Star Consortium Bangladesh, a combination leading 17 largest business groups in the country, will work as the local partner of KISC in this mega initiative.

Under the project, it said, a coal fired power plant, transfer platform in deep sea and private jetty, device and machine manufacture, logistics and distributions, cement and building materials and steel structure fabrication will be developed. Enditem
