Six foreign companies have expressed their interest in manufacturing mobile phone sets and laptop computers in partnership with the state-owned Bangladesh Telephone Shilpa Sangstha (Teshish) as a joint venture. Managing Director of Teshish Ismail Hossain told BSS that the letters of their expression of interest were sent to head of the Electric and Electronic Department of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) for scrutiny. The government floated international tender in December 2009 inviting the entrepreneurs as the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications had taken initiative to make the Teshish fully operative after long time. — BSS
