Bangladesh education market profile

Bangladesh has a democratic form of government and the Prime Minister is the executive head of the country.

The 1990s  witnessed a dramatic change in the economic structure and profile of the country.

There has been a major shift in economic policy and management, away from the state-led, socialist ideology of the past towards the creation of a more liberal, market economy.
