'Unknown' firm in Bangladesh got $29m: Trump
US President Donald Trump has criticised a $29 million US-funded project aimed at "strengthening the political landscape" in Bangladesh, stating that the money was awarded to a two-person firm that nobody had ever heard of, reports Ahsan Tasnim.
"$29 million to strengthen the political landscape in Bangladesh. Went to a firm that nobody ever heard of," said Trump, adding, "can you imagine you have a little firm. You get 10,000 here, 10,000 there, and then we get $29 million from the US govt. They had two people working in that firm, two people, I think they're very happy, they're very rich."
He went on to suggest that "they'll be on the cover of a very good business magazine pretty soon, for being great scammers".
