IFAWPCA is the flag-bearer of the building & construction industry in the Asia Pacific Region and it also represents our region in the CICA Board. With Asia becoming the focus of the world economy in terms of growth and new development projects we should all strive for the success of the 37th IFAWPCA Convention especially because it is being held in Bangladesh which stands in the cross-roads of South-East Asia and West Asia. Furthermore our region is encompassing three of the major Trading Blocs in the world, i.e. SAARC, ASEAN & APEC. In population terms it represents the single biggest economic bloc. An area with a huge market potential for all of us involved in the building & construction industry.
Bangladesh itself is a fast growing country and it offers many investment & business opportunities which you may explore during your stay in Dhaka. Bangladesh has a long culture of hospitality and it also offers an open investment policy encouraging foreign investment in virtually all sectors of the economy.
Once again, welcome to Dhaka. |

It is my pleasure to welcome you all, on behalf of BACI, to the 37th IFAWPCA Convention, the BACI Construction Industry Exhibition 2009, Technical Seminar Sessions, and the National and International (IFAWPCA) Awards.
As the apex body of the building and construction industry in Bangladesh, BACI is proud to be your host for the key event of 2009 for the building & construction industry.
For this important event BACI has prepared a comprehensive program of business and technical sessions along with exciting and enjoyable social and cultural activities, promising attending the convention a most unique experience for all of you. With a rich heritage of history and culture Dhaka is an interesting host city. Bangladesh being situated in the center of the Ganges Plain is home to a culture more than 2500 years old, i.e., the Ganges Civilization. Our people’s hospitality is legendary. Bangladesh also offers vast opportunities, having a population of 150 million, which you can explore in full only if you come here. BACI and the people of Bangladesh welcome you all to Dhaka for this most important construction industry event of the year 2009 of the Asia Pacific Region. |
The Destination
Bangladesh is one of the few countries in South Asia, which remains to be explored. Bangladesh is like a painter's dream come true with a rich tapestry of colors and textures. The traditional emphasis on the tourist trade has always been on the material facilities offered by a country rather than on its natural charms.
A land of unspoiled nature, rich cultural heritage and exotic beauty, Bangladesh is considered as one of the most potential countries for eco-tourism in South Asia.
The unique composition of natural beauty with varied flora and fauna of this area has perhaps few matches elsewhere.
Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh. It is the largest city and the fastest growing city as well. It is the best starting point for travels in the country. It is a pretty place with tombs and mosques to visit. Not to mention the natural sights just miles away from the city center.
