Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will inaugurate the newly constructed 8-storey building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Thursday.
She will also confer the 'Bangabandhu Medal for Diplomatic Excellence' to one Bangladesh diplomat and another foreign diplomat based in Dhaka at a virtual ceremony.
Bangladesh Ambassador to Poland Sultana Laila Hossain and Japanese Ambassador in Dhaka Ito Naoki had been nominated for the award initiated last year, marking the birth centenary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
Sultana Laila Hossain has been recognised for her efforts amid the Russia-Ukraine crisis when several thousands of Bangladeshis left the former Soviet state and took shelter in Poland and other European countries.
Ito Naoki has been recognised for playing an important role in boosting the bilateral relationship between Dhaka and Tokyo.
On the occasion, the Prime minister will also unveil a book titled "Bangabandhu Corners around the World" and formally launch identical websites for all Bangladesh missions abroad.
