KARACHI:
Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) CEO and President Walid Irshaid has said that his company is going for 3G and it will be the first to compete for a 3G license in Pakistan. “We have no option but to succeed,” said Irshaid, while addressing the UAE Trade and Investment Conference 2011 held here on Friday. He further said that when Etisalat entered the Pakistani market, four other regional and international telecom operators followed the suit. “This was the impact that Etisalat created for Pakistan by attracting foreign direct investment for the country,” said Irshaid. He said that PTCL was the last company to enter Pakistan’s broadband market, and yet today it is the largest broadband provider in the country. PRESS RELEASE
