Telephone Shilpa Sanqstha (TSS) is the telephone (manufacturing) company of Bangladesh. It is a public company which until now, as the competent minister honestly states, had not been for profit. But now, he adds, we would like some profit and therefore TSS is putting inexpensive laptops on the market with the collaboration of Malaysian companies: the cheapest model will cost 12 taka (about 110 euros). The Indian model – consumer goods at bargain prices, such as the famous Nano car – is leading the way. But TSS is ready for other adventures. As its website states, with touching candor, its machinery is numerous but “for the last 12 years” they have been idle. How to saturate them? Who has good ideas come forward. The machinery may be a little obsolete, but the labor is very cheap.
