MESSAGE

Bangladesh is emerging as one of the fastest growing countries of the world with great possibilities for global leadership in the spheres of knowledge, science and technology. Commonwealth Scholars and Fellows are intellectually the most privileged citizens in the society and thus have to shoulder a greater share of responsibility for the formulation and dissemination of ideas, knowledge and values for the creation of a logical and equitable society. In the contemporary world it is difficult to live in isolation and networking is the solution to economic prosperity and cultural integrity. Through BACSAF platform Commonwealth Alumni will have the scope to share their ideas and values. Since the last two years the members of the working group have worked hard and shared rigorously among them how to make the BACSAF journey more smooth and elegant. I wish to express my sincere thanks to all of them. Special thanks to CSC and British Council Dhaka office for their constant supports to make BASCAF efforts up-to this level. Now it is the time to work together to make BACSAF activities more vibrant and visible. I hope all members will come-forward to make BASAF more effective.
