The Bangladesh Coast Guard ((ベンガル語:বাংলাদেশ কোস্ট গার্ড)) is the only maritime law enforcement force of Bangladesh. It is a paramilitary force which is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Home Affairs. Its officers are transferred from the Bangladesh Navy. The Bangladesh Coast Guard also performs the duty of maritime boarder security of Bangladesh. The headquarters is located in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Currently the coast guard has 1,282 personnel and 57 ships. A huge modernization plan named Coast Guard Goal 2030 has been undertaken to enhance its capabilities. == History == The Bangladesh Navy had been performing the duties of a Coast Guard in addition to own duties of maritime defence since the independence of Bangladesh. As time passed, the growing responsibility and workload became inconvenient for the Bangladesh Navy, with the increasing volume of policing duties at sea taking away from its primary role. The emergence of the Bangladesh Coast Guard was the result of the growing awareness in the Government for the requirement of a separate service to enforce national laws in the waters under national jurisdiction and ensure safety of life and property at sea. Following this the Coast Guard Act 1994 was passed by the Parliament in September 1994. Formally the Bangladesh Coast Guard in its present shape came into being on 14 February 1995 and started operational activities with two patrol craft received from Bangladesh Navy. The force is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Home Affairs. The Bangladesh Coast Guard motto is ‘Guardian at Sea’. The Bangladesh Coast Guard is a unique force that carries out an array of civil and military responsibilities touching almost every facet of the Bangladesh maritime environment. The force now has a zone, three bases, 18 stations, 10 outpost, 57 different categories of water vessels and eight pontoons along with 1,282 manpower.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Govt committed to giving 'Blue Economy' concept into reality: PM )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bangladesh Coast Guard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
