Malaysia's Special Envoy to South Asia on Infrastructure S Samy Vellu is meeting Communications Minister Obaidul Quader on Sunday to discuss details on its proposal to build the Padma bridge.

The meeting began around 11:45am. Vellu is leading a seven-member delegation.

The envoy will also meet Finance Minister AMA Muhith on the proposal submitted on Jun 28, according to the programme schedule of the ministers.

Vellu is also scheduled to visit the project site.

Malaysia expressed its interest in financing Bangladesh's largest infrastructure project after the World Bank cancelled its pledged $1.2 billion fund.

Dhaka and Kuala Lumpur signed a memorandum of understanding on Apr 10 in presence of the Malaysian Prime Minister. On Jun 28, Malaysia submitted a draft proposal to Bangladesh government to sign the agreement.
