Despite a challenging economic climate,
@Jazzpk
invested PKR 37 billion in 2023 to bolster Pakistan's digital infrastructure. While the average monthly mobile data usage increased by 165% in Pakistan over the last 5 years, we're committed to meeting the nation's growing data
PKR devaluation has jeopardized the business case for telecom companies, as our license fees & interest on instalments are pegged to the US dollar. Last year 50% license renewal fee cost us PKR 44.5 billion, and this year, just 10% instalment alone costs over PKR 13 billion
The long-anticipated news of
@PTCLOfficial
acquisition of

Shutting down the internet is not a solution to anything. It creates more problems than it solves.
For almost 24 hours, 125 million Pakistanis have been without mobile internet - a critical tool in emergencies & productivity.
Telecom imports dropped 50% in the first 10 months of FY23 compared to FY22. Import restrictions have significantly impacted telcos' service expansion and quality improvement drive, posing a challenge to enhance customer experience.

and he is recovering well. My Jazz family and I have been praying for a few days now and will continue sending prayers his way.
Disappointing to see no relief extended to Pakistan's 195 million telecom users in the budget, who continue being subjected to highest telecom taxes in the world. We can't attempt any of our digital ambitions when Pakistanis bear 34.5% tax on the privilege of using the Internet.
Super excited as
