“Business Organisations Can Contribute Significantly in Shaping the National Security Environment” – Inspector General, Bangladesh Police

Wednesday evening marked the closing ceremony of the Security Management Stage 1 (Core Skills) Course in the Bangladesh capital, Dhaka. Twenty delegates from seven different countries were presented with their certificates by guest of honour, Nur Mohammad, the Inspector General of the Bangladesh Police.

Inspector General Nur Mohammad congratulated the course participants on their achievements and stressed the importance that corporate security plays in shaping the national security environments of countries like Bangladesh. Importantly, the Inspector General noted that this was a two-way process and that security can only be achieved by responsibilities being shared. “The Bangladesh Police is highly committed towards maintaining a secured environment for all, especially the business sector,” remarked Inspector General Nur Mohammad.

The certificates were presented in the presence of an audience of invited guests including business leaders of multinational companies and the Deputy High Commissioner of the British High Commission.
