COLOMBO (Reuters) – Sri Lanka’s telecommunications regulator has issued a licence to Elon Musk’s Starlink, the satellite unit of SpaceX, to provide satellite broadband services in the South Asian island nation from Aug. 12, the president’s media division said.

Sri Lanka’s parliament passed a new telecommunications bill last month, which amended the law for the first time in 28 years, and paved the way for Starlink Lanka to enter the country.
