Muhammad Yunus invites Elon Musk to launch Starlink in Bangladesh

Bangladesh's interim government chief adviser, Professor Muhammad Yunus, has extended an invitation to Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, to visit Bangladesh and introduce the Starlink satellite service in the country.

In a letter to Musk dated February 19, Yunus expressed that Musk's visit would provide an opportunity to meet the young people of Bangladesh, who are expected to be key beneficiaries of this advanced technology.

"Let us work together to deliver our mutual vision for a better future," the chief adviser said in the letter.

The letter also said, "Integrating Starlink’s connectivity into Bangladesh’s infrastructure will have transformational impact, particularly for Bangladesh’s enterprising youth, rural and vulnerable women, and remote and underserved communities."

Professor Yunus on February 13 had a detailed phone conversation with Musk, the founder of SpaceX, Tesla, and X, to explore opportunities for future collaboration and to push forward the introduction of Starlink satellite internet service in Bangladesh.
