We have taken various initiatives in the past to raise awareness about fake/Counterfeit products in the market, this time we are pleased to associate with Sadat to delve deeper. We are sure that he will be a great goodwill ambassador for Casio in Bangladesh and help in educating students to use original/ authentic products."

Besides, I have been using Casio since the beginning of my studies. I have an emotional attachment to the brand, and today I am so happy to be working with them to raise awareness of widespread use of counterfeit/fake calculators in Bangladesh. My goal has always been to support youth of the country and using fake products not only hampers their productivity but also contribute to their educational losses.
