Dhaka prepares to send more skilled workers to Saudi Arabia under employment scheme

DHAKA: Bangladesh is laying the groundwork to send more skilled workers to Saudi Arabia, an official told Arab News, as migrant workers from the South Asian nation said the Kingdom’s Skill Verification Program was helpful for their career prospects.
