 Remembering the Sacrifices of 1971

Bangladesh’s Independence Day is a tribute to the brave martyrs of the 1971 Liberation War, whose sacrifices paved the way for a sovereign nation. In his Independence Day message, President Mohammed Shahabuddin honored their legacy while calling for unity in building a prosperous, inclusive, and discrimination-free Bangladesh.  

His vision aligns with Bhutan’s philosophy of Gross National Happiness (GNH), which prioritizes holistic well-being, justice, and environmental harmony. Both nations believe in progress with purpose, ensuring that development benefits all citizens.

✅ Trade & Connectivity – Enhancing cross-border economic opportunities  
✅ Climate Action– Advocating for sustainable development in South Asia  
✅ Cultural Exchange – Strengthening people-to-people ties through arts, education, and tourism  

Bangladesh’s impressive growth under Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s leadership—particularly in digital innovation, women’s empowerment, and poverty reduction—serves as an inspiration. Bhutan applauds these achievements and looks forward to deeper collaboration.
