Peace Corps


"Peace Corps" is an organisation lead by the US. It is a humanitarian organisation. Its agents visit Bangladesh three times a year. Its first mission in Dhaka was way back in 1961, then the second one was in 1998, and the last in 2004. My idea is vague about the first mission. But in 1998, it was not approved by our government. Now 64 agents are working in different parts of Bangladesh. They are engaged in teaching English under the auspices of the Ministry of Youth and Sports . I am a student of it.

I urge the "Peace Corps" authorities to let us know about their full operation in Bangladesh through written articles or brochures, so that people are not misled by false assumptions about the agency.
