Despite the positive developments, the chairman highlighted the lack of government investment in the telecom sector infrastructure over the past five years. The Universal Service Fund (USF) has been the primary source of funding for the sector.
Looking ahead, the PTA plans to auction 5G spectrum in April of the following year. This move is expected to boost internet speeds and capacity, further improving the telecom landscape in Pakistan.
