BCCCI vote rescheduled to 25th of October
Bangladesh China Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCCI) Election Rescheduled for October
The Bangladesh China Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCCI) has announced a change in the date for its election for the 2025-2027 term. The new election date is now set for 25 October 2025, as confirmed by the election board on 23 July [1][3].
Initially, the election was scheduled for 23 August 2025, but it has been postponed by two months. The reasons for the rescheduling are not specified in the available sources [1][2].
The upcoming election will form a 25-member executive committee within the BCCCI, although specific roles or offices within the board were not detailed in the sources [2].
Members interested in participating in the election must pay their due subscription fees by 25 August 2025, as previously announced. The preliminary voter list will be published on 2 September, followed by the final voter list on 9 September, as previously scheduled [1].
The list of valid candidates for the election will be released on 30 September after initial scrutiny. The final candidate list is scheduled for publication on 5 October. The move aims to ensure a free, fair, and inclusive electoral process [1].
It's worth noting that the interim government appointed Nargis Murshida, joint secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, as the administrator of BCCCI earlier this year in March [1]. The decision to postpone the election was made jointly by the BCCCI authorities and the election board.
Here's a summary of the key information:

The rescheduling of the election, initially set for August 23, 2025, also indicates a potential reallocation of financial resources within the industry.
