“…The image of Bangladeshi seafarers abroad becomes a challenge to the growth of shipping industry in the country (Hassan, 2006). The use of false documents and forged visa often leads to distrust in the Bangladeshi employees (Hassan, 2006 Opportunities Identified Through Review of Literature Labour force: Bangladesh is densely populated, and a large chunk of the population consists of youth, which tends to provide large workforce for the shipping industry, which ultimately turns out as an opportunity for the country to spread its arms in the direction of growth of shipping industry (Hasan et al, 2017 andHassan, 2006).…”

Bangladesh has a rich shipping history. The country is dependent economically as well as socially and politically on the industry. While, the country is slowly regaining global recognition, the industry is no less on challenges. The seafarers face major issues due to the factors such as conditions of the maritime education and training institutes, forged documentation, negative reputation of the country, etc. Further, the seafarers of Bangladesh also lack skills and training when compared to the seafarers of the other developed countries. Moreover, the country lacks technological resources too, which makes it even more difficult for the seafarers to grow in the industry. The article looked at the different sets of improvements that can be made to the shipping industry and make it easy for the seafarers to get proper jobs in the industry. This study explored the challenges and opportunities for the seafarers and the industry though a review of literature.

Today, the desire to create a sustainable economy that protects nature, which is on the agenda of all countries of the world under the leadership of the United Nations, has led to the emergence of the concept of a Blue Economy. The economic order of the sustainability of the seas and oceans, which comprises three quarters of the world, is called the Blue Economy. The Blue Economy has a wide range of sectors such as fishing and aquaculture, coastal and yacht tourism, maritime transport, shipbuilding industry, deep-sea mining, biotechnology. In this study, the position of Turkey in the field of Blue Economy was tried to be analyzed by comparing the countries selected according to certain criteria (USA, China, Bangladesh and Greece) with Turkey. The data obtained using the archive-document scanning technique, one of the qualitative research techniques, was explained with descriptive analysis, and then the study was carried out by content analysis. The data for the blue economy are examined in a wider context, as a result of Turkey's shipbuilding industry, maritime transport, coastal tourism and trade fleet is in relatively good condition, although compared to other countries in the world such as China, this area is quite far from the data observed for a strong country. It can be stated that Greece, Turkey's neighbor, is in a better position compared to Turkey due to the fact that it holds the leadership of the merchant fleet in the world. Bangladesh has more biodiversity than Turkey due to its border with the Indian Ocean. As a result, Turkey has world leadership in any sector despite the fact that it varies from sector to sector compared to the related countries. This situation shows the need for Turkey to invest more in the field of the Blue Economy.
