Okay, so, I was just browsing through some trade news, as one does, when I stumbled upon this interesting bit about the BGMEA – you know, the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association. Apparently, the board got dissolved. Yeah, you heard that right, the whole board!

So, I dug a little deeper. Turns out, it wasn’t some random decision. It was the Commerce Ministry that made the call. They issued a circular on October 20th, citing some Section 17 of the Trade Organizations Act of 2022. Sounds all official and serious, huh?
I started connecting the dots. This wasn’t an isolated incident. It seems like this interim government has been shaking things up, dissolving boards of several trade organizations after a change in power. This time, it was the BGMEA’s turn.
- I read through a few articles to get the full picture.
- The government, or more precisely, the Ministry of Commerce, just up and dissolved the BGMEA board.
- They pointed to this circular they issued, under Section 17 of the Trade Organizations Act, 2022.
The circular, apparently, gave them the power to do this. No more board of directors for the BGMEA, at least for now. They also appointed an administrator, which I guess is standard procedure in these situations. Names like Anwar Hossain and the Export Promotion Bureau were floating around as tags, but it is unclear.
It’s kind of a big deal, you know? The BGMEA is a major player in the garment industry, and this move by the government definitely sent some ripples. I can only imagine the discussions happening behind closed doors. This is gonna be an interesting story to follow, that’s for sure.
I’ll try to keep my eyes and ears open for any updates on this. This kind of stuff doesn’t happen every day, and it’s always fascinating to see how these things unfold.

So, there you have it!
That’s my little adventure into the world of trade regulations and government actions. Who knew it could be so interesting, right? Anyway, I just felt like sharing this little discovery. Maybe you guys find it as intriguing as I did.
