Citibank likes to pointlessly woo Bangladesh Bank

Something interesting popped up bangladeshcorporate.blogspot.com

I could not believe that Mamun Rashid would stoop so low [pictured left, on the right].

Decisive quote
"Citibank usually employs up-heel, pretty women who work as the corporate ambassadors while dealing with government counterparts and/or industry peers. It is heard that middle-aged or nearly old Bangladesh Bank officials sometimes find it really hard to say ‘no’ or behave impolitely to polished female fleet of Citibank N/A (Not Applicable huh?). So as the drooling eyes keep on relishing the eye candies, the deal gets sealed with a smile."

This procedure is pointless
All is fine, but as Grameenphone has shown us, Citibank does not need to go to this extent to get things done. It can be done cheaper. Just ask Anders Jensen, CEO of Grameenphone. GP made Bangladesh Bank redefine banking -to a point that GP is now becoming a full-fledged bank.
