Greetings and thanks for your interest and comments. Yes, we have also plan to extend the do4D festival country wide base on the telecentre type business points. I think you understand the closing massage of the festival to the community "Anyone can access all these digital technology services from any telecentre type business points anytime whenever they need". And this is also the mass promotional event of the digital technology services and products, as well as the community orientation of telecentre type business points.
Thanks again for your comments, your comments always inspire my team to do the best for the better Bangladesh next.
