Kuwait will recruit more human resources, including skilled workers, from Bangladesh in its effort to boost ties with the South Asian country, the outgoing Ambassador of the Gulf nation said today.

Kuwait Ambassador in Dhaka Faisal Mutlaq Aladwani made the comments when he paid his farewell call on Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus at the State Guest House Jamuna in Dhaka.

During the meeting, Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus praised the Kuwait envoy, saying he was a "wonderful friend of Bangladesh" and hoped that he would continue to play this role in the coming days too.

Prof Yunus said Bangladesh hopes to build up "a closer relationship with Kuwait".

The outgoing Kuwait envoy said more than 300,000 Bangladeshis are working in the Gulf emirate and his country is keen to recruit more Bangladeshis.
"We want to recruit more doctors, nurses and engineers," he said, adding more than 5,000 Bangladeshi troops were also serving in Kuwait.

Collaboration on economic engagement, defence, the Rohingya crisis, Palestinian issue and energy cooperation were highlighted during the meeting.

The Chief Adviser thanked Kuwait for its support to the Rohingya humanitarian responses.

He also sought greater cooperation between Bangladesh and Kuwait in energy and investment sectors.
