Mobile phone companies and BTRC


"The mobile phone companies in Bangladesh are doing businesses without giving any licence fee, which is not possible in other countries," said Saifur Rahman reportedly. Well they were able to do so because of our weak regulatory systems.

Where was our BTRC? After knowing the fact that Pakistan gave licence to Warid Telecom for $291m, why Bangladesh gave licence to Warid for only $50 million? What was the secret behind it?

If now we call "BTRC weak regulatory system" then why we need it?
