Business Eye Report
Ten directors of the Chittagong Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) have collectively resigned, intensifying the ongoing unrest within the organisation. The resignations, which occurred at midnight on Sunday, follow a series of protests and growing dissatisfaction among businessmen.
CCCI President Omar Hazzaz confirmed the resignations and stated that the current board had decided to step down to prevent further disruption to services for ordinary members. He assured that the resignation letters are being submitted to the Trade Organizations Division of the Ministry of Commerce, with the entire process expected to be completed by Monday.
The decision to resign comes in the wake of the power shift in the country on August 5, which has sparked widespread discontent among the business community. The businessmen have accused the Chamber of establishing a 'family rule' and have been actively protesting and demonstrating against it. This mass resignation is a continuation of earlier moves by the Chamber's leadership. On August 28, Senior Vice President Torofdar Ruhul Amin and Director Zahirul Islam Chowdhury had already stepped down.
