The United States is "committed" to continued cooperation with Bangladesh in its efforts to improve labor rights, visiting US Assistant Secretary Donald Lu said today.
At a meeting with Bangladeshi labor leaders, Lu listened to their experiences and concerns.
Earlier in the morning, he had a breakfast meeting with Prime Minister's Private Industry and Investment Adviser Salman F Rahman.
Lu, who arrived in Dhaka on Saturday evening, directly went to the foreign minister's residence accompanied by US Ambassador to Bangladesh, Peter Haas.
He is now at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as part of his second day's engagement with Bangladesh officials.
The US senior official is visiting Bangladesh to discuss bilateral relationship, expand economic engagement, and go over the labour and human rights situation.
