Dhaka, July 25 (IBNS): Sajeeb Wazed Joy, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s ICT affairs adviser, on Wednesday said Bangladesh is going to be one of the first nations in the world to deploy fifth generation mobile technology.

Joy was quoted as saying by The Daily Star during an event in Dhaka: "This is my promise for the next election."

He was speaking at an event  ‘Bangladesh 5G summit 2018’ at Pan Pacific Sonargaon Dhaka.

No country in the world has commercially started the 5G service so far.

Some developing nations have been working on it.

Bangladesh will vote in the general elections in the next few months.

PM Sheikh Hasina-led Awami League is currently in power in the country.
