There have been delays due to faulty third party products such as antennas, cabling and minor manufacturing issues which have now been resolved.
"Manufacturing and shipment of the first 11,000 lines required for PeoplesTel is continuing at the production facilities in Malaysia and is being matched closely to the PeoplesTel network rollout requirements...approximately 2,000 customers are currently being connected by PeoplesTel utilizing equipment already delivered to Bangladesh."
