Starlink, the satellite internet service owned by SpaceX, has officially launched in Bangladesh, providing high-speed, low-latency internet access across the nation. Monthly service packages are priced at 4,200 taka ($35), with a one-time setup fee of 47,000 taka. This launch is part of Bangladesh's efforts to ensure reliable internet access, especially in light of recent political unrest that led to service disruptions. The interim government, led by Muhammad Yunus, emphasizes that Starlink's service is resilient to potential future political upheavals.

The launch of Starlink in Bangladesh aligns with the company's strategy to expand its footprint in emerging markets, having already established operations in over 70 countries. This move not only positions Starlink as a key player in the Bangladeshi market but also highlights the growing demand for reliable internet services in regions facing political instability. The partnership with local firms to set up ground stations further strengthens Starlink's operational capabilities and market presence.
