Description
Description | The specific works to include in the Telecommunication Project are the installation of microwave systems between Dacca, Mymensingh and Bogra, and between Dacca and Sylhet, and the installation of coaxial cable systems between Kushtia, Natore and Rajshahi and between Bogra and Rangpur, as well as the provision of multiplex equipment. Dacca is the capital of the new nation, and the other towns mentioned are important population, administration and business centers. The Government and the suppliers are presently negotiating the transfer of these contracts to Bangladesh at the original contract prices; since the contracts are expressed in Japanese Yen, the US dollar equivalent now is somewhat higher. Nevertheless, assumption by Bangladesh of these contracts, which were awarded after international competitive bidding, would be advantageous since it would avoid renewed bidding, which would take time and almost certainly result in higher prices. Two short microwave/coaxial cable sections included in these contracts are among the less important items which will be financed from other sources, or deferred. |
