I am an employee of a multi-national animal vaccines production company in Africa, USA and UK working as the senior public relation officer (PRO). There is an animal drug which our company ran out of the stock which is used in production of general drugs and injection for the animal and is only found in your country since ever we started making use of the medicinal supplement And i only have the contact address of the Local Dealer in country because i am the company senior public relation officer (PRO) that worked with the former director of our company before this present one came inception. The business deal is that you will contact our company director (as the local dealer of this animal drug) with the interest to supply our company this animal drug from your country who came across a publication notice sent to the Ghana chambers of commerce on the urgent need to the said animal drug. Which means you will have to buy this animal drug from the manufacturer were our former director use to purchase from through our company purchase officer who is also know more with our company directly and sell to our company at a higher price because our company has not been able to find another manufacturer else were and will be ready to buy from you at any cost due to the urgent production need of the drug and the profit will be shared equally among us. Your role must be played perfectly and the least I expect from you is betrayal. I don’t want my organization to know the contact address of the real manufacturer as well as the real cost of the product because of this my personal interest. Therefore Kindly revert back with your interest if you can play the role of the manufacturer and i will forward the whole detail to you immediately. Yours Faithful, Mr. Bongani Cayman Jnr.

Wali Kashvi: While I was searching for some information about Bangladesh, I came across your profile. I have a query and I am unable to find an answer for this and reading your profile, I thought I might as well ask you. I need to send some masks and other medical supplies to Bangladesh through a friend. He insists that we need a FDA certificate to send this to Bangladesh however manufacturers in India don't think we do. Bangladeshi friend has asked for a deposit to get this licence done for the seller. I am looking for some guidance on this to ensure I don't end up cheating my Indian brothers by providing incorrect information. Do you know if there is any such rule? Since you have extensive experience, wanted to check your views, if you have had dealt with this in the past or know anything about a FDA for medical products in Bangladesh. Sometimes it seems too fishy to me however and this person is not sharing any personal details with me. Looking forward to hearing your views. Warm Regards Wali Kashvi
