Government telecom chief Faiz Ahmed Taiyeb pitched major industry changes during a heated hotel meeting about network licensing rules. The special assistant promised officials would listen to smart ideas for beefing up the national telecom blueprint. Taiyeb pushed his vision of complete digital makeover while defending plans to shake up the entire communications sector. He warned that license counts would depend strictly on company performance and meeting tough obligations. Private research groups could help telecom bosses figure out the perfect number of permits needed across Bangladesh.
Taiyeb blasted foreign companies for putting profits before national interests during the policy discussion. Mobile phone companies face losing millions of customers unless they fix terrible service quality problems immediately. Officials want to completely change how networks operate by switching focus from basic connections to advanced services. The government plans freeing up valuable radio frequencies while rebuilding the outdated system from scratch. Taiyeb bragged that previous administrations never created policies through such open democratic methods.
BTRC Chairman Major General Emdad Ul Bari defended gradual changes instead of sudden industry disruption. The retired military officer revealed that fewer than half of all Bangladeshis actually use internet services regularly. Bari assured nervous companies that migration plans prevent any license cancellations or permit losses. Post and Telecommunication Division Secretary Jahirul Islam claimed the new policy would attract both local and international investment money. Business leaders from foreign chambers and telecom associations attended the crucial strategy session.
