Country's leading mobile phone operator, Grameenphone, is offering free outgoing calls from Bangladesh to Turkey and Syria for the next three days, enabling anxious family and friends here to remain in constant touch with their loved ones stuck in the earthquake-hit regions.
"With the spirit of connecting people with what matters most to them now, Grameenphone has waived all International Subscriber Dialing (ISD) outgoing call charges towards Turkey and Syria till 15 February," the telecom operator said in a media release.
Grameenphone said it is the first respondent from the Bangladeshi telco industry to step up with such an offer of free international calls to Turkey and Syria.
