At the event, His Excellency informed the audience, “From the moment I came to Dhaka, I realized the first thing I have to do is show more of Brazil to the people of Bangladesh and of Bangladesh to Brazil. The passion of the people in this country wonderfully complements that of my country. So when this opportunity to collaborate with Dhaka Regency for a festival arose, it was music to my ears!”
“The people of Bangladesh have always associated Brazil with football,” said the Executive Director of Dhaka Regency. “However, we cannot fully appreciate the rich heritage and unique cuisine of this vibrant nation. When His Excellency and I began brainstorming about hosting a festival a few weeks ago, we could not pass this exciting opportunity to bring the Brazilian experience to our guests here in Dhaka.”
