He also confirmed that discussions on the long-delayed Teesta River project would be on the \u200bagenda.<\/div>\n<div>Rahman is scheduled to meet Premier Li on June 25 and President Xi Jinping on June 26.<\/div>\n<div>He will also attend \u200bthe World Economic Forum&#8217;s Annual Meeting of the New Champions, known as the Summer Davos Forum, in the northeastern Chinese city of Dalian, where global business and political leaders will discuss growth, innovation and emerging technologies.<\/div>\n<div>The Chinese leg of the tour comes as Dhaka seeks to \u200bdeepen ties with one of its largest trading partners and development financiers.<\/div>\n<div>The visit follows the government\u2019s recent approval of \u200ba 41.89 billion taka ($340 million) infrastructure project for the Chinese Economic and Industrial Zone in Chittagong, backed by 24.67 billion taka in \u200cconcessional Chinese \u2060loans.<\/div>\n<div>The project is expected to create around 100,000 jobs and attract more than $500 million in foreign direct investment during its initial phase.<\/div>\n<div>In Malaysia, discussions are expected to focus on labour migration, recruitment of Bangladeshi workers and broader economic cooperation.<\/div>\n<div>Malaysia remains one of the largest destinations for Bangladeshi migrant workers, whose remittances are a crucial source of foreign exchange for the \u200bSouth Asian nation.<\/div>\n<h2>TIES WITH INDIA \u200bHAVE IMPROVED, BUT TENSIONS \u2060PERSIST<\/h2>\n<div>The trip also has broader diplomatic significance.<\/div>\n<div>Former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, who was ousted during a mass uprising in 2024 and has since been living in India, was widely seen \u200bas closer to New Delhi, but maintained ties with both India and China while \u200bsecuring significant Chinese-backed \u2060infrastructure investments.<\/div>\n<div>While relations between Dhaka and New Delhi have improved since Rahman\u2019s government took office in February, disagreements remain, including border tensions and alleged migrant push-ins across the frontier.<\/div>\n<div>&#8220;Although ties with India have improved somewhat, tensions persist, notably over border issues. Strengthening relations \u2060with \u200bChina reflects Dhaka&#8217;s broader effort to balance its external partnerships,&#8221; said Asif \u200bShahan, a professor of development studies at the University of Dhaka.<\/div>\n<div>&#8220;The visits are as much economic as diplomatic,&#8221; he added. &#8220;China is crucial for investment, while \u200bMalaysia remains key for overseas employment \u2014 both align with the government&#8217;s economic priorities.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2566\">Japan rout Tunisia 4-0 as Ueda shines in World Cup\u2019s 1,000th match<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2564\">Jaiswal slams ton as India sweep ODI series 3-0 against Afghanistan<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2563\">Shohei Ohtani could return Saturday after welcoming second child<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bangladesh\u2019s Prime Minister Tarique Rahman will embark on his first overseas trip since taking office on Sunday, visiting Malaysia and China in a mission aimed at attracting \u200binvestment, boosting overseas employment and signalling foreign policy priorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2567,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[8],"class_list":["post-2568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-china"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
