The interim government has appointed an administrator to the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI) following the resignation of its president, Mahbubul Alam. Alam stepped down on September 9th amid pressure from business groups calling for the dissolution of the board after last month's political upheaval, which saw the Awami League government ousted on August 5th. Although Alam cited health issues in his resignation, sources close to him indicated that pressure from business circles also contributed to his decision.

Ministry of Commerce appointed Md Hafizur Rahman, a member of the Bangladesh Competition Commission, as the administrator. His task is to organize a fair election within 120 days and hand over responsibilities to the newly elected board.

Additionally, government had appointed administrators to the e-Commerce Association of Bangladesh (e-CAB) and the Chittagong Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) after leadership resignations in both organizations. Md Sayed Ali, deputy secretary of the central digital cell, was appointed to oversee e-CAB's transition, while an administrator was also put in place for CCCI following similar resignations from its leadership. Both administrators are tasked with organizing elections within 120 days.

A total of 219 garment factories in the Ashulia Industrial area were shut down due to ongoing labor unrest. Of these, 86 factories were closed indefinitely under Section 13 (1) of the Labour Act, while the remaining 133 declared a general holiday.

Md Sarwar Alam, superintendent of Ashulia Industrial Police-1, confirmed the closures. He noted that some factories remained closed due to the unrest, with production halted as workers did not return after their demands were unmet.

No reports of attacks, vandalism, or road blockades were recorded today. While some workers entered factories in the morning, they later left without starting working.

To prevent any untoward incidents, additional police, army, Rapid Action Battalion, and Border Guard Bangladesh personnel were deployed around the factories, continuing their patrols in the area.

The interim government of Bangladesh has decided to review the minimum wage for workers through the minimum wage board, following recent labor unrest. Despite the current minimum wage being implemented in December 2022, rising inflation and essential goods prices have prompted the government to consider an update. AHM Shafiquzzaman, Secretary of the Ministry of Labour and Employment, announced that tripartite consultation meetings involving the government, factory owners, and labor unions will be held to address the issue.

In addition to wage revisions, the government aims to ensure timely payment of arrears to workers and improve communication between workers and officials. The labor ministry also plans to update and reform the tripartite committee, activate labor-related complaint committees, and promptly address unrest based on daily monitoring.

Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association - BGMEA has expressed support for enforcing the "no work, no pay" policy, under Section 13(1) of the Bangladesh Labor Act, 2006, amidst ongoing workers' unrest. This clause allows factory owners to partially or fully close a branch during an "illegal" strike, with striking workers not receiving wages.

Despite recent negotiations where factory owners agreed to provide an additional Tk 225 attendance bonus and Tk 10 for tiffin, unrest persists. BGMEA Senior Vice President Abdulla Hil Rakib mentioned that local political groups have influenced the situation, leading to continued disruptions.

Rakib highlighted that although manufacturers aimed to resolve the issue through dialogue and by keeping factories open, unrest continued, and prompting factory owners to consider enforcing Section 13(1). As of now, 54 factories in Savar and Ashulia have been closed indefinitely, and 60 others have declared a general holiday.

BGMEA hopes that applying this policy will encourage negotiations between workers and factory owners. A discussion between BGMEA and local political leaders has also taken place.

Bangladesh aims to increase its merchandise and service exports by 12.74% year-on-year to $57.5 billion in the fiscal year 2024-25, according to Finance and Commerce Adviser Salehuddin Ahmed. Merchandise exports are projected to grow by 12.35% to $50 billion, while service exports are expected to rise by 15.38% to $7.5 billion. The target considers ongoing challenges such as labor unrest, flooding, and international crises.

Officials believe the target is achievable with improved logistics, energy supply, and political stability. Khandoker Rafiqul Islam, president of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association, emphasized the need for smooth operations in ports and transportation. M A Razzaque, chairman of the Research and Policy Integration for Development, called the target realistic given last year's low export growth. The government plans to address export barriers and diversify the export basket while ensuring accurate reporting of export data. Discussions are ongoing regarding restoring the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) with the U.S.

Protests have spread to Narayanganj, Savar, and Ashulia, severely impacting industries, particularly garment factories. Over 100 factories were vandalized or burned, leading to nearly 200 closures. The Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) urged the government to address the unrest and improve factory security.

Despite a slight rise in the Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) in August—agriculture up by 3.3 points, manufacturing by 13.6 points, and services by 6.2 points—the economy remains in contraction due to ongoing labor unrest and floods. MCCI estimates that nearly three weeks of protests have caused losses of around Tk 5,000 crore. Factory closures continue, with 30 more shutting down amid continued protests.

Amazon Inc. aims to help Indian exporters sell around $5 billion worth of small-ticket items globally through its platform this year, up from nearly $3 billion in 2023, according to a company official.

