Promoting tourism
A few days ago I went to the Chittagong Hill Tracts. The environment and the people of the hilly areas attracted me. Our neighbour India is branding their country as Incredible India to promote their tourism. But we have not seen any worthwhile initiative from our government in this respect. With the cricket world cup knocking at the door, it is high time for us to brand our country as something special to the visitors to promote our tourism. If we want to do so we should develop our infrastructure in the first place. As security is always an issue for the tourists, we have to make sure that no awkward incidents occur. It is a great pride for us that we will host the world cup matches and we need to make the best use of this opportunity for the greater interest of our economy.
