operator said in a statement
yesterday.
GSM Association, the apex body

The Asia Mobile Awards were
created as a platform to
showcase leadership and
diversity for mobile content,

“Banglalink has always been
the market leader in driving
value, firstly by making
mobile telephony affordable
and available to the masses,
and building on it thereafter
through our innovative
products and services,” said
Banglalink Chief Executive
Officer Ahmed Abou Doma.
“Being recognised on a truly
global scale by the apex body
is a remarkable honor and
something that we can be
really proud of as Bangladeshis.”
Banglalink, owned by Egyptian
Orascom Telecom, started its
operation in Bangladesh in
February 2005.
The second largest mobile
operator in the country
launched Krishi Jigyasha 7676
on December 19 in 2008 and
Babsha Jigyasha 7677 on August
28 this year as part of their
call centre-based service
Banglalink Jigyasha.
Since 2008, owners of small
and medium enterprises and
farmers have received the
solutions to their problems by
dialing 7676 or 7677 from
their Banglalink connections,
the statement said.
