RT Bangladesh
Charters the Third Table in Dhaka
By SAURABH KEDIA, ASPA Chairman 2022-2023
ROUND TABLE BANGLADESH is the youngest active member in the ASPA region and they have been at the forefront of community services since the inception. I was the extension convener for RT Nepal when we started the ground work to start tabling in Bangladesh and I’m very proud to see the movement going from strength to strength.
RT Bangladesh have some trade mark community services projects including assisting the local police with signage, providing blankets for the needy during winter, conducting food banks, awareness campaigns on road safety. Dhaka RT 1 being the first club on RT Bangladesh spear headed most of the community services projects then ably assisted by the Dhaka metro RT 2.
Inauguration Ceremony Dhaka Jewel Round Table, 3rd Table in RT Bangladesh took place on 20th November and members of the RTI Board joined the event in zoom to provide their well wishes. This in deed is a proud movement for the sponsor table Dhaka metro RT 2 as well as the whole RT Bangladesh fraternity.
While RT Bangladesh was known for carrying on great efforts with their community services projects, they thrive at organizing fellowship events as well. They were the proud hosts of the RTI Asia Pacific meeting (ASPA Meeting) in June this year which was well represented by tablers, families and members of the side by side associations. Further being in line with the Round Table International’s theme in 2021/22 which was Stronger Together, Ladies Circle Bangladesh became a strong part in the RT movement in the country. I’m hopeful that RT Bangladesh will become a Full member of RTI very soon and keep reaching to greater heights.
Yours in International Tabling
