I think Pakistani market needed Warid, A mobile phone company which upholds pakistans’ image, so Warid was kinda new and had the right stuff to get into pakistani market. In Bangladesh, we have companies like Grameen phone which is strongly associated with Bangladeshi image, and we have the state-owned company teletalk. Here, Warid will not get the home country advantage.Anyway talking about something new, will Warid be able to provide it here, Just look at the Warid logo and slogan, seems to me, those are inherited from Aktel and Citycell. I wonder, how the market will take it, there’s nothing new in Logo(red-blue, half-circle, small and big fonts) and Brand Mantra (we care). We already have the color and the slogan in our market.
Now, How about some new offer, Warid will only be able to provide 3G communication, whereas, presently Grameen and Aktel is running at 2.5G. This could be the major strength for Warid, but for 3G content to operate, expensive handsets are required, so our rural people is not getting the facilty of 3G. I wonder how well the 3G thing will be successful in here. Then comes the price, I have got some information that, Grameen has reached the breakeven point at 2003, now its all profit and profit. SO Grameen can give the lowest rate if it wants, cos there’s nothing to lose for Grameen. i think everything else is there.
The miracle happened in Pakistan, which let Warid drive away Mobilink (an orascom company) and telenor from market, could face difficulty to produce any favorable result in Bangladesh for Warid. Besided, Banglalink (sister concern of Orascom) wouldn’t let it happen again, cos if Warid wins here too, Warid will take strategy to grab all the markets in all the country where Orascom is currently operating(feel too confident, u know what i mean). So there will be good fight and I will be here to watch it. Popcorn anyone
Extended Part:
