Bangladesh will be poverty-free by 2030: FM AHM Mustafa Kamal
Dhaka: Bangladesh Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal on Sunday said the country is going to be poverty-free by 2030.
"We firmly believe that we'll achieve double digit growth within the next five years," he was quoted as saying by Prothom Alo.
