Brigadier General M Sakhawat Hossain announced the acquisition of three ocean vessels for the Bangladesh Shipping Corporation during his visit to KSRM Ship-breaking Yard in Sitakunda. The retired military officer serves as Shipping Advisor and outlined plans to enhance BSC revenue through expanded fleet capacity. His inspection focused on ship recycling operations at the facility.

Chattogram hosts fourteen ship-breaking yards that have earned Green Shipyard Certification under Hong Kong Convention standards for safe vessel recycling. Additional facilities continue working toward certification approval. Yards failing to meet environmental and safety requirements face permanent closure according to government policy.

International regulation compliance remains challenging for many operations within the industry. The advisor promised comprehensive government assistance to help facilities achieve proper standards. Support measures aim to improve overall sector performance while maintaining environmental protection.
