The Garment Industry has opened a new horizon in the expor

sector with opportunities for large scale employment for the

womenfolk of the country. It has the potential to emerge as the

foundation for industrial success and economic development.

The garment manufacturers and exporters can help expand our

apparel market abroad and attract more foreign investment in our
prospective textile sector.

I wish the BATEXPO '97 a total success.

Justice Shahabuddin Ahmed
