Vietnam delays 2G shutoff in wake of Super Typhoon Yagi

Bangladesh’s telecoms regulator has reportedly fined mobile operators Grameenphone, Robi Axiata and Banglalink for breaching regulations on promotional SMSs, despite telcos saying the regulations are impractical and too restrictive.

Vietnam will reportedly begin blocking signals for 2G-only mobile phones next month as part of its broader plan to fully phase out 2G service later this year.
