Initiatives and Plans

– Planning for second and third satellite. – Establish a Satellite operating company – Improve satellite management capability – Promote the use of satellite service in the national program:

  • The Disaster and Emergency Relief System
  • Aeronautical & Maritime Communication
  • Security: Military, Police and Diplomatic Mission

– Encourage the private sector to invest in providing services via satellite to the highland area:

  • Satellite Internet Broadband
  • Satellite HDTV

Currently there is no specific guideline for satellite

  • riented services in Bangladesh
  • These services are regulated by the common/ existing

frequency usage policy of the country.

Satellite service related special instructions are associated with ‘Terms and Conditions for frequency Usage’ while given permission to a new service

  • Formulation of ‘Landing Rights Policy’ and ‘Instructions

for Using Satellite Downlink Frequency’ are in progress
