Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Wednesday (Sep 5) inaugurated Bangladesh Biman’s first ever Dreamliner, a state-of-the art aircraft of US-based multinational Boeing company.

“I want you to work with utmost sincerity so that the organisation (Biman) doesn’t earn any bad name and Bangladesh’s reputation remains upheld,” the premier told the commissioning ceremony held at the VVIP Terminal of Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, local media reports said.

Sheikh Hasina asked the Biman staff to particularly give proper attention so the foreign, local passengers and expatriates Bangladeshis could quickly complete their immigration formalities and get luggage.
