The Bangladesh Plastic Goods Manufacturers and Exporters Association has placed five proposals to address the energy crisis.
The proposals were placed by the association鈥檚 president Shamim Ahmed at a press conference held at the BPGMEA office in the capital鈥檚 Paltan area on Sunday.
The proposals are to invest more in digging new wells and taking practical steps.
Besides, hailing the government鈥檚 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 the neighbouring country.
Apart from these, the association demanded with drawing duty and tax for importing LNG, building new LNG terminal, keeping the tariff of gas unchanged for the sake of country鈥檚 industrialisation and attracting more investment and thus taking practical steps after holding thorough discussions with the concerned stakeholders.
