On the 22nd anniversary of Bangladesh's iconic television channel NTV, I express my greetings and best wishes to the NTV family. Over the years, NTV has established itself as a popular and widely recognised brand among viewers both domestically and internationally.

On this anniversary, I hope that NTV will continue to uphold its reputation for providing objective news. Specifically, I believe the channel will play an important role in presenting the development and progress under Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's leadership, the journey towards realising the dream of the The father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, of building a prosperous Bangladesh, and showcasing the country's history and heritage, particularly to expatriates.

NTV has played an important role in maintaining expatriates apprised of Bangladesh's Liberation War, history, heritage, language, and culture, for which I am grateful.

NTV's unique programmes featuring expatriates' recreational activities and sufferings can be watched not only in Malaysia, but also in other countries across the world. This is why I feel NTV is equally popular with expats.

I wish NTV continued success and hope that it maintains equally recognised in the nation as well as globally. Joy Bangla.
