According to a World Bank report, Pakistan is not yet ready to adopt technology because it is dependent on a number of factors that must be addressed, including the lack of large unified blocks of available spectrum, increased availability of fibre optic networks, and increased availability of 5G smartphones and other affordable devices.
The Ministry of Information and Communication Technology published this World Bank report to assess Pakistan’s readiness to build 5G networks. According to the final study, Pakistan: Telecoms Advisory, 5G Preparedness Plan for Pakistan, the current telecommunications market in Pakistan has been studied to determine 5G capabilities by comparing it to adjacent nations and worldwide standards.

underdeveloped fixed network infrastructure, considerable impediments to the quick introduction of embedded software for linear infrastructure…
Pakistani Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) stated collectively that “the whole project’s readiness is essentially tied to supply and demand considerations, thereby providing a foundation (often collaboration between public and private sector initiatives) and financial viability.”
