Expressing hope that Bangladesh would move ahead by using its efficient manpower, US Ambassador Dan W Mozena has said the real power of the country was its people.
He made the remarks while addressing the eighth national convention on disability in Bogra district in the afternoon.
While addressing the programme, the US envoy emphasised on ensuring balanced diet for the mothers for the sake of the children health.
He said: “Bangladesh will move forward by using the power of its people. But, first they have to ensure the birth of sound and healthy children.
So, a mother should have to be given balance dite,” he added.
More than 600 participants with disabilities have attended the programme. Earlier, Mozena had a meeting with the officials of the district administration in the circuit house in the morning.
