Pakistan to auction 5G spectrum tomorrow ahead of phased rollout in major cities

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan will hold an auction for 5G spectrum tomorrow, Tuesday, as the government prepares to launch next-generation mobile services in five major cities in bid to improve Internet speeds and connectivity, top officials said on Monday. The development comes at a time of mounting pressure on Pakistan’s telecommunication networks and Internet service providers, with users and businesses frequently complaining of slow speeds and disruptions as a limited spectrum struggles to serve the South Asian nation of over 240 million.
