Bangladeshi expatriates in South Korea organized a civic reception for National Citizens Party (NCP) spokesperson Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan during his visit to the country. The event took place on Sunday at noon local time at the Khimpu Foreign Support Center in Khimpu city, arranged by the NCP Diaspora Alliance, South Korea.

In his speech, Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan expressed gratitude to the diaspora members for their hospitality and recalled their support during the July uprising when the country was under blockade.
