From the Business for Peace Foundation's website (http://businessforpeace.no/2012-honourees):
"Latifur Rahman is the Chairman and CEO of the Transcom Group. The group’s growth has taken place under adherence to ethical and responsible business practices that serve as a guideline for other businesses in the region. The group is one of the highest corporate tax, VAT and import duty payers in Bangladesh, with a clean bank record. The companies in the group also adhere to labor standards and industrial laws. Other businesses in the region look up to Mr. Latifur Rahman for leadership and guidance for his integrity, ethical standards and business acumen – well illustrated by Mr. Rahman’s reelection as chairman of the Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and Industry for a total of seven terms."
