Bangla mobile growth and a debate about FDI

The 3rd world view

Why people still think that there is something good about being undersupplied by local inept monopolies versus getting good service from decent companies is a mystery.  But I guess this kind of thinking is the reason South Asia remains the sick man of the world.

  1. Hi,

    I am a bit confused with your remark. I never undermined FDI rather welcomed the competitions which will lower down the call rates. The whole issue was that Indian border region is using Bangladesh network and Bangladesh getting the revenue.

    While Diganta, who is an Indian, is a supporter of indegeneous companies.

    So I am a bit confused whose thinking is sick and who is complaining?

  2. This is an elite Professoros pundit thinking, thinking he knows best and riding on Dollors donated by NGOS, who has introduced a wonderful 10 into 1 rural to urban theory to promote phone growth in Sri Lanka when he was head of telecom regulatory authority.
