PM returns home from Bangkok today

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will return home from Bangkok Monday (April 29) wrapping up her six-day official visit to Thailand.

PM's Press Wing sources said, "Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is scheduled to depart Bangkok this morning (local time)."

Sheikh Hasina arrived here on April 24 afternoon on a both bilateral and multilateral visit on the invitation of her Thai counterpart Srettha Thavisin to strengthen the bilateral relations between the two countries.

On her arrival, a red carpet was rolled out to accord warm reception to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, where she was also given a guard of honour. A 19-round gun-fire at the Don Mueang International Airport here to herald her arrival at Bangkok.

Sheikh Hasina described this visit is part of broader focus on the "neighbourhood" policy, as it has provided an excellent opportunity for the two countries to further renew the momentum in the bilateral relations.
