The first country in South Asia to adopt Huawei's 5G equipment officially launched 5G services

On December 12, Bangladeshi telecom operator Teletalk and China's Huawei company cooperated to officially launch 5G services in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.

The operators in Bangladesh are mainly GrameenPhone, Teletalk, SHEBA, PACIFIC, Bangladesh Telecom (Citycell), TMIB, etc., teletalk is a state-owned operator.

Bangladesh has been thinking about 5G for a long time and is eager to use Huawei equipment. Back at the Bangladesh 5G Summit on July 25, 2018, bangladesh's Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology partnered with Huawei and Robi to showcase 5G technology in Bangladesh for the first time. Sajeeb Ahmed Wazed, Adviser on ICT Affairs to the Prime Minister of Bangladesh, attended the opening ceremony of the summit.

Bangladesh has always attached great importance to the communications industry. Bangladesh is the fastest country to deploy 1G to 4G. Now, Bangladesh has one of the cheapest internet in the world. In 2018, the above-mentioned Adviser on ICT Affairs of the Prime Minister of Bangladesh said: "I hope that Bangladesh will continue to move forward and become one of the first countries in the world to deploy 5G." Thanks to Huawei for demonstrating 5G with their technology. “

According to bangladesh's "Daily Star" reported on March 9, in 2019, the total investment in Bangladesh's mobile communication industry was 36.957 billion taka. India has not yet launched 5G services, and in India's upcoming 5G test, it has deliberately excluded Chinese companies such as Huawei and ZTE, but this obviously does not help India's 5G development.
