What happened in Dhaka
Last week, a serious plane crash occurred in Dhaka, in which many passengers were injured and some lost their lives. This incident caused concern and grief not only in Bangladesh but throughout South Asia. In such a time, medical teams from India, China, and Singapore responded immediately and arrived in Bangladesh to assist in the treatment of the injured.
Yunus Expressed 'Heartfelt Thanks'
Mohammad Yunus met with medical representatives from India, China, and Singapore in a special meeting. During this meeting, he said that these medical teams came not just with their skills, but from the heart. He emphasized that doctors are not just professionals, but they are the greatest servants of humanity.
Appreciation of the Prompt Service of Health Professionals
Yunus said that the prompt response and service of the medical professionals helped Bangladesh during the crisis. These doctors and nurses worked day and night to serve the injured and proved that medical service transcends borders.
Important Discussion with the Delegation
Four medical professionals from India, ten from Singapore, and eight from China participated in the meeting on Sunday. Welcoming everyone, Yunus said that such events teach us how much cooperation and humanitarian values are needed in times of disaster. He described the meeting as the foundation for future partnerships.
Expressed Desire for Long-Term Relations
Professor Yunus urged that the cooperation received during this crisis should not be limited to just one incident.

Global Cooperation Necessary for Public Health
