Mobile phones for government offices
I refer to the letter (DS May 26) on providing mobile telephones for government officials. The bureaucracy has to keep pace with technology.
Landline telephones are going out of date (if not already the case), as FIXED wireless telephone network may become cheaper (capital, operation and maintenance) and easier to operate and maintain.
The government may review the future policy of fixed line telephone system in Bangladesh. ITU may advice on feasibility.
