Last month, the Federal Cabinet approved the issuance of Policy Directive to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) under Section 8 of the PTA (Re-Organization) Act, 1996. This would allow and enable testing of 5G technology in Pakistan while remaining within the regulatory environment. The decision came in at a meeting held with Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi in the federal capital.

In Pakistan, Wi-Tribe has already made the shift to LTE Advanced, and this move to 5G will be a tremendous milestone for the local telecommunications and technology industry. During his keynote speech, Dr. Shah elaborated several projects and initiatives taken by the regulator to facilitate and mobilize the local economy.

about
CWPK Legacy
Launched in 1967 internationally, ComputerWorld is the oldest tech magazine/media property in the world. In Pakistan, ComputerWorld was launched in 1995. Initially providing news to IT executives only, once CIO Pakistan, its sister brand from the same family, was launched and took over the enterprise reporting domain in Pakistan, CWPK has emerged as a holistic technology media platform reporting everything tech in the country. It remains the oldest continuous IT publishing brand in the country and in 2025 is set to turn 30 years old, which will be its biggest benchmark and a legacy it hopes to continue for years to come. CWPK is part of the SPIN/IDG Wakhan media umbrella.
