5G Roll llout and St Strategie ies in in Se Selec lected Develo lopin ing Co Countrie ies Recommendation: According UN actual about 3.5 billion people globally have no access to the Internet. Developing Countries need to collaborate and jointly identify their specific requirements (e.g. for Rural / Remote Areas) in short time, and address them to 3GPP to be considered for global 5G standardization and future mobile technologies. For having a strong voice, collaborate with bigger Developing Countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Egypt, Indonesia, Kenya, Mexico, Philippines, Nigeria, South Africa, Thailand, Vietnam and the Pacific Islands Telecom Association (PITA) for specific needs of islands and remote islands. 10-02-2020 Workshop on Standardisation for Developing Countries
