The Prime Minister's Adviser on Private Industries and Investment Salman F Rahman today said two deep sea ports will be established in Chattogram's Matarbari and Patuakhali's Payra within three to four years.
"The ports will be a game-changer for trading," said Salman at 33rd conference of the Confederation of Asia-Pacific Chambers of Commerce and Industry (CACCI) in a city hotel.
"Not having deep sea ports is a big challenge for us as we are currently doing export-import business using ports of Singapore and Colombo," Salman added.
