Bangladesh and Japan have completed a second round of high-level discussions on the operation and maintenance of the third terminal at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport. The meeting, held on Friday at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, focused on Japan’s revised proposal covering key issues such as embarkation fees, upfront payments, and revenue sharing. The session signaled renewed momentum toward finalizing a long-delayed agreement.
Foreign Minister Dr. Khalilur Rahman, Civil Aviation and Tourism Minister Afroza Khanom Rita, State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shama Obaid Islam, and other senior officials attended the meeting. The Japanese delegation was led by Rieko Nakayama, Vice President of Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. Afroza Khanom emphasized that Bangladesh’s goal is to protect national interests while expediting the terminal’s launch. State Minister M. Rashiduzzaman Millat urged Japan to reconsider Bangladesh’s proposals and submit a further revised version.
The meeting followed an earlier round held on March 13 and reflected both sides’ intent to operationalize the nearly completed terminal through continued high-level engagement.
