EC Launches Revamped Website
Press Release
Dhaka, 21st October, 2003
The website of the Delegation of the European Commission to
Bangladesh has been given a new look. To mark the occasion, a launching ceremony
was organized by the Delegation at Hotel Sarina, Plot # 7, Road # 17, Banani C.A,
Dhaka, on October 21.
The revamping of the website has been done to maintain
consistency, in terms of look and contents, with websites of Delegation around
the world and the European Commission's "Europa" website.
H.E. Mr. Esko Kentrschynskyj, Ambassador and Head of
Delegation of the European Commission to Bangladesh while addressing the guests
said, "I am confident that the website will soon become a popular tool,
primarily amongst journalists, students, but hopefully also the general public,
to get to know more about the European Union and the Delegation of the European
Commission to Bangladesh."
There are indeed now clear links to EU institutions from the
Delegation's website. The new website is now more informative for the web
visitors around the world, increasing awareness about EU activities in
Bangladesh as well as about EU in general.
"With links to Europe, the European Commission website, you
will have a mine of information on trade, development, human rights, or any
other subject where European Commission is actively involved," Ambassador
Kentrschynskyj said.
Other diplomats and staff of the Delegation of the European
Commission were present at the event.
Journalists from all major dailies published from Dhaka were
present at the occasion. Also present were representatives from the Embassies/
High Commission of different Member State countries in Bangladesh.
