Bangladeshi American Abdul Quader Shishir (CIP) led by Bangladeshi American Abdul Quader Shishir (CIP) has expanded its reach by opening an eighth branch in the busiest area of Jackson Heights, providing services to the elderly in New York in the spirit of native culture. Abdul Quader Shishir, President and CEO of All County Homecare, inaugurated the branch last Friday, 22nd May 2026, by cutting the ribbon in the presence of popular artists-actors-actresses of Bangladesh. At that time he mentioned, I used to do business in Manhattan. I have also lost many loved ones in the corona epidemic. In the process of waking up from that epidemic in 2022, I thought, what is the meaning of this survival? If I had died in this pandemic, what would I have left behind? That’s when I felt that the business I am doing is also serving people. But it will be better if we go to health care sector. From there come the healthcare sector.

At the same time, my wife Shifa Amin had a long-held hope of setting up a retirement home. He had a hobby of building an old age home in Bangladesh. But since we are in New York, there are no plans to set up a day care center here and our parents and seniors can avail the services in the country style. Starting from halal food, you are getting all opportunities for entertainment including chatting with peers in Bengali language. Abdul Quader Shishir mentioned that I have also arranged training for the staff to provide services in the center in a proper manner. After understanding the attitude of an elderly person, all arrangements are made to take care of him, provide medicine and entertainment. And that’s why I have established a training school with the approval of New York State. That journey begins at Hillside Avenue in Jamaica.

Since then, the program has become so popular for the elderly that 7 branches have already been established in Queens, Bronx and Long Island. Abdul Quader Shishir said, “My wish was to strengthen the service activities closer to everyone.” With that urge, an eighth branch was opened today in places like Jackson Heights. Hope everyone’s sincere cooperation will continue as before.The organization was inaugurated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony with community dignitaries moderated by popular expatriate presenter Sharmin Siraj Sonia. After that Shifa Amin, chairwoman of the organization’s healthcare group, gave a speech in the light of the various initiatives of ‘All County Homecare’ to provide services to the elderly and sick people in the environment of their own culture in this multinational society. Mainstream politicians Ghiyas Ahmed and Fahad Solaiman, community leaders Shah Shahidul Haque Saeed, Tariq Hasan Khan gave speeches appreciating the service activities of the organization in the past years. Actor Chanchal Chowdhury, actor Sajal, actress Moushumi, woman entrepreneur Kona Reza also presented information on the interest of expatriates in the service activities of All County Homecare. Dr. was among the prominent people. Masudul Hasan, Engineer Abdus Sobhan, Tariqul Islam Badal etc.

At this time, it was informed by the organization that in the last 5 years at least 5 thousand seniors have been served with sincere hospitality. Day by day the number of elderly people who are interested in getting services is increasing and this is the proof of the success of ‘All County Home Care’ in home care and day care services in accordance with existing laws.

Incidentally, the head of the service organization, Abdul Quader Shishir, has already received the approval of a bank called ‘Bengal Federal Credit Union’. It is in the process of being officially launched. And if it opens, it will be the first full-fledged bank owned by a Bangladeshi American in the US. That was also informed in this gathering. Also note,A few years ago, the Bangladesh government declared Abdul Quader Shishir as a ‘CIP’ in recognition of sending a large part of his hard-earned money abroad to Bangladesh on a regular basis.
