With the opening of new markets, a record number of Bangladeshi nationals went abroad with jobs so far in the outgoing calendar year.
Bangladesh sent more than 1.0 million people in the first 11 months of 2022, officials said, expecting the number to increase further in the upcoming year (2023).
Bangladesh resumed sending workers to Malaysia this year, which is considered to be a major development for this sector in the outgoing year despite the pace of outgoing manpower to the destination still remaining slower than expected.
