Chief adviser Muhammad Yunus has extended an invitation to Elon Musk, urging him to visit Bangladesh and launch the Starlink satellite internet service in the country. "Integrating Starlink's connectivity into Bangladesh's infrastructure will have a transformational impact, particularly for Bangladesh's enterprising youth, rural and vulnerable women, and remote and underserved communities," state-run BSS news agency reported on Sunday, quoting the letter.
In the letter sent on Feb 19, Yunus told Musk his visit would allow him to meet young men and women who would be among the main beneficiaries of this leading technology. "Let us work together to deliver our mutual vision for a better future," he wrote. Yunus has asked his high representative, Khalilur Rahman, to coordinate with SpaceX to ensure completion of necessary work to make Starlink ready for launch in Bangladesh within 90 days.
