Garment industry in Bangladesh is facing multidimensional problems such as acute power crisis
followed by non tariff restriction, chronic labor unrest,
lack of infrastructural facilities, inadequate supply of
material and accessories, inability or lack of efforts to
diversify the products and markets, irregularities
relating to customs, bond, and shipping (Uddin and
Jahed 2007). These major problems disrupt the
production and increase the cost of production
significantly. Weak and inadequate infrastructures such
as poor energy supply, poor port facilities are the
common challenges facing by the RMG sector in
Bangladesh (Rahman and Anwar 2007). Another
problem is port congestion. RMG sector often faces
huge losses due to the inefficiency of Bangladesh port.
To remain competitive in the world market one of the
important
strategies
is
product
and
market
diversification (Rahman and Anwar 2007). Moreover,
natural calamity often affected garment industry. For
instance, due to the flood in 1998, garment order of Tk
1,000 (US$ 15,000 million) crore could not be exported
on time. More than 3 lakh workers were victim of the
flood (Quddus and Rashid 1999). There are some other
disadvantages that affect the competitiveness of RMG
sector. Hartals (Strike due to political reason) and
inadequacy of infrastructural facilities undermine
Bangladeshs position in the international market
(Abdullah 2005a). Furthermore, the productivity of
Bangladeshi workers is one-fourth of that of Chinese.
The main reason is low literacy rate. Only 25 unions are
active among 200 unions registered in the garment
sector. Local experts report that only 20 percent of
workers receive the minimum legal wage for all hours
including overtime (Clark and Kanter 2010/2011).
Empirical studies have proved that any expenses for
improving working condition are offset by the
IBAIS University, Dhaka, Bangladesh Page 59
BBA

Bangladesh.
It
suggests
that
better
export
diversification beyond clothing is needed garments
account for more than 75% of Bangladeshs exports
but adds that, still in the garment industry, export
increase is not to be taken from established.
Bangladesh is deeply dependent on exports make
driving in the manufacturing division, to afford high
efficiency and high-income jobs all envisioned in the
countrys Sixth Five-Year preparation. Lead country
economist at The World Bank, Sanjay Kathuria said:
While
Chinas
wage
growth
presents
main
opportunities for countries with less costly labor,
Bangladesh will need to beat significant bottlenecks to
make sure that its exports keep on to grow at the pace
seen over FY05-10, when dollar exports almost
doubled, The World Bank said the sooner export
increase would be critical to Bangladesh achieving
the rank of growth required to reach its ambitious goal
of appropriate a middle-income country by 2021.
The garments sector of Bangladesh has grown-up
remarkably and captured a rising share of the world
market. The World Bank said. But development in
exports cannot be taken for granted. Second only to
China, Bangladeshs garment exporting sector will need
to participate with the impact of an already huge base
and major market share in key markets. Exports can
grow quickly, the report suggests, but only if critical
bottlenecks are addressed the first of which is the
provision of successful trade logistics. Improvements in
this region would give the country a competitive
frame, ensuring that exports and imported input goods
are shipped on time, economically and reliably. Better
connections, enhanced customs dealings, better air
shipment ability and better rail services could reduce
lead times to complete an order by up to 21 days, the
