be look into. Oyster sauce and smoked oysters are examples
of products that have a big demand in foreign countries.

There exist a limited market for such items in Dhaka which
will be about enough for the present resources from the
wild in Cox's Bazar and Teknaf areas.

on study/observation tours to foreign countries with developed
oyster industry. This could be in Japan, Thailand
Philippines, Malaysia or Singapore. Such will broaden their
knowledge of management and other activities in oyster

Trainees should operate more in order to master the technique,
thereby minimizing the mortality and expulsion of
