Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) has given preliminary consent to provide about 12 billion BDT for modernising waste management in Chittagong City. The grant will fund more than 50 modern waste collection vehicles, equipment for landfill operation, and cooperation to build a modern sanitary landfill on 28 acres acquired at Fetehabad‑Nandirhat.
In a meeting at the CSK city office, Dr. Shahadat Hossain and the JICA delegation said a specialist team from JICA headquarters will visit Chittagong in December to conduct a feasibility study; the final approval will depend on the study results.
JICA senior representative Hideki Osawa and his technical team are already working with CSK on design and cost estimation for the new landfill and will also provide technical assistance for the management and improvement of existing landfill sites.
