 I'd like to thank Argentina for their warm hospitality and ITU for their continuous support, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, excellencies. We all know that ICT and telecommunication are key enablers in achieving the SDGs. ICT can dramatically boost the uptake of SDGs supporting technology and services in five major ways. Speed and scale of ICT uptake, reduce deployment costs, growth of public awareness, rapid upgrade rate, low-cost digital training. Digital Bangladesh is an integral part of Vision 2021 of the present government led by Honorable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, which aims at introducing e-governance, encouraging science and ICT education, promoting ICT education development, attracting foreign investment, ensuring regional and international connectivity. The Vision 2021 digital Bangladesh concept, the sixth five-year plan, seventh five-year plan, all are actually aimed at achieving SDGs in the national perspective. Some of the successful initiatives undertaken by the present government are the UDCs. We have 5,257 UDCs, which are providing 116 public and private services, which has already provided 5.7 million services. It has created entrepreneurs, and the entrepreneurs have till so far earned 32.95 billion US dollar. So the UCDs actually has ensured that the underserved population can have access to information and also different services offered by the government. We have converted amongst 9,886 post offices, 8,500 post offices into post e-centers, which has created around 17,000 entrepreneurs, amongst whom 8,500 are women. So we believe that the already built post office infrastructures, maximum utilization can ensure digital literacy, entrepreneurship development, and banking for the unbanked population of rural areas, and thus reduce digital divide. E-commerce is also fruitful in achieving inclusive and sustainable economic growth. E-agriculture is promoting sustainable agriculture. We have successfully, biometrically verified SIMS, and now we have a national database. E-learning ensures inclusive and quality education for all. For example, multimedia classrooms and digital labs teaches portal free books for visually impaired ones. Training teachers to create digital content. And E-health initiatives like 24-hour mobile healthcare services, which are available in district and sub-district headquarters and hospitals, creating peer group of adolescent girls to promote adolescent health and hygiene, just with the help of a smartphone and laptop. Pregnancy health advice through SMS ensures access of marginalized population to healthcare. As most of the countries, our upcoming priorities are also cybersecurity, implementation of multi-stakeholders approach in achieving the SDGs, infrastructure, investment, and innovation. We have a two undersea cable connectivity and four international tele-storial cable. We have late 70,000 kilometer of optical fiber, and we will be soon having our own communication satellite. We actually wanted to make internet more affordable, and with a view to this, keeping this in mind, we have actually reduced the price of bandwidth significantly. And as a result, we have seen massive boost in data consumption. For example, our domestic data consumption was only zero in 2006. It has gone up to 40% in 2017, and broadband penetration was zero in 2009, and it has gone up to 20% in 2007. Though our target is 100% tele-density, 65% internet penetration, including 40% broadband penetration, to increase smartphone penetration in the country, the government has recently allowed tax exemption. Nominal tax has been imposed, and I have just recently, before coming here, I've inaugurated the first smartphone manufacturing plant in Bangladesh. To attract foreign FDI, Bangladesh government has investment-friendly policies. ATY is working in the innovation sector of the government's digital Bangladesh vision, and they have so far 12 women focused on 13 women-led innovation projects, which is one-third of the total innovation projects undertaken. At the same time, before concluding my speech, let us also give importance to women and elderly populations' basic ICT knowledge, because life expectancy is increasing. We have a huge elderly population, and we cannot leave them behind, because we must not forget our motto that no one is to be left behind. We are the member of ITU since 1973 that is right after our independence, so we are a trusted and it's a long friendship. We have been elected by you as a council member since 2010, and we hope to continue our journey with you in the future. Thank you. Thank you all. May Bangladesh live long.
