Plus we have ongoing discussions with PTD [Posts and Telecommunications Department] for 5G development in Myanmar,” he said. To kick off the partnership, Ooredoo Myanmar and ZTE Corporation will be considering potential test environments to deploy the telco’s 5G network. Verma said Ooredoo Group has been working towards bringing 5G technology to all the markets it operates in since 2014. It made history when it became the world’s first operator to launch a live 5G network in Qatar in May last year. According to Verma, Ooredoo Myanmar has been building a strong cooperation with ZTE since 2014, and both companies are excited to move further together.
