What happened to Dhaka Metro Project ? I heard JICA wanted to invest
Dhaka MRT delayed by lack of skilled labour
21 February 2014
Construction work on the Dhaka Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) 6 has been delayed due to lack of necessary Bangladeshi engineers, said Takao Toda, chief representative of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
The Japanese government, through JICA, will provide BDT 166bn (USD 2.16bn) of the total project cost of BDT 220bn (USD 2.5bn) as loan at a 0.01 per cent interest rate. The rest will be managed by the Bangladesh government.
