The Chinese envoy says the agreement would ease the way for Bangladeshi exports and reduce the trade deficit between the countries
Bangladesh Meat Traders Association Secretary General Rabiul Alam had threatened the strike at the Dhaka Reporters Unity in Shegun Bagicha on Sunday.
If these problems are not solved within the next 15 days, the traders will call a strike from the first of Ramadan, he had said.
But little has changed in the months since, claimed Rabiul earlier in the day. The price of meat could be controlled if the practice of bribery was put to an end , he said.
The problem could be reduced by as much as 50 percent if the City Corporation took the necessary steps and the Dhaka South City Corporation set up a permanent market for livestock, he added.
“But none of these steps have been taken,” he said.
