More bandwidth for Bangladesh!

> The country was linked to a submarine cable in 2006 at a cost of $35.1 
> million. The SMW-4 cable has a capacity to handle a 120 Gb bandwidth, 
> of which Bangladesh currently subscribes to 24.12 Gb.
>
> The country uses 23 percent of its capacity domestically. Bangladesh 
> Submarine Cable Company Ltd handles the lone submarine cable. The 
> existing cable landed through Cox's Bazar to Dhaka.
>
> The demand for an alternative submarine cable has been raised by the 
> internet based entrepreneurs in last few years. The government also 
> had a plan to bring another submarine cable through private sector 
> initiative.
