA, Sept 16, 2023 (BSS) - South Korean Ambassador to Bangladesh Park Young-sik today said the local automobile manufacturing industry here need to be encouraged so that Bangladesh could make its own vehicle reducing dependency on importing second-hand cars. "Domestically made cars will also be good for the environment," he told reporters while visiting the Fair Technology-Hyundai factory at the Bangabandhu Hi-Tech Park in Gazipur. The envoy said Bangladesh could impose ban on importing old cars like some developing countries like Mongolia and Laos. After visiting the plant, the Ambassador said the car manufacturing plant is a unique example of how Bangladesh is preparing for its graduation from LDC group. He laid emphasis on further improvement of the investment environment with an improved taxation system to attract more investment in the country.
