Bangladesh has opened up its doors for the Rohingya when other countries did not, ICT Affairs Adviser to the Prime Minister Sajeeb Wazed Joy has said. “When rich countries are not standing by the side of the people of their neighbouring country, we, despite being a small one, have opened up our doors. Joy’s remarks came when he was addressing the award giving ceremony of Joy Bangla Youth Award 2017 at the Sheikh Hasina National Youth Complex in Savar, on the outskirts of Dhaka, on Saturday. We have found those youths who are working for the country.”“Young Bangla has made the country’s youths more confident and encouraged them to work for the country’s development. Thirty organisations from across the country have won the Joy Bangla Youth Award 2017, for their outstanding contributions to promoting youth employability, ending violence against women and promoting education.
