Guwahati: Port of Rotterdam has appointed Amlan Bora as a representative for South Asia and will assist in collaboration between Netherlands, India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh

Bora’s engagement has been formalised through Dhanoni Advisory LLP. This will help the port of Rotterdam, and consequently the Netherland’s ambition to deepen relations with South Asian nations including India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
