Japanese Ambassador to Bangladesh Ito Naoki; Fatima Yasmin, secretary, Economic Relations Division (ERD), and Hayakawa Yuho, chief representative, JICA Bangladesh office, signed the documents.
Ambassador Naoki said “Japan has consistently made efforts to promote quality education in Bangladesh since the country's independence in 1971.”
