issuance of a license to a private operator for the provision of inter alia cellular mobile services to

in Bangladesh occurred in the late 1990s and the number of services in operation has subsequently

grown exponentially in the past five years. The incentives both from government and public sectors have

helped to grow this sector. It is now one of the biggest sectors of Bangladesh. As a populous country, it's

rapid growth in the coming years. The sector, particularly which of mobile phones, is one of the fastest
