The government will send 1.2 million workers abroad in 2018, said expatriates' welfare and overseas employment minister Nurul Islam on Wednesday.
More skilled workers will be included among them to increase remittances this year, he said at a press conference on migration trend of 2017.
"We will give more emphasis on quality than quantity in the migration," the minister pointed out.
Mr Islam added that services for the outbound workers will be decentralised.
