    COUNTRY REPORT FROM BANGLADESH A. Introduction Bangladesh is a riverine country having a long seacoast along the Bay of Bengal. It is well known as a maritime nation in the world history having about 8,533 km of inland waterways and about 535 km of seacoast. The inland waterways, consists of several important rivers which fall into the Bay of Bengal. For obvious reasons over 90% of its trade is transported by sea and rivers. Hence, shipping and prudent seafarers are always considered to be the most important factor for development of the National economy. The history of Bangladeshi seafarers date back to British Colonial period when they earned good reputation in British and other foreign flag vessels for their hard work and sincerity. Before the partition of India, about 50,000 Seafarers from Bangladesh were serving on various foreign sea going vessels from the ports of Calcutta, Mumbai, Yangoon, Singapore, Colombo, etc. After independence of Bangladesh about 10,328 (January - 1972) registered Seafarers were enlisted in the Government Shipping Office. Due to advancement of Shipboard technology and Ship types, only 1,776 numbers of registered Seafarers were employed in 1972 on board National and Foreign flags vessels. Present employment position of the Bangladeshi registered Seafarers of various ratings, as of 31st August 2003 stands to 4,273, and Seafarers employed in domestic and foreign flagships stand to only 1,270. About 30 per cent of the registered Seafarers were employed while the remaining 70 per cent were waiting for jobs. This means that in average a Seafarer has to wait for about 2/3 years to come to his turn for employment.
