Inauguration date of Dhaka airport's third terminal not yet finalised: Aviation adviser
Sheikh Bashir Uddin, adviser to the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism, has said he is not yet sure when the third terminal of Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport will be opened.
"An agreement needs to be signed with an operator to manage the third terminal, and they will need a few months to prepare after that," he said while speaking to reporters at a press conference organised by the ministry on the occasion of World Tourism Day today (25 September).
In response to a question about whether there has been any progress in the agreement with the Japanese consortium, Secretary at the Ministry of Aviation Nasrin Jahan said, "Negotiations with them have not yet been finished."
