Dear All:
Well, to the best of my knowledge, first laptop in Pakistan was marketed around ten years back with the brand of “INBOX”. Later several other efforts were made but price wars and rapid technological changes threw the local products out of the market.
We also need to analyse in detail that what Bangladesh has made and how sustainable is that particularly with the current advances in IPAD and copy IPAD with google chrome and other capabilities.
In the absence of an indigenous vendor base and large production facilities , competitive price can not be achieved. Not to speak of Pakistan /Bangladesh, even India which is much stronger in indigenous industry/production base is still not able to compete any electronics hardware with China. However, what is important in this case is the realization to identify our strong areas where we can perform better andcompetetive than China and they include value added micro controller applications and programming , hardware descriptive language/FPGA programming and application products /other value added soft technologies tailored to specific needs of micro and SME sectors are the areas which can transform and strengthen the indigenous technology base as well can significantly contribute in increasing technical exports of Pakistan.
Note: PTCL neither has any such vision nor they have the capability to produce IPADs/tablets these are all Chinese products which are being branded and marketed.
Kindest regards.
Sincerely yours