Launched in 2015, the Amazon Global Selling program is expected to enable nearly 150,000 small exporters across India to sell their products directly to international consumers, primarily in markets like the U.S. and the U.K. Amazon is set to help tens of thousands of Indian businesses exceed $13 billion in cumulative e-commerce exports by the end of 2024, according to a company statement.

This move highlights India's increasing significance in the global supply chain and reflects a trend among multinationals to diversify away from China. Walmart Inc also announced in 2020 plans to increase its sourcing from India to $10 billion annually by 2027, up from about $3 billion.

Both Amazon and Walmart’s Flipkart have transformed India’s retail industry in recent years by investing billions in sourcing from small businesses and attracting consumers with deep discounts. However, they face criticism from trade and political groups, with India’s commerce minister accusing e-commerce giants of predatory pricing and stressing that the rise of online platforms should not harm traditional brick-and-mortar stores.

In June 2023, Amazon announced plans to increase its investments in India to $26 billion by 2030, including funds for its cloud services. Amazon aims to facilitate $20 billion in cumulative e-commerce exports from India by 2025.

Bangladesh Bank (BB) has eased the import process for raw materials and capital machinery to boost business and ensure the availability of essential goods in the local market. The decision follows improvements in the country's foreign exchange reserves.

According to a new BB circular, banks can now determine the margin level for opening letters of credit (LCs) based on their relationships with clients. However, importers of luxury goods and import substitutes must still pay 100% upfront for LCs.

Previously, in 2022, BB required businesses to pay full or 75% advance payments for non-essential and luxury items, such as cars, electronics, and certain food products, to stabilize forex reserves. The central bank has since relaxed some of these rules to support cottage, micro, small, and medium enterprises, aiming to foster industrial growth and job creation.

After a four-day closure, apparel production resumed yesterday morning in the Ashulia and Gazipur industrial belts under tight security. However, operations in Ashulia were halted by afternoon as violence erupted, resulting in at least 37 injuries, including workers, police, and pedestrians.

Despite security presence, unidentified miscreants attacked around 100 factories in Ashulia, causing thousands of workers to flee. In a separate development, pharmaceutical manufacturers reached an agreement with agitating workers, announcing plans to resume production soon.

BGMEA President Khandoker Rafiqul Islam expressed disappointment that production could not continue due to the violence, despite efforts by security forces including the Army, Police, RAB, and BGB. Injured individuals were treated at the Ashulia Women and Children Hospital.

Workers reported being attacked by armed individuals while some tried to protect their factories. The unrest escalated as workers blocked the Nabinagar-Chandra highway, prompting the army and police to intervene. Seven policemen were injured during the clashes.

World Bank has urged India to focus on labor-intensive exports to boost employment, particularly in sectors like textiles and footwear. WB noted that India missed opportunities in labor-intensive manufacturing following China's exit, allowing countries like Bangladesh and Vietnam to gain market share in areas like apparel and leather. India's share of global apparel exports declined from 4% in 2018 to 3% in 2022.

While India has seen growth in high-tech exports like mobile phones, it has struggled with job creation and inclusive growth. The urban unemployment rate remains high at 17%. To improve, the World Bank suggested India target less advanced markets like Africa and Latin America, reduce import tariffs, and integrate into global value chains.

World Bank raised its economic growth forecast for India to 7%, up from 6.6%, largely due to government infrastructure spending. India’s total exports in fiscal 2023/24 surpassed $776 billion, while imports reached nearly $855 billion.

Chattogram Port Authority has extended the deadline for loading containers with ready-made garment (RMG) exports by 24 hours, effective from September 2024 to February 2025. Exporters can now bring garments to the port yard 24 hours before ship departure, instead of the previous 48-hour requirement. This extension was granted following a request from the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) to help exporters meet tighter deadlines as foreign buyers have reduced lead times from 120 to 60 days.

Without this change, up to 30% of shipments could be delayed, leading to financial losses. BGMEA Vice President Rakibul Alam Chowdhury noted that delays in transporting containers to the port often cause missed shipments. The new rule allows containers for day tides to be delivered by 7:30 am the next day, and by 8:00 pm for night tides, providing more flexibility for exporters.

During a courtesy call at the State Guest House Jamuna, a business delegation led by International Chamber of Commerce, Bangladesh (ICCB) President Mahbubur Rahman, discussed key concerns with the chief adviser. Yunus highlighted that the recent student-led revolution has sparked new hope in the country, and the Interim Government is dedicated to implementing critical reforms in industry, finance, and manufacturing.

Business leaders voiced concerns over recent unrest in the garment and pharmaceutical sectors, suspecting the involvement of external instigators. They urged enhanced security in industrial zones, warning that the country’s image could suffer without proper safety measures.
