ব্যবসায়িক ভিসা দেবে আরব আমিরাত

নিট ব্যবসায়ীদের সংগঠন বাংলাদেশ নিটওয়্যার ম্যানুফ্যাকচারার্স অ্যান্ড এক্সপোর্টার্স অ্যাসোসিয়েশন (বিকেএমইএ) এ তথ্য জানিয়েছে।
রোববার সংযুক্ত আরব আমিরাতের রাষ্ট্রদূত ড. সায়ীদ বিন হাজার আল শাহীর সঙ্গে সৌজন্য সাক্ষাৎ করে বিকেএমইএ। ঢাকায় অবস্থিত সংযুক্ত আরব আমিরাতের দূতাবাসে এ সাক্ষাৎ অনুষ্ঠিত হয়।

আমিরাতের রাষ্ট্রদূত বিকেএমইএর সভাপতিকে আশ্বস্ত করে বলেন, সংযুক্ত আরব আমিরাতের সঙ্গে ব্যবসায়িক সম্পর্ক স্থাপনের জন্য যেসব ব্যবসায়ীরা বিকেএমইএর সুপারিশ নিয়ে আবেদন জানাবে তাদের ব্যবসায়িক ভিসা দেয়া হবে।
বিকেএমইএ জানায়, এছাড়া যৌথ বিনিয়োগের মাধ্যমে দ্বিপাক্ষিক বাণিজ্যিক সহযোগিতার আশ্বাস দেন রাষ্ট্রদূত। তিনি বিকেএমইএর প্রতিনিধি দলকে আমিরাতে ব্যবসা সম্প্রসারণের প্রয়োজনীয় সহযোগিতার প্রতিশ্রুতি দেন। তবে যৌথ উদ্যোগে ব্যবসায়িক সম্পর্ক স্থাপনের জন্য তিনি বিকেএমইএর সভাপতিকে আগামী ১ জুনের মধ্য ব্যবসায়িক প্রস্তাবনা দেয়ার পরামর্শ দেন।

Bangladesh to tighten background check on UAE jobseekers

The Bangladeshi government will tighten background checks on its citizens coming to the UAE for employment, a top diplomat has told Khaleej Times.

"As part of the ongoing discussions with the UAE authorities, we have agreed to tighten security and background checks on migrant workers coming to the UAE," Muhammad Imran, Bangladeshi ambassador to the UAE, told Khaleej Times.

The move is part of the South Asian country's efforts to curb crime rates, and ease work visa restrictions on its citizens wanting to take up jobs in the emirate.

"There are some security concerns about an increase in the number of crimes committed by Bangladeshis in the UAE. We have assured the UAE government that steps will be taken to curb the problem," said the envoy.

The South Asian country's minister of expatriates' welfare and overseas employment, Nurul Islam, met with Saqr Ghobash, UAE Minister of Human Resources and Emiratisation, in Abu Dhabi on May 16.

"We are hopeful the work visa will soon be normalised, and more Bangladeshis will be able to come (to the UAE). There has been really positive outcomes from the meetings between officials of both the countries," he added.

An estimated 700,000 to 800,000 Bangladeshi expats are working in the UAE, both in the skilled and unskilled sector. As per the embassy documents, between 700 to 800 Bangladeshis are currently serving prison terms in the UAE.

The envoy said his government already has a three-tier security check on all migrant workers, but the system will be further strengthened.

"In 2014, the UAE and Bangladesh signed two agreements on security cooperation, that included a prisoner exchange programme."

In 2015, UAE also opened a visa centre in Dhaka to facilitate easy visa procedures. "The centre is functional. But we hope it will operate in full swing once more recruitments to the UAE take place," said the envoy.

He said Bangladesh has also opened 70 training centres across the country to equip migrant workers with needed skills.

"We are offering job-specific tailor-made training programmes, and also free cultural training to workers."

The ambassador said a team of technical experts from the UAE had visited the training centres in October 2016, and "was happy with our efforts".

"Another meeting between Bangladeshi officials and Saqr Gobash on the sidelines of the GFMD (Global Forum for Migration and Development) in December 2016 has further strengthened the ties, and we are hopeful something good will soon come out of it."

Bangladeshi government has also raised the concern of some of its citizens not being able to change jobs due to visa restrictions, and thus being exploited by their current employers.

"UAE is implementing a lot of progressive labour reforms and we hope it will take into account the plight of many of these workers," said the envoy.
