1. Hardly people know, how BIG, how STUPENDOUS is/are the contributions of Private Security Services Operators, in the country. They have created job opportunities for 8 lacs rural youth. We supplement the efforts of the Law Enforcing Agencies in the country. Nearly 500 vehicles are used everyday by these companies to Transit Cash from one bank to another and to run / replenish over 8000 ATMs through out the country. We have provided employment to thousands of Ex-Servicemen, Officers, Police, BGB, Ansars personnels.
2. The photographs are of Ex-Servicemen with their Guns, who turns up almost everyday to our Headquarters for admissions & enrolments. These people are doing a great job, taking risks from morning to late night guarding Thousand of Crores of Taka everyday. You will be surprised to know they earn not more than Tk. 30,000.00 to Tk. 40,000.00 per month, which is so negligible if you compare the Service Charges of Armed Close Protection Agents in an Advance Country – It’s by hours, sometime US$ 500.00 to US$ 650.00 for a 8 hourly shift in a day. Can you simply imagine ???
3. Private Security Service is still looked down upon in Bangladesh. The normal guards are sometime paid only Tk. 6,000.00 to 7,000.00 per month. Thus the Guarding Quality is still far from satisfactory in the country. Hope someday it will improve. How ever, it’s good to see the confidence of the Government on the Private Security Operators, running such a sensitive business/ operations in the country.
