DHAKA, 12 August 2022, (TON): Bangladesh has suggested the World Food Programme to set up a Regional Food Bank in South Asia as a strategic reserve for the region.
Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen shared the concerns over food insecurity around the world when newly appointed Country Director of WFP Domenico Scalpelli presented his credentials to him at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
He urged the WFP to enhance its focus on the issue of nutrition as part of its various programs carried out in collaboration with the government.
Momen urged the WFP and other UN agencies operating in Myanmar’s Rakhine State to help create an environment conducive to the safe, voluntary, dignified, and sustainable repatriation of the Rohingyas, now sheltered in Bangladesh.
