DHAKA, Jan 12, 2025 (BSS) - The Bangladesh Plastic Goods Manufacturers and
Exporters Association (BPGMEA) has placed five proposals to address the
energy crisis.

The proposals were placed by the association's president Shamim Ahmed at a
press conference held at the BPGMEA office in the capital's Paltan area
today.

The proposals are to invest more in digging new wells and taking practical
steps.

Besides, hailing the government's proposal to dig 150 wells, the association
said that these wells should be explored in a speedy manner.

The BPGMEA also urged the interim government to take initiative for importing
gas from Myanmar through striking an agreement with this neighboring country.

Apart from these, the association demanded for withdrawing duty and tax for
importing LNG, building new LNG terminal, keeping the tariff of gas unchanged
for the sake of country's industrialization and attracting more investment
and thus taking practical steps after holding thorough discussions with the
concerned stakeholders.
