Reduce internet cost

Farhan Hoque, Department of Law, University of Dhaka
Internet has become one of the most important necessities of our life. But, unfortunately, the cost of internet is very high in Bangladesh compared to our neighbouring countries. The average cost of 1GB data in Bangladesh is around Tk. 300, which should not be more than Tk. 50 in any consideration. The vision of building a digital Bangladesh should not be confined to words only. The government should work to make it happen. Reducing internet cost can be the first step towards building a digital Bangladesh.
