The government will publish a special supplement on Bangladesh in the British daily The Times.
As many as 1.8 million copies of the 12-page supplement will be printed on Monday.
"This is part of an ongoing effort for image-building of the nation abroad," foreign ministry external publicity wing director general Shameem Ahsan told on Saturday.
The government is paying Upper Reach, a UK-based media agency, $150,000 or Tk 12.5 million, for writing the supplement.
The publication will contain interviews of the finance, foreign, industries and tourism ministers and that of the central bank governor.
"The private sector has been highlighted in the supplement. There is an article on the NGO BRAC," Shameem said. Another major issue covered in the supplement is risk to Bangladesh from climate change.
Upper Reach and the external publicity wing have been working together on the supplement. A team from the agency has already visited Dhaka and returned, while another is currently here, Shameem said.
Upper Reach prepares tailor-made country reports and publishes those through its media partner, The Times.
