Bangladesh-US inter-ministerial course ends

A five-day inter-ministerial course ended on Thursday focusing on strengthening interagency counterterrorism cooperation, effective post-crisis response capacity and institutional resiliency. Members of the US Joint Special Operations University (JSOU) based in Tampa, Florida provided the course instruction, sponsored by the US Embassy in Dhaka.

The training brought together 29 officials from a number of ministries and security organisations, including the foreign and defence ministries, Armed Forces Division, Counter-Terrorism and Transnational Crime Unit, Customs Investigation and Intelligence Directorate, Fire Service and Civil Defence and Special Branch of police, who participated in the interactive training. Integrating the various ministries seamlessly in a post-terrorism event is critical to developing an efficient crisis-response capability, as well as the resilience to recover following an emergency.
