Water Resources and Environment Advisor Syeda Rizwana Hasan said on Wednesday that China is committed to sharing expertise in water management, building a smart water conservancy system, and enhancing data sharing during floods. 

"To further strengthen ties, the formation of a Joint Committee and cooperation between Bangladeshi and Chinese water research institutions was recommended," Syeda Rizwana Hasan said following a courtesy meeting with Yao Wen, the Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh at her secretariat office. She also said China proposed to provide training in water conservancy and promote technical collaboration between the two countries.

The meeting took place at the Bangladesh Secretariat, where discussions focused on enhancing collaboration between the two nations in water management and environmental sustainability. 

"These efforts would boost collaboration on river management, flood prevention, and infrastructure projects, benefiting both countries," the advisor said.

She emphasized the importance of international partnerships in achieving long-term goals for environmental protection and resilience to climate change. 

During the meeting, the Chinese Ambassador reaffirmed China's commitment to Bangladesh, stating that China is a true friend and that the relationship will continue to flourish. 

He expressed interest in collaborating on river pollution control, ecological management, solar energy, electric vehicles, water resources management, capacity building, flood control systems, smart water management, and the sharing of hydrological data. He noted that Bangladesh could enhance its prosperity by fully utilizing its rivers.

The meeting concluded with both parties expressing optimism about deepening bilateral relations and exploring future cooperation in environmental sustainability and water resource management.
