Government Plans New Export Processing and Economic Zones in Five Districts
The government is set to establish new Export Processing Zones (EPZs) in two districts to boost industrial growth and attract investment. Additionally, plans are underway to develop Economic Zones (EZs) in three other districts, aiming to foster broader economic activity and job creation across the nation. These initiatives are part of a strategic focus on expanding industrial infrastructure.

The government has announced its intention to establish new Export Processing Zones (EPZs) in two specific districts. These zones are typically developed to attract foreign and local investment, facilitate export-oriented industries, and enhance economic activity by providing dedicated infrastructure and regulatory support.
In a related development, the government is also poised to create Economic Zones (EZs) across three different districts. Economic Zones generally have a broader scope than EPZs, often designed to promote integrated industrial, commercial, and sometimes residential development, with the goal of stimulating overall regional economic growth and generating employment opportunities.
Further details regarding the exact locations of these districts, project timelines, or specific industries targeted for these zones were not immediately available.
According to Prothom Alo English, these strategic projects underscore the government's commitment to expanding the country's industrial base and driving economic progress.
