State Minister for Planning Dr Shamsul Alam said  Bangladesh can become  the leading investment destination of Chinese investment. 

"Bangladesh as the No-1 country in terms of per capita income and all human development indexes in South Asia is poised for more attractive and fruitful investment, especially Chinese investment," said the state minister at the webinar on "Chinese Investment – Prospects & Challenges in Bangladesh," organised by Bangladesh China Chamber of Commerce & Industry (BCCCI) on Saturday. 

In the speech as chief guest Dr Shamsul Alam underscored the need of expanding the horizon of Chinese investment in Bangladesh, raising the present 400 companies operating in Bangladesh in comparison to 600 Japanese companies keeping in consideration of the volume and growing intensity of investment cooperation from the government and people of China. With advanced technology, human skills, congenial infrastructure and investment friendly atmosphere, he said, "Bangladesh could become the leading investment destination of Chinese investment."
