My aim is to bring changes for the betterment of the immigrant communities from Bangladesh and it's neighboring countries. Under my leadership, NEBAF is to increase its focus on outreach activities with the local government and private organizations. We will identify needs, bridge any gaps, and expedite solutions.
As NEBAF is growing and expanding, I'd like to initiate more projects on an international level. We hope to co-operate and co-ordinate with our friends in India, Nepal, and other neighboring countries. And build a culture of trust and confidence among ourselves.
With the approval of the chairperson, ED will call meetings of the foundation. He/ she will prepare and keep preceeding of meetings, preserve files, documnets, letters etc of the foundation in custody and assist the chairperson in executing his/ her organizational duties.
