Starting with the exciting news, 5G technology is set to make our lives better with faster internet and more. Some of the world’s wealthy nations are already enjoying its perks. In Pakistan, the man in charge of tech stuff, Dr. Umar Saif, has given the green light. He says that in less than a year, about 10 months or so, 5G will be available in Pakistan too. Isn’t that something to look forward to?
After talking with Maj Gen (R) Hafeezur Rehman, who leads the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority, the temporary Minister shared some news. They talked about hard issues like telecom, the upcoming sale of 5G, and giving out radio waves.
Is 5G on the Way to Pakistan Soon?
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves with the hype about 5G coming soon. The acting leader of the IT & Telecom sector is making some bold promises, but things aren’t looking great. A survey from Phoneworld says that most people—about 65%—are not pleased with how their current mobile service works. On top of that, many places in the country don’t even have reliable 3G or 4G. So, before we all jump on the 5G bandwagon, it’s important for the decision-makers to improve the phone services we already have.
At the gathering, the minister kicked off the discussion by outlining upcoming projects in the phone and internet sectors. Specifically, he touched on the exciting launch of 5G technology and how to make the best use of the various channels or frequencies. Wrapping up, he emphasized why it’s crucial to use these channels efficiently and laid out a strategic plan for rolling out 5G smoothly.
The temporary leader is really focused on solving problems quickly. He said that issues like taxes, phone network coverage, and managing radio waves will be actively taken care of.
In simple terms, the minister made it clear that making phone and internet services top-notch is a big goal for the government. Not only that, but they also stressed the need to upgrade existing services. This way, people can really get the most value and benefit from using them.
