Advocating for digitizing regulatory landscape in Pakistan through the introduction of 5th generation regulations, Chairman PTA added:

The digital divide is shifting from basic phones to Internet, with mobile broadband a key driver of growth in Internet access. The interaction of the ICT sector should stimulate growth in the digital economy alongside other sectors in Pakistan and it is essential to have a clear understanding of the complex relationships between regulatory policies and ICT growth.

“Media will play the most crucial role in poignantly addressing different issues in bringing 5th generation regulatory mechanism”
