1. ROOTRELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BANGLADESH AND SOMAIIA
Many people are unawareof the historical relationship between Bangladesh and
Somalia, here we havea long history of Bangladesh and Somalia.
Somalia is one of the countries that went to the peacebuilding and reconcile of
this two-brotherhood country Bangladesh and Pakistan in early 1971. Atthe time,
Sheikh Mujahid Rahman ordered that all Somalis people could enter the country
without a visa and some historicalsaid on arrival.
Bangladesh and Somalia are both members of the Organization Islamic
Cooperation (OIC). Somalia joined in 1969 and Bangladesh joined in 1974.
2020, hosted by Bangladesh, Somalia has been a part and a major representative.

Somali student inBangladesh
since 2010 Somalistudents they come day by day in Bangladesh for self-financial
study,
Itwas not easy, coming to Bangladesh on a studentvisa. At the time, there was
no Bangladeshi High Commission in SOAMLIA —Studenthad to go get a visa
Somali embassy In NairobiKenya. When you quizzed as to why they decided on
Bangladesh, Example for me l says, "Itis cost-effectiveto study here as you get
good quality education while tuition fees and living costs in Dhaka are affordable.
This is why many Somalia and other African students come here to study."
For me l came to know of DIUthrough a Somali friend who already studied there
and who helped me through the application process. Much like Bangladeshi
students abroad who help out others apply to their universities in countries in
Europe and North America, African students use their networks to apply to
universities in Bangladesh, such as 2 DIU, Daffodiland Dhaka, Islamic University of
Technology and the University of Information Technology and Sciences, NSU.
Somali students are increasingly drawn to private universities over public ones
nowadays—according to the latest data available from my University Dhaka

Behalf of my blood Somali student, we do not find any stress and constant
requests for photos or selfies in the street, intrusiveor offensive. "Bangladeshis
love blacks—they'realways asking for a picture with us. We are justlike
celebrities here,", with a laugh. attributes this to similarities in Somalia and
Bangladeshi culture, such as a shared religion, Islam, and common dietary staples
such as rice. When faced with any problems on the streets, the majority they now
a little Bangla ('bhalo achen?') also our Bangladesh friends they say (“Seetahay”)
which it means (how are you) goes a long way. But most of our friends are other
Somalia and Africans, pointing to the fact that for black students, a limited social
circle is the norm. Regardless, "Bangladesh is my second home, after Somalia,"

resolution under UN, UNSOM1991
Some of the significant missions were Somalia July 1993-February
1995). 49 Bangladesh participated in United Nations Operations in Somalia
(UNOSOMI & II) from1992-1995. TheUN described Somalia's vulnerable
condition in UNOSOMI & II as a continually deteriorating situation due to the
threats of the conflicting parties and the pressureof downsizing themission
caused by the withdrawalof European and American forces.

6. Bangladesh has agreed to give Tk 8.21 crore to the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) as debt relief for Somalia
DEC 201
Bangladesh has agreed to give Tk 8.21 croreto the InternationalMonetary Fund
(IMF) as debt relief for Somalia under the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC)
Initiative, as per a letter sent by the finance ministry to the Washington-based
multilateral lender.
Somalia, a majority Muslim nation justlike Bangladesh,
“Therefore, Bangladesh’s international image would benefit from the grant,” said
a finance ministry official.
The country's bid to help the war-torn nation comes after IMF Managing
Director Kristalina Georgievawrote to Finance Minister AHM Mustafa
Kamal, the IMF governor of Bangladesh, in December 2019 seeking
SpecialDrawing Right (SDR) 0.70 million, or Tk 8.21 crore.
Following 30 years of civil war and economic disruption, Somalia currently has
$5.3 billion in external debt.
On December 18 last year, the IMF’s executiveboard approved a financing
packagefor delivering full debt relief to Somalia under the HIPC.
The plan relied on contributions fromeach of the 189 IMF member nations to
providefunds that would help Somalia rebuild its economy.

7. Bangladesh, which recently became eligible for graduation fromthe least-
developed country bracketby 2024, decided to supportthe IMF’s debtrelief
programmed for Somalia to help alleviate poverty and assisteconomic reformin
the African nation.
To facilitate members’ contributions to the debt relief effort, the IMF will
distribute internal resources fromits Special Contingent Account and refunds of
deferred charges adjustments in an amount of SDR242 million when Somalia
clears in arrears to the IMF.
Members can voluntarily contribute all or partof their shares in this distribution
and donors areinvited to provideadditional cash grants, if possible, to closethe
financing gap.
The distribution can only take place once the fund has received satisfactory
assurances thatSDR242 million will be contributed for the purpose of Somalia’s
debt relief, said the IMF letter.
After Somalia clears its dues, it will become eligible for another financing
arrangementfrom the IMF at the HIPCdecision point if the African nation displays
progress through their Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers.
In 2008, a similar fundraising effortwas taken to help Liberia clear its arrears.
Some 102 IMF member countries, including India and Sri Lanka, contributed a
total of SDR547 million in a similar fundraising effortto help Liberia clear its
arrears.
However, during that time Bangladesh refused to donate to the funds.
CONCLUTION
this is my first article l wrotein this topic l would like to publish another one

8. Somalia-Bangladesh they did not shares historical, geographical, cultural, social
and economic ties over civilizations. The only think l can say is Many Bangladesh
went Somalia as a worker, and many Somalia came to Bangladesh as student, so
far l know there is no any embassy or High Commission in Dhaka and Somali
student in Bangladesh they areincreasing.
