The Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB) has moved to renew the aviation agreement signed with Vietnam to facilitate a direct air link between the two countries.
In order to renew the aviation agreement, a consultation meeting will be held soon.
The decision comes following a meeting between CAAB Chairman Air Vice Marshal M Mafidur Rahman and Vietnamese Ambassador to Bangladesh Nguyen Manh Cuong on Tuesday evening, says a press release issued by Mohammad Sohel Kamruzzaman, Deputy Director (Personnel) and also Public Relations Officer of the CAAB.
If it is possible to establish a direct air link, communication in the commercial and tourism sectors of the two countries will increase, and that will greatly contribute to their economic development.
At the end of the discussion, CAAB Chairman and Vietnamese Ambassador hoped that communication regarding civil aviation and air transport organisations between the two friendly countries would increase soon.
