"Governance has been a perennial problem in Bangladesh both in public and private sectors. Against this backdrop, MRDI tries to present an in-depth analysis of the policies and operations of corporate houses in the country and their sweet-and-sour relations with the media, which has a catalytic role in promoting good governance. The analysis aims at finding ways to promote good corporate governance in the country through strengthening the media's capability to understand corporate issues and helping the corporate houses to develop their media relations."
