Robust infrastructure key to faster digitalisation
Robust infrastructure and competent manpower are essential to improve the ongoing digitalisation initiatives taken by the government.
Overall digitalisation is happening in Bangladesh at an extremely fast rate as witnessed in 2009 2009. The united states has noticed a paradigm change in this arena aswell.
One of the main challenges found in the sector is infrastructure. If we are able to make sure a robust infrastructure nationwide with the option of speedy and cost-effective internet, I would declare this digitisation may happen even faster than the ongoing pace.
The second challenge may be the availability of skilled recruiting. We must create an increasing number of skilled human resources, especially in trending technology considering the fourth professional revolution, which is really imminent.
So, if we can possess this skilled individual resource in Bangladesh together with robust infrastructure, I think we could have a perfect and great digital Bangladesh, which is actually the "Sonar Bangla" that people have been dreaming of. The father of the country Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as well spoke in regards to a Sonar Bangla, which is really the model edition of digital Bangladesh.
