15 Countries That Lack Technology and Internet Access

13. BANGLADESH

Amid the huge partition of India and Pakistan, Bangladesh was the country that got the last end of the straw. The country has seen many turmoils in the last few decades. There have been civil wars, unrest, and lack of human rights.

While the country may have advanced in the last few years, there are still many strides to be done as Bangladesh continues to support low-paid manufacturing factories of high-end brands like Zara, H&M, and others.

Many of these factories have such horrifying working conditions that they’ve received worldwide media attention about the poor conditions but to no avail. The country still allows these factories to run since there are no strides in the technological department to generate revenue.

14. ERITREA

Eritrea is a dictator-controlled country with only one network operator for landlines and mobile phones. As expected, the company is controlled by the government itself and the call charges for them are incredibly high.

That is the reason why Eritrea less have access to the internet. So, most of them probably don’t even know what’s going on in the world. The rest of the people still live without any phone or internet.

15. TIMOR LESTE

The new nation is still under development, and much of its revenue depends on oil and gas projects that will run out in the next decade or so. That's the reason why this country is less connected to the internet and technology.
