I would like to start by saying how very proud I am of the work Moulvibazar District Council (MDC) has completed to date as well as its plans for the future.

I was delighted to be asked to be the patron, and it is wonderful to be celebrating eight years since the council was formed.It is fantastic that you fly the flag for the Moulvibazar District of Bangladesh, here in the UK by striving to help others at home and abroad.

As you know, it is so important to build on this valuable work by continuing to grow as an organization. There always seems to be the need to support less fortunate individuals, and at the same time being able to help young people get a good start in life; they are both very enriching aspects of being connected to the work the MDC does.

Equally, recognizing the need to display our culture but embrace other cultures by working in communities must remain an integral part of our community’s development and one which I am sure you will continue to hone.

It gives me great pleasure to be able to write this short but warm message, and I am confident that the MDC will go from strength to strength in the years to come.
