Agency: GovTech is looking at three possible aspects in reducing data charges by fifty percent as per the government’s goal of making Bhutan a high-income GNH economy by 2034.
An official from GovTech said, “Through consultations in technical groups, we are looking at three to four proposals. A short-term, a mid-term, and a long-term proposal.”
In the short-term proposal, they said, is the reduction of data charges by 50%. In doing so, they will also review on the quality of the internet service since they do not want the quality of the service to be impacted after the reduction of the charges. They will also be looking at the impact on the revenue of the operators.
