Idea projektu

The city of Cox Bazar encasing the largest natural sandy beach is one of the largest tourist attractions of Bangladesh. To date, it is being one of the biggest tourist spots which receive a huge number of visitors every year and the rate is eventually increasing day by day (Tourist ministry of Bangladesh). Due to the increasing number of tourists barging in and out, it has become a necessity and a mandate to provide adequate air transport facilities in that area. In keeping with this policy, the GOB approved Cox's Bazar Special Development Project which aims to contribute to international development by attracting new tourists and investments to Cox's Bazar. The focus of the project is to contribute to the country's national promotion of the tourism industry. An essential element for the development of the corridor into an industrial/tourism center is the improvement of air transportation facilities.
