In his speech, Prof. Dr. Ir. Gunawan Budiyanto, M.P., IPM explained that the inauguration of the Bangladesh Corner was a momentum to celebrate cooperation and brotherhood between Indonesia and Bangladesh. He also conveyed the university's openness to Bangladeshi students to study at UMY because UMY has a safe and comfortable academic atmosphere for foreign students. 

On the same occasion, Mohammad Mostafizur Rahman, GUP., NDC., PSC., explained that Indonesia was one of the first countries to give recognition to Bangladesh after its independence. "With the friendship that has existed for almost 50 years, we will continue to cooperate with Indonesia, especially in terms of academics and education," he said.

With the presence of the UMY Bangladesh Corner at the UMY Library, it is hoped that it can be a means for UMY and outside UMY students to be able to get information and knowledge about the country of Bangladesh and become a "home" for Bangladeshi students who are studying at UMY.
